I Know they traded #85 to the Giants for #91 & #164 after that, I cannot find any info on where #91 went. was it lost? did they use it to obtain Hobbs?
If any one has the answer let me know.
Overall I liked the direction of their picks, It puzzles me why they wouldn't get a TE.or DB, with #91 instead of having it disappear without a trace.

N.Y. Giants acquired a third-round pick (No. 85: Ramses Barden) from the Eagles in exchange for a third-round pick (No. 91: Deon Butler) and a fifth-rounder (No. 164: Thomas Morstead)

Seahawks acquired a third-round pick (No. 91: Deon Butler) from the Giants (through the Eagles) in exchange for a fifth-round pick (No. 137: Jason Phillips), a seventh-round pick (No. 213: Paul Fanaika) and a third-rounder in 2010

So yes, it appears they traded the 137th pick to the Patriots to get Hobbs

According to Reid, they effectively traded two 5th round picks for Hobbs. I tried to sort through all that with all the draft info I could find, but still couldn't make sense of it. The long and short is, the Eagles have had a great off season.

I'll still miss Dawkins though :(
