iladelphxx Posted May 18, 2022 Share Posted May 18, 2022 Outside of Safety, is there a position group on this team that doesn't have Top 5 in the NFL level depth? QB RB WR OL TE DL LB CB Each one of these positions has backup players who could be a starter on some teams in the league right now. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milkman420 Posted May 25, 2022 Share Posted May 25, 2022 Defensive end. Lot of injury risks I know reddick is an edge but he’s not a de. Hes a Sam but Barnett blows lol and I can’t stand he’s dumb arse penalties 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milkman420 Posted May 25, 2022 Share Posted May 25, 2022 I know you listed it as dline but dt is stacked de we have a graham that we don’t know what he is anymore and sweat who needs to become a 10+ sack guy. I’d also say lb. people love kyzir white but he could easily become the newest in a long line of free agent failures at that position along with dean who could just as easily fail like every eagles lb drafted in last 20 years lol. They have potential to be good but nowhere near top 5 based on potential Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vileborg Posted May 25, 2022 Share Posted May 25, 2022 Who behind the starters would you say would start on other teams for CB, LB, TE, RB and QB. CB - Is Zech a starter? LB - I'm not sure who would start on other teams outside our three starters in Dean, White and Edwards TE - Is Stoll a starter? JJAW might have a job as a blocking TE but not a starter job, imo. RB - I like Bosco and Gainwell but I think they'd be RB2 on another team QB - Minshew is a backup here because he couldn't start anywhere else. I've advocated his arm is better than Hurts and gives us a better chance at success so I could see if you said he could start here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Traveler Vic Posted May 25, 2022 Share Posted May 25, 2022 The answer is Yes... This post is lacking Depth. Since we are switching more to 3-4, the defense has to prove itself first....Just because there are a lot of new faces, does not mean that we have top people that other teams are scared off. Not Yet anyway. We are a lot closer to repeating a playoff win, then winning a SB..And it is way too early to judge the level and the progress of the team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LacesOut Posted May 25, 2022 Share Posted May 25, 2022 TE, CB, Safety lack depth. And across the entire D Line, meh, it's ok. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoconoDon Posted May 25, 2022 Share Posted May 25, 2022 This Eagles team is less complete than the 2017 team was. It is expected though since rebuild is still ongoing. If they have a great off season next year and QB is straightened out, that's when we should raise expectations. This year has a lot of "prove it" built into the team. Let's hope they do. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QB - the starter should be a back up RB - Gainwell and Scott are not starters. WR - I would take the Rams, Bengals, Bucs, Vikings, Seahawks, Chargers, Raiders over the Eagles TE - Literally nothing behind Goedert CB - The group is so thin they had to sign a guy to a 1 year deal last week as they do not trust anyone else in the group to start Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has good speed and reliable hands. Go watch his tape his last season. Jackson is extremely talented but has the injuries slowed both his development and athletic skills? TBD. Our 6th round TE Grant has a Trey Burton size and skill set. Would have went a lot higher if he didn’t already retire and has concussion issues. 3rd round talent easy. We have players here we just haven’t seen a lot from the young guys other than Stoll. Scott and Gainwell were better and more complete backs than Sanders was last season. He didn’t have that incredible home run speed where he could take it to the house at any time. He has never been a great pass protection guy and his hands have been suspended or just no show. But don’t forget they were the guys who lead us to the playoffs and helped make the #1 rushing offense in the NFL. Jordan Howard is also a phone call away. He is just such a natural fit in the room and as a Philly type player. Minshew is better than Mariota, Mills, Lock, Jones, Trubisky/Pickett, Fields, Darnold, Zach Wilson, and Geoff and possibly Wentz that’s a lot of teams hurting for talent so yeah be happy with our backup QB and Strong was considered a Day 2 talent and we got him by injuries in the past. He can develop and continue to heal as the third string. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many targets did he have ? 6 He was asked to block when 12 and 13 was our sub package. He has really good hands if you look at his college tape when he was targeted. Smooth routes soft hands and tough to bring down. He can’t call his own number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone outside the starters, backs and Reagor combined for 19 total receptions for the year out of total 307. - Ward(7), Stoll(4), Jackson(3), JJAW(2), Rodgers(2) and Lane(1) Combined 12 from Hurts in 15 games. - Ward(6),Stoll(3),Jackson(0),JJAW(2),Rodgers(0) and Lane(1) Combined 7 in just over 2 games. - Jackson(3),Rodgers(2),Ward(1),Stoll(1) (Most of these happened in the final Dallas game where the starters didn't play) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yeah behind Goedert there isn't a lot there! And Goedert does tend to miss time. Nobody is really talking about him since he wasn't used much last year, but Rodgers is still on the roster and he's a pretty solid TE2 if you need him to be. He's an efficient and reliable receiver and a very good blocker. It looks like T. Jackson fans might have to wait until next year to see if this project pans out. He has to recover from the knee injury and likely will get stashed on IR at some point after starting on the PUP list. Stoll will get a long look in TC and preseason, but he just seems like a run of the mill TE3. Calcaterra is a guy to watch. There's a good chance he's one of the guys we keep on the regular roster. Sirianni wants his WRs to block, so Calcaterra needs to show he can block if he wants to be a TE on this team. JJAW will probably end up on the PS. Togiai seems like the odd man out in virtually every scenario. But our "depth" at TE isn't really anything to brag about at this point. In 2017 we had Ertz, Celek and Burton. After that, we had Ertz, Goedert and Rodgers until the trade deadline last year. This is probably the worst "depth" we've had at TE in years, but we aren't in bad shape either. There is some potential in the unknowns. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On TE, in Today's NFL you can put any tall guy with decent hands who's too slow to play outside in as a pass catching TE, Rodgers, Stoll, Jackson or Calcaterra should be more than enough.

Yeah but the argument made was that we have a better WR rotation than the Bengals, and we don't, The Bengals probably have the best 1,2,3 of receivers in the league. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll add if you replace JJAW and Reagor with the guys we have now and we will see the Eagles throw the ball a lot more than they did last season. What remains to be seen is if the quarterback can keep up. If he can’t then they should replace him and not just wait until the off-season to do it. They should’ve pulled the trigger on Foles and traded Minshew. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean they've added AJ Brown and they have Smith, Watkins and Goedert to feed plus decent depth with Pascal and then the RBs getting involved in the pass game. They can't adapt the offense this year to run heavy surely? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
