Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Although there was more money on the table from a couple of other teams, ESPN.com insider John Clayton reports that Weaver felt more comfortable with the offensive opportunities in Philadelphia. ... Weaver is a fullback who can handle a lot of duties. He gets a few more carries than most fullbacks. He had 33 rushing attempts in 2007 and 30 in 2008. He's also a decent receiver out of the backfield. He caught 39 passes in 2007.
