Forget WRs, Defense Wins Championships
Although the Eagles haven’t been as flashy in Free Agency as many would have liked, they have added two potential starters at positions of need. Stacy Andrews will contribute if healthy somewhere along the yet-to-be-determined new-look offensive line. Sean Jones will be hitting on special teams and will have a chance to compete for a starting Safety spot. Even with these solid moves, it sure seems like a lot of work remains to be done.
With over $40 million in open cap space and 12 total draft picks in April (including two 1st rounders and metric ton of 5th round picks), the Eagles have more flexibility to improve their roster than any team in the NFL. Maybe that’s why we are all so anxious to be a part of the action.
This team still has a lot of room for improvement, and the glare from the window of opportunity closing is blinding. I for one think the time to take the Eagles to the next level is now, and some of the stereotypical Eagles front office conservatism should be thrown to the wind.
