Brandon Graham let's it slip that they are moving more heavily towards a 3-4, which I expected in seeing the personnel additions. Also expect a decent amount of 5-2:

In the 3-4...

                       Hargrave/Cox---Davis/Ellis---Graham/Williams

White/Taylor                   Dean                   Edwards                        Reddick/Johnson

 

and the 5-2...

Sweat/Barnett---Hargrave/Cox---Davis/Ellis---Graham/Williams---Reddick/Johnson

                                    Dean/Edwards     White/Taylor

 

This SHOULD help older players like Cox and Graham with an even healthier rotation than year's past.

Not having done any kind of deep dive into their formations last year, I imagine they used a 5-2 formation solely against two tight ends or when the opposing offense used a fullback, and did it to stop the run.

I think the big change this year is that we can use a 5-man front when a team is in 11 personnel because we are now much faster at linebacker, plus we have a legit nose tackle.

    I'm sorry I brough such a depressing topic into the blog.  A little back story without too much detail. I met my friend 12 years ago during an AF commissioning program. He was on top of the world

Gotta believe it’s gonna be much more of a 5-2/5-1 front than a 3-4. They have a ton of resources and great players in DL that they aren’t going to continually sit to play 4 LBs

If Davis doesn't work out in the NFL maybe he could at least replace Dom as Eagles head of security.

Well that's a wrap

Anything short of 100% completion percentage will have people here funding a way to **** about him.  He could even have 100% completion percentage and people would still be posting screenshot of a YouTube video showing he could have passed to someone else on a given play. 

Stupid strawman

He's literally one of the worst QB's in the entire NFL at selecting a target and getting the football to that target...and you are taking the fact that people complain about that and saying they would complain about perfection.

Hurts is going to recruit him. It’ll be fine.

Where do all these educated guess twitter accounts materialize from?

Hurts apparently said he hasn't tweaked anything with his throwing motion
