Bruce,

Before the draft, what do you think were the Eagles major need or needs?

Do you think Joe Banner and company addressed this need or needs?

What players do you think will make an impact right away?

What players are guys which were added for depth?

Of any of the picks, which one is a "diamond in the rough"?

Which pick if any are you scratching your head, thinking why did they draft this guy?

On the current roster, what player's job is in jeopardy? In other words, the Eagles drafted guys today, what veteran guy or guys because of bad performance, injury, or salary reasons may not make the roster?

Do you think with the players picked up in free agency and the draft, the Eagles can get to the next level in 08? ie winning the division and perhaps Super Bowl

Please email your thoughts to nygmennfl@gmail.com

Thank you,
glenn

Hey Bruce,

This is Zander Freund, Bleacher Report's Content and Community Director.

Just saw this: http://www.philadelphiaeagles.com/news/Story.asp?story_id=15321

Did you write the original article on the Eagles website? It is in violation of Bleacher Report's Terms of Use to publish articles under your name that you did not write.

Please get back to me and clarify the situation. I'm not trying to get you in trouble, just trying to deal with the situation appropriately.

If you didn't write the article, I'll just go ahead and delete it. Let me know.

Bruce,

After the draft is over, I would like you to comment on the Eagle draft selections. Please email me at nygmennfl@gmail.com. I will post them on my Giants blog.

I enjoyed reading your article about the Eagles upcoming season. I like your passion.

As a Giants fan, I think if the Eagles stay healthy and find a wide out for McNabb, I think they can win the division.

be well.
