There's this nugget from WalterFootball.com's latest update. 'It's no secret Philadelphia has serious interest in Smith. Sal Paolantonio first spoke of it on 97.5 the Fanatic. "From what I'm hearing the Eagles are serous about Geno Smith and it's not a smokescreen. They're dead serious," he said. The Eagles then sent their entire contingent to West Virginia's Pro Day. I might as well capitalize ENTIRE because owner Jeffrey Lurie was there too. Lurie has only visited one draft prospect as the Eagles' head boss. That was Donovan McNabb. The Eagles' interest in Smith shouldn't be a surprise. They need a quarterback - the current starter will be around for only one year, while Nick Foles doesn't fit the offense - and Smith would be perfect in Chip Kelly's scheme." Andy Reid has maintained a good relationship with the Eagles' ownership. They also supposedly spoke with one another at the Combine. If Philly wants Geno that badly, they'll obviously have to leapfrog Jacksonville & Oakland to get him. I think a trade/deal might already be in place.
