Eagles Offseason Preview
http://tripleanfl.blogspot.com/2012/01/eagles-offseason-preview.html
This is a preview of the Eagles offseason.
QB- They gave Mike Vick the franchise QB money in the offseason so he is their franchise QB.
RB- Lesean McCoy exploded last year and made a case that he could be the best RB in the NFL. Ronnie Brown is a free agent but that is no big loss. They will probably draft a running back late in the draft for depth.
WR- This position had its ups and downs. Desean Jackson and Steve Smith are free agents and neither are expected to be back. Steve Smith was clearly not the same player and fell down to 5th on the depth chart when he got hurt. Desean Jackson was a distraction for most of the year and like every NFL insider will tell you don't expect Desean back. Expect them to draft a speed receiver in the mid rounds.
TE- After having a disappointing year Brent Celek had a bounce back year. All they need is depth maybe a more athletic TE.
OL- This unit drastically improved as the year went on. Evan Mathis had a good year last year and don't expect the Eagles to over pay for him. The Eagles will either in the mid to early rounds for a guard or add a RT and move Todd Herremans back to his natural guard position.
DL- This is one of the most talented d-line's in the NFL. As the year went on they got more and more pressure on the passer. Antonio Dixon and Trevor Laws are free agents expect Dixon back as he is more of a run stopper.
LB- This unit struggled for most of the year. Look for them either early in the draft or in free agency to add an impact linebacker.
DB- Even though this was one of the most talented unit in the NFL it struggled thought the year. Look for everyone to get better with experience. However the team could move Assante Samuel to get picks or improve at other positions. In the mid rounds expect them to take a safety.

I understand he has problems but either you trust your veterans to have a talk with Jackson or you just don't have good leadership in that locker room to begin with. It would be a shame to let him go because I know he'd make them regret it for years to come

Why do you think there is no chance Jackson will be back? He could be back, I dont think he will be but where are all these insiders who think its a definite?

I take what nfl insiders say a lot into account and they said they haven't offered him a contract.

The Eagles never offer a contract until after the season ends and right before the free agency peroid begins. Everybody was just hoping they'd be proactive for once and actually sign someone before their contract ends.

I wouldn't want to bring Jackson back,they have plenty of other weapons that can make plays that use their head.

Re: Eagles Offseason Preview
Ditch Jackson, there are TONS of good WR's in this years draft class you can take.
Re: Eagles Offseason Preview
I would argue that they are as effective as they are because Jackson commands safety help deep. Im not saying they arent very good players but I do think Jackson is helping them tremendouslyccdog23 wrote:I wouldn't want to bring Jackson back,they have plenty of other weapons that can make plays that use their head.
