The Philadelphia Eagles have been looking for a RB to take away some of Brian Westbrook’s work load and they got their man with LeSean McCoy.  McCoy is a lot like Westbrook as he’s a good receiver who often makes the first tackler miss.  He is a tad short at 5’10″ but he does have some power on his 215 pound frame.  McCoy played 2 seasons for the Pitt Panthers appearing in 25 games (22 starts) in which he carried the ball 584 times for 2,816 yards (4.8 ypc) with 35 TD runs.  He also caught 65 passes for 549 yards (8.4 avg) with 4 TD grabs at Pitt.  This was another outstanding pick for the Eagles as McCoy has a lot of upside.
