| The Eagles pass defense wasn't great last season, but they made a great addition the secondary, signing Asante Samuel during the offseason. Philly now has three top corners on the roster ? Samuel, Lito Sheppard and Sheldon Brown. Their pass defense should be very tough with these three guys patrolling the secondary. And the Eagles rush defense already was pretty good. Brodrick Bunkley and Mike Patterson are solid run-stuffing tackles. And Trent Cole does a great job of getting after the quarterback off the end. The special teams unit is solid. Rookie DeSean Jackson is expected to take over most of the return duties. Jackson has big-play ability with his great speed and moves. And if Jackson doesn't pan out, Correll Buckhalter has a pretty good history in the return game. | |
| The Eagles are just outside of the elite defenses, but a solid every-week fantasy starter. They have sack potential with Cole and the secondary is stacked, giving you great upside for turnovers and touchdowns. And the special teams unit could be better with Jackson on board. |
