and shady mccoy as an asset that netted two good players for a team with as many potholes to fill as our streets. >> the result of the money that was freed up and the way we look at it we got alonso and maxwell for lesean mccoy. >> chip has flooded the local market with eagles jerseys suddenly dropped in value. mccoy's number 25 still represents the franchise all-time leading rusher but his two can be bought at a discount. despite the coach's best efforts to explain his decisions some eagles fans still have roughlied feathers. >> they're dumb for trading aware their best player and getting people who are injured for the past five years. >> i don't understand what's going on. so i'm kind of hoping we'll get a good team. of year i've rooted for them, been here, what, 40 years in philadelphia region, and we've yet to win a super bowl. >> all right. later in sports, chip will clear up his expanded duties and how that all came about. did he push howie roseman out of office? that's ahead in sports. >> so many pressing questions. beasley reece the sports director for us. we'll see in you a

bus stop buddy is a big eagles fan, so, is he wearing the shady mccoy jersey today? journey maclin, how about nick foles, number nine jerry? >> oh, jerseys out-dated now so we just put them in the fox 29 gear. if you can see him because as you can see, there is plenty of fog out there this morning, and some showers as well. so, keep that in mine. it gets bet they are afternoon. now, national weather service has lifted just now almost all of our dense fog advisories except, for out in lancaster county, the visibilities not quite meeting the cry tear y but it doesn't mean you're not going to run into fog. there still will be some fog that cloud on the ground out there, all this moisture still in the air some occasional showers, and snow still on the ground in some places. we did have 10 inches in some places on thursday. so it will still be hanging around for little while. anyway, 45 degrees right now. sunrise at 7:19. eventually we do get some sunshine, areas every fog scattered showers this morning, it could end up being the mildest day of 2015 so far. so that is you

trading lesean mccoy is gigantic gigantic. he's arguably the best player on the eagles offense. but sports really is about change. now the one negative and i'm sure what chip kelly was looking at because he's in all the sports science mccoy has had more carries than any running back in the nfl the last two seasons. that's not a good thing for a back and it short steps careers. it's obvious that's a big reason chip moves on but the player of the eagles got in linebacker alonso is a really good player according to the people that i've spoken with, and brian baldinger thinks the eagles won in this deal. >> we got to see how the eagles spend the money so we don't know yet. it's an incomplete but i would think right now that the eagles got the better deal because i think running backs can be replaced. it's hard to free up money and then how you allocate those resources to get what you really want, what you really need fixed, they now have that opportunity. >> all right. i think when the free agency opens next tuesday the eagles will be big players in signing players. it will be a fre
