Talent evaluator extraordinaire Phil Savage has been hired by the Eagles as a Player Personnel Consultant for the upcoming April draft. Savage has extensive experience running a draft room from his time in Cleveland and Baltimore. He was part of the decision-making process that netted 16 Pro Bowl players during those years.
Now, this is a move I can get firmly behind. Savage knows his stuff. However, I do find it a bit odd that a week after elevating young Howie Roseman to GM, the Birds then run out and find one of the top draft gurus in the biz. I give Howie props for admitting he might need a little extra assistance, but I thought he was supposed to be ready to roll.
In any case, this could end up being one of those under the radar moves that pays off big. We shall see.
