Brodrick Bunkley agreed to a six-year contract with the Philadelphia Eagles on Friday, ending the first-round pick's two-week holdout.

Bunkley, the 14th overall selection in the NFL draft, agreed to a deal worth $13 million, according to an official within the NFL. The person, who spoke on condition of anonymity because terms weren't publicly disclosed, said $10 million of that money is guaranteed, and the maximum value of the contract could reach between $25-$30 million with incentives.

Let's hope he can replace Corey Simon. One of the more bone-headed moves of the Eagles' brass last season was cutting Simon loose so close to the start of the regular season. The team never replaced him on the defensive line and he went on to seriously help improve the Colts' DL.

Still I'm not totally sold on Bunkley.
