Rams-Eagles: Which Eagle Would Be Best For The Rams?

In taking a look at the Eagles' roster, there's an abundance of talent.

LeSean McCoy is perhaps the best RB in an Adrian Peterson-less 2014 NFL, topping 1,600 rushing yards a year ago. Behind him is Darren Sproles, the Week 2 NFC Offensive Player of the Week and the Week 4 NFC Special Teams Player of the Week. Nick Foles threw 27 TDs and just two interceptions in 2013...and matched the latter total in Sunday's game against the 49ers alone. And he's not suffering for targets. The Eagles boast a strong wideout corps with Jeremy Maclin, Jordan Matthews and Riley Cooper with Zach Ertz at tight end to boot.

Defensively, the 3-man front is just now coming into their own with just five years of experience shared among Fletcher Cox, Bennie Logan and Cedric Thornton. The linebackers are more seasoned, and arguably more talented, with guys like Trent Cole, DeMeco Ryans and an up and coming (but also currently injured) Mychal Kendricks. Former Ram Bradley Fletcher holds down one of the CB spots, though it's not a strong unit.

Former Rams punter Donnie Jones is featuring well, though he is getting a ton work. He's punted 20 times in the Eagles four games, compared to Johnny Hekker who's punted just nine times in the Rams' three contests.

But who would I take from the Eagles?

Free safety Malcolm Jenkins.

Jenkins is in his first year with the Eagles after the Saints moved to take Jairus Byrd in the offseason. All Jenkins has done so far is rack up an interception in each of the last three games, including the one last week he took 56 yards for a touchdown. It's a sight Rams fans might have recognized, recalling the Rams' 2010 meeting with the Saints in which he intercepted two Sam Bradford passes taking one 96 yards for the TD.

Having a safety with Jenkins' pass defending chops would free up T.J. McDonald to be more active underneath to say nothing of the help he'd provide corners with over the top coverage (something the Rams could have used against the Cowboys when Rodney McLeod failed to tell the corner to stick with Dez Bryant...).

There are plenty of options, but if I had my pick of any Eagle, Jenkins would be in horns.
