The Philadelphia Eagles have a strong offensive line that helped them win the Super Bowl. Maybe, though, Kenyon Green wasn't a good enough offseason trade acquisition. That's what The Sporting News senior NFL writer Vinnie Iyer thinks.
He believes it so strongly that he suggests the Eagles draft an offensive lineman at No. 32 overall in this year's NFL Draft. The projection: North Dakota State offensive guard Grey Zabel.
"The Eagles replaced Mekhi Becton with former Texan Kenyon Green, but he was a real liability in Houston last season. Zabel would be a better fit as a longer-term complement to Landon Dickerson and Cam Jurgens," Iyer writes. Zabel, at 6-foot-6, 312 pounds, fits in on the giant Philadelphia line.

It still might not be the biggest need for Philly, but if you get the right guy on the offensive line, you're set with a great chance to run it back.
