    The Eagles shelled out nearly $40 million dollars over six years to have Stacy Andrews play right guard or right tackle. But head coach Andy Reid said Tuesday that Andrews could amount to being a very expensive backup. When asked about Andrews' progress from offseason knee surgery, Reid made sure to heap praise on reserve lineman Nick Cole and said the right guard job is a competition between the two. "Yeah. With Stacy's situation it surely is," Reid said. "I wouldn't count Nick out of it. We think Stacy is going to be able to work in there and do that. I think it's a great situation to have." -- "There are not a lot of teams that have as many starting quality offensive linemen as we do, or as we think we do, and that helped us last year as we went through the season."
