UPDATE: Jay Glazer reports that the deal is done pending a physical and the Eagles gave up the 28th pick, a second day pick in the year’’s draft and a late-round pick in 2010. If that is the case, it is a reasonable price to pay for a two-time Pro Bowler.
Quick post, sources at ESPN are reporting that the Philadelphia Eagles and Buffalo Bills are close to working out a deal for two-time pro bowl left tackle Jason Peters.
Peters has been unhappy with his contract for nearly two years and the situation has snowballed to the point where the team may feel it cannot be resolved. Peters is a young LT that is still developing at the position but has already been to two pro bowls.
The addition of Peters would give the Eagles a formidable duo at the tackle position with Stacey Andrews manning the other bookend.
The price tag has not been confirmed but early reports had the Bills asking for a first round pick in exchange for Peters. More details as they come.
