Eagles 2016 training camp preview: Cornerbacks

by Jimmy Kempski

If there's one positional group where the Eagles' defense definitively doesn't have any "standout" players, that would be at cornerback. Still, while there are no notable stud players on the corners, the Eagles do have quite a bit of depth, and there should be a heated competition at corner throughout the summer.

Eagles 2016 training camp preview: Defensive line

by Jimmy Kempski

The Philadelphia Eagles' defense will have a totally different look to it in 2016, when the Birds transition from a two-gapping 3-4 defense to a attack-style 4-3. That change will have the greatest effect on the Eagles' defensive linemen.

The Eagles are no longer 'bigger people'

by Jimmy Kempski

Way back at the 2013 NFL Owner's Meetings, before he ever coached a pro game, Chip Kelly sat with reporters for an hour and talked about his philosophies. One of the gold mine quotes to come out of that session was "Bigger people beat up little people."

by Jimmy Kempski

Barring injury, you can mark down four of the five Eagles starting offensive line spots in ink. The only starting spot seemingly up for grabs is at LG. Let's take a look at the starters individually, and then we'll try to sort out the Eagles' OL depth.

Eagles 2016 training camp preview: Tight ends

by Jimmy Kempski

Ah, finally we come to a position of strength on the Eagles offense. Unlike at quarterback, running back, and wide receiver, there is true reason for optimism in 2016 at the tight end position, where the Eagles have talented starters as well as quality depth.

Breaking down the top 20 Eagles in 2016

by Jimmy Kempski

Late last week, PhillyVoice's own Matt Mullin and Rich Hofmann put together a list of Philadelphia's top 25 athletes. I had a small role in the piece, as I put together a list of the top 20 Eagles for Matt and Rich to consider. As long as I made a list, I may as well publish it. So here you go.

Eagles 2016 training camp preview: Quarterbacks

by Jimmy Kempski

The Eagles used a lot of resources to move up in the 2016 NFL Draft to select Carson Wentz, and there's little question that he will be the face of the franchise... eventually. However, in 2016, as Doug Pederson noted, there's a good chance Wentz will start the season watching games from the sidelines in street clothes, as he will likely be inactive on game day at the start of the season. As the season goes on, who knows?

Eagles 2016 training camp preview: Wide receivers

by Jimmy Kempski

The Eagles' crop of wide receivers heading into camp in 2016, much like in 2015, is very young. Unfortunately, the Birds don't have any receivers with a 1000-yard season to their credit.
