Eagles' OTA practice notes: Sam Bradford sharp, defense a mess
On the second day of media access to Eagles OTAs, Sam Bradford was very sharp. He missed a wide open Zach Ertz on a sideline throw, but otherwise, Bradford was very accurate, delivering the ball with good placement and allowing receivers to get yards after the catch.May 23, 2016

The Eagles' 2014 draft class needs to finally produce
There's an NFL philosophy that says that players will make a big jump in their third year in the league. Whether or not you buy that, in the Eagles' case, the 2014 draft class better start producing, and soon.May 23, 2016

Why did Doug Pederson name Allen Barbre the starter at LG?
Heading into OTAs, it was assumed by most that four of the Eagles' five offensive line starting spots were obvious, with the LG spot thought to be up for grabs. Instead, Doug Pederson proclaimed that Barbre was "his guy" at LG.May 22, 2016

Carson Wentz receives rare effusive praise from anonymous scouts
Every year prior to the draft, Bob McGinn of the Wisconsin Journal Sentinel does a series on draft prospects and what anonymous scouts are saying about them. Without fail, it is always one of the best reads of the calendar year. Here's what those anonymous scouts said about Carson Wentz.May 21, 2016

What are the most embarrassing Eagles jerseys to own?
Nnamdi Asomugha is the most embarrassing Eagles jersey to own, according to Steven of Ruiz of USA Today, who named the worst jerseys to own for all 32 teams. Asomugha is a decent choice. He was the poster-child of the Dream Team season (well, sort of, if you don't count Vince Young), as he was an extremely high-paid free agent who did not live up to expectations on the field, and ate lunch in his car. What are some other Eagles jerseys you wish you could un-own?May 20, 2016

Over-Under for Eagles' wins among the lowest in the NFL
Are the 2016 Philadelphia Eagles going to be Super Bowl contenders? Gambling websites certainly don't think so. According to Canada-based bovada.lv betting odds, there are only three teams in the NFL with a lower over-under on total wins.May 19, 2016

Sam Bradford, Chase Daniel and Carson Wentz get equal reps on first day of practice
Prior to the draft, former Raiders and Buccaneers head coach -- and current ESPN TV analyst -- Jon Gruden noted that Eagles head coach is going to find it challenging getting each of his three quarterbacks a sufficient number of reps in practice. So how will the reps be split among three quarterbacks?May 18, 2016

Eagles' OTA practice notes: Wendell Smallwood shines
During the pre-draft process, I had convinced myself that the Eagles were going to target a running back who was skilled in catching the ball out of the backfield. In a west coast system, it stood to reason to me that Doug Pederson would want a player like Brian Westbrook or Jamaal Charles, both of whom have made a living in the NFL making plays in the passing game.Just In
