With the departure of Brian Dawkins to free agency, the starting safety opposite Quintin Mikell is one of the few, and maybe only, positions up for grabs when training camp begins in July.

I think LDE is also up for grabs.

sure is...
I don’t want any of them to be locked though.
I think everyone should be pushed to work to be the best and earn thier spot.
Who do you got winning out of Jordan/Gaither battle?
I want Abiamiri to smash it this year. T. Cole will be so much better with an opposiong threat since he gets double teamed so much.

I think Jordan will win out the battle but i dont see Gaither going down easy. As far as Abiamiri i think he will win a starting spot. I think he would have got it last year had it not been for his wrist injury in camp. I think he could end up being another dominant force on the d-line.

The LDE battle is less important because they’re all going to see plenty of time on the field anyway with the D-Line rotation. As for the LB spots, I think we can throw Gocong into that mix too. He’s much more of a longshot not to be starting, but it certainly wouldn’t surprise me. That said, I think we satrt the season with Jordan/Bradley/Gocong, with Gaither being able to fill in at any of the 3 positions if need be.

Why would they put Guiliani on that presentation?
Dude has been caught in multiple scandals, why would anyone want to listen to him? lol
E-A-G-L-E-S EAGLES!!!

i hope and think Abiamiri will build off his strong showing in last years playoffs and be starting by week 3, juqua can only hold him off for so long

I think
It’s either flying green bird poop.
Or confetti left over from this years future super bowl win.

I hope
That the rookies find the playbook easy to master. I hope they can make an immediate impact.

Stewart Bradley
Said he was still learning the playbook after 3 years.
Master is a strong word.
I just hope they are intelligent enough to continually and practically understand plays and be of use to the team. I want them to get better and make an impact soon, but we all know that with not much time to prepare, like Desean last year, they will run a couple routes wrong. Thats why Maclin being able to sit out and watch some time will be super important.

I just hope that the rookies learn at least one thing from Desean Jackson before the season starts, don’t celebrate till your in the end zone
"If they end up 2-14 and both of those wins came against Dallas, that's a pretty good year."
