SIMON SAYS YES TO $11 MILLION DEAL WITH EAGLES: Cory Simon, the 6-foot-2, 294-pound defensive tackle out of Florida State, speaks to media in Cleveland recently after he signed a five-year contract with the Philadelphia Eagles worth a reported $11 million, including a $6 million signing bonus. "Finally, finally, finally," said Simon, who had missed two weeks of training camp due to contract negotiations.
