RAM JAM: Eagles Have a Busy Day - Dick Jauron, Mike Vick and New Punter Durant Brooks

- The Eagles have hired Dick Jauron to replace Brian Stewart as Defensive Backs Coach. "Jauron and Eagles head coach Andy Reid are close friends and worked together on Mike Holmgren’s staff with the Packers in the mid-1990s...Jauron served as the Bills’ head coach from 2006 through Week 10 of this past season, going 24-33 before getting fired in November." First task to accomplish with the DB's - tackling. Can't win if you can't tackle, and it was a huge problem all year long. (via PhillyBurbs)

- Michael Vick to remain in Eagles green? "NFL Network's Michael Lombardi reported Tuesday night that the Eagles, suddenly, plan to keep quarterback Michael Vick. Lombardi says the Eagles feel as if they're "in a luxury position" with regard to their current quarterback group. They have Vick, probable future starter Kevin Kolb, and five-time Pro Bowler Donovan McNabb signed through 2010." (via profootballtalk.com)

- No more shankapotomus! In what seems to be a move to replace the incosistent Sav Rocca, the Eagles have signed punter Durant Brooks to a 2-year deal. Dude looks awesome. . .


- Schmidt and Morandini will be in Clearwater for Spring Ball. "Former Phillies Mike Schmidt and Mickey Morandini will return to Clearwater, Fla., as guest instructors for the Phils in spring training this year, the team announced yesterday." (via Inquirer)

THIS GUY SUCKS: Check out this video of a high-school volleyball coach pegging one of his players in the head with a ball. Guy deserves a beat down. At least he issued an apology.


- SONG FOR THE DAY:
