They got younger, more athletic and stronger at 2 key OL positions. You could make the argument they overpaid but now they are still sitting on a 1st round pick and one less hole to fill.
I agree. Philly put themselves in position to over pay cause they had the extra #1 from last years draft. I like this move and Philly's FO knows what they're doing.
