Another Fullback?

Thanks to Bama for letting us know the Eagles have just acquired yet another fullback/competent special teamer to add to the mix:

The Eagles acquired fullback Luke Lawton from the Indianapolis Colts on Friday for a conditional 2009 draft choice.

The 240-pound fullback appeared in 11 games for the defending Super Bowl champions in 2007. He carried the ball five times for 13 yards and gained 29 yards on four catches, including a touchdown. Lawton also played a role on the Colts' special teams unit.

Sounds to me like Klecko not working out at fullback.

Also, "conditional" could mean a lot of different things.  Like maybe zippy if he doesn't make the team.

No cuts announced yet.

Spoke too soon. Looks like perennial training camp wideout Bill Sampy is the first to go.

Let's be frank, it's not going to take much to make us forget Thomas Ta-what'shisname.
