Daniel Jeremiah, a former Eagles scout, returned to Lehigh this week as a reporter for NFL.com. He had a lot to say about what he saw, but I took particular interest in his evaluations of some of the Eagles young players.
Last year was a decidedly un-Andy Reid training camp. Known for tough camps with lots of hitting, Reid was forced to pull way back on the physicality. Not only because of the new CBA rules, but because the players really weren't in shape and many did
Jamar Chaney had a surprisingly good rookie season, but like pretty much everyone in the LB corps really struggled last year. But so far at Lehigh, he appears to be tightening his grip on a roster spot, evidenced by his recent move to the first team
As I'm sure many of you do, I was perusing some practice recaps last night and watching some highlights and three particular guys struck me. All three have been making strides this summer and all three could be stories of redemption.
After the first few days of camp, 6th round pick Marvin McNutt was our leader for the 2012 Na Brown award. However, a new contender has emerged.
The injury bug continues to bite the Eagles starting defensive line- so much so that there isn't any of it left. With Jason Babin, Trent Cole, and Mike Patterson already out with various injuries, Cullen Jenkins left practice Wednesday with a hamstr
There's been a lot of questions in the comments and on twitter asking about how a few individual players have looked so far in camp. After this morning's practice, Andy Reid assessed the individual performance of most of these guys.
Brandon Graham came into last years' camp hurt, out of shape and depressed. But this year, feeling 100% and coming off a great summer, Graham is surprising even himself with his play.
Andy Reid met the media after this morning's walk-through at Eagles camp and updated the injury news for a couple of notable Eagles.
RB Dion Lewis has impressed fans and coaches alike at training camp.
For those of you not familiar with the illustrious Na Brown award, it is an honor we give every year to an unheralded new Eagle that makes a big splash at Lehigh.
Reid said over the summer that this was going to be one of the hardest camps he has ever ran, and he finally got the chance to show it as he put a ton of live hitting and individual battles in the marathon practice.
Defensive players love when the pads go on camp. This is the time when defenders really get their chance to shine.
During the course of OTAs, we started the buzzmeter feature to track which Eagles were getting the most ink in the offseason. On offense, it was Jeremy Maclin and on defense... Brandon Graham.
The pads finally went on at Lehigh, as the Eagles had their first real practice of the season, giving young players their first real chance to get noticed by coaches.
We've got our first major injury of training camp. Multiple sources are reporting that WR Riley Cooper has fractured his collarbone and could miss several months.
With so many moving parts and a new coach last year, some confusion on the defense was to be expected early on. Today on Bleeding Green Nation Radio, 2nd year corner back Curtis Marsh detailed just how out of sync the defense was at times.
In an attempt to find long term solutions at the position, the Eagles selected safeties in the second round of both the 2010 and 2011 drafts. While the 2010 pick Nate Allen seems poised for a breakout season, the 2011 pick, Jaiquwan Jarrett, failed t
The one thing we heard repeated about a billion times when the Eagles traded for LB DeMeco Ryans in the spring was what a great leader he was. And really, the presence he was in the Houston locker room was undeniable. But can he have that impact here
As has been the theme of the Eagles 2012 offseason so far, the opening of the full camp at Lehigh was pretty much drama free.
Last year was certainly a whirlwind for Nnamdi Asomugha. Thanks to the lack of an offseason and the abbreviated camp, he was signed one day and in camp the next. Wasn't allowed to practice for a few days, had a new coach putting in a new system that
The full Eagles squad arrived on campus at Lehigh University last night. They'll take the field for the first time this afternoon in a closed session before the two a days begin on Friday. On their way to the dorms, the Eagles two biggest young stars
When DeSean Jackson broke into the NFL, he soon proved himself as one of the most dangerous punt returners in the leauge. Problem is, he also started to become more and more valuable on offense as a WR as well. As he became more and more relied upon
Eagles secondary coach Mike Zordich was an All-American safety at Penn State. His son is now the Nittany Lions' starting fullback. I'm sure you can guess what the first question he was asked was about....
As much as we look forward to hearing from Howard Mudd when the Eagles offensive coaches met the media, it's really the same with Jim Washburn, Mudd's counterpart on defense. Washburn had a lot to talk about with the big loss of Mike Patterson and th
