The people's choice in Philadelphia ended up being the Denver Broncos' choice with the 12th overall pick.

Denver, in somewhat of a surprise, took Georgia running back Knowshon Moreno, who was considered by many to be a perfect fit for the Eagles' system.

While that might be bad news for Eagles fans, it might even be worse news for former Eagles running back Correll Buckhalter, who had been first on the Broncos' depth chart after signing with them as a free agent in March. Buckhalter could again find himself as a backup, a role he played with the Eagles his entire career.
