Are Philadelphia Eagles Done Dealing After Kevin Byard Trade?
The Philadelphia Eagles made the first big splash of the trade deadline season, trading for Tennessee Titans defensive back Kevin Byard for two late-round draft picks and Terrell Edmunds.
But with the clock still ticking before Tuesday's 4 p.m. ET deadline, could the Eagles make another move?
It's hard to find flaws in a team that is 6-1 coming off a Super Bowl appearance, but the Eagles have always been aggressive and want to hoist the Lombardi Trophy this season rather than watch their opponent do so.
When looking at the team and what they could acquire, the defense looks pretty solid, especially after the Byard deal. If anything, the team is looking for depth, and could look to add on the offensive line.

Lane Johnson was questionable this past week with an injury, but he was able to play and make a large impact in Sunday's win at home against the Miami Dolphins. Jalen Hurts dealt with a knee injury and sported a brace in the second half of the game, so keeping him upright is the most important thing for Philadelphia.
Perhaps making a play for a player like Denver Broncos offensive tackle Garett Bolles could make a difference and give the team a boost in the trenches. While Bolles' price may be high, acquiring a player who could provide depth and protect Hurts would give the Eagles an even more successful deadline.
The Eagles are back in action Sunday against the Washington Commanders. Kickoff is scheduled for 1 p.m. at FedEx Field.
