the eagles weren't exactly paper champs though. they brought in 1 high profile name on offense and 1 high profile name on defense.
i'm talking more about teams that bring in a couple high profile names on both sides of the ball, not just one on each.
plus the eagles were already a very good team just adding 2 players is a good thing in a situation like that. a team that is struggling , on the other hand, can be hurt by adding to many new guys.( previously the redskins )
