Eagles came to terms with two important players on each side of the ball in the last two days.  Restricted free-agent, Joselio Hanson (52 tackles, 1 sack, and 1 fumble rec.), was the nickel corner last year with Lito Sheppard being plagued by injuries for a good part of the season.  This re-signing news should surprise no one after a solid performance by Hanson in 2007 showing heart and decent cover ability.  Don’t expect him to create any turnovers, as he hasn’t had an interception in any of his three NFL seasons, but he can prevent a receiver from coming up with the ball.  All things considered he’s a great option at the nickel spot and worth the $1.47 million tender he received.  This also was a great move financially for the Eagles; the Birds get a proven cover-corner with a low price tag in the nickel spot instead of trying to groom a rookie with the possibility of paying more.  The Eagles used their franchise tag on L.J. Smith (236 yards and 1TD) early in the free-agency period to lock him up.  He’ll be making the average of the top five tight ends in the league, a reported $4.5 million, which he doesn’t deserve.  The Birds are trying to make a serious run for the Superbowl and they wanted the most experienced tight end possible, but look for this to be Smith’s last year as an Eagle.  They have serious depth at the position and maybe a future starter in second-year man Brent Celek.
