By tomorrow, winds gusting to 17 out of the southwest thats a big warming wind for us, and by tomorrow night, winds out of the south at about 30 miles an hour through south jersey about 25 miles an hour gusts in philadelphia. So dont expect tomorrow night to be a cool one with a strong southerly wind. Thats a good sign of a mild night as we look at the rain accumulating for friday quarter inch to and a half inch expected in the afternoon. Overnight 44 in the city. Arthritic in the suburbs with patchy frost in our rural areas. Tomorrow 74 degrees mostly sunny but windy with those southwest winds gusting to 30 miles an hour.

The eagles made trade today. They hope gets them the quarterback of their future. Eagles traded with cleveland and get the number two pick this year and fourth round pick next year. The eagles gave up the eighth pick this year along with third and fourth round pick next year. They gave their number one pick in 2,182nd round pick. Sam bradford will be the starter this season. There is risk with first round picks and Howie Roseman broke it down for me. You look at first round picks i mean historically 40 of the first round picks fail at every position when you get into the second round its about 50 . The third round its 70 miss rate but the position is the importance of the position. When you say to yourself theres nothing more than important than the quarterback position, and not having to play that guy right away, developing them the rye way, then for us, it made a lot of sense.
