The King Loves (LOVES!) the Eagles' Draft!

We firmly believe you can never have enough NFL Draft coverage -- both pre and post. And so it is we direct you to Peter King's Monday Morning Quarterback Column today. He can't speak, errrrr, write highly enough about what Your Our Philadelphia Eagles did last weekend. (To read it, click HERE.) Some bits and pieces:

I can't imagine a team that helped itself more on offense in April than Philadelphia.

What the Eagles did on the second day of the draft -- still unnoticed eight days later; no one's said a word about it -- is one of the greatest feats of trading down and getting value for the future that I've ever seen. And I mean ever.

But the upshot of that trade, and four others within five hours, left the Eagles as the power players in the 2010 draft.

If I were a football fan looking for a team to root for, I'd pick the Eagles, and what they did on draft weekend is a big reason.

Wow. Double wow. Long live The King!
