Default Eagles (to) release Westbrook (on March 5)

Per Schefter and Lombardi.

NO! His knee is screwed by all accounts.

Starting to see some movement now....

Too bad on Westbrook. Knee, ankle, head....

Great, great talent.

I think this was inevitable, with Eagles drafting a running back last year.

Wonder how him being released affects LTs free agency value.

Who will teams target first?

If he can stay healthy, Westbrook is better at this point, cause LT is physically spent, he just doesn't have it anymore.

IMO LT has a better chance of the one last hurrah season (a la Corey Dillon's first year with us) than Westbrook. I think LT lost a step more due to the collective toll the position takes on a player where as I think Westbrook has a specific problem with his knees.

I would stay away from both and it is too bad because they each had styles that would seem to be a great match here.

No question. Based on what I saw last year, he seemed to still have the ability make people miss.

Lt is done. Stick a fork in him. Westbrook's e-light is on, but i'm sure there is a team out there that will give him a shot, just not the Pats.
