Weaver Wins One For The Fullbacks

The Eagles and super-amazing fullback Leonard Weaver reached an agreement on a 3 year deal worth $11 million with $6.5 million guaranteed.  That effectively makes Weaver the highest paid player at his position.  And he should be.  No fullback meant more to their team that Weaver did last year.

This was an obvious move for the Birds as the signing was never a matter of 'if' but 'when'.  Fullbacks are a lost position in today's NFL and has always been the least glamorized "skill" position.  It's nice to see Weaver getting his.

It's even nicer not having to worry about some terrible, out of positon player being forced into the fullback role.  And the flame tattoos.  Can't forget about those.
