I hope the Eagles have the character to bounce back. Personally I feel that they do. There are several areas I would like to see addressed.
Now this may seem obvious, but in no particular these are the areas of concern.
D-Line. I still like Walker and Patterson looks like he can play though I am not sure if I am satisfied with this position. I think we could improve here, though I think I would be fine going into the season with the group as a whole. At DE, I like Cole and just think he's going to get better. Kearse is overpayed and I don't know if he is worthy of the "freak" label anymore. He concerns me. Again, DE can be improved.
LBs. I love Trotter but I think we need a stud OLB (weak or strong side). I think Dhani, Adams and Simoneau are average at best and I am looking forward to seeing more of our other young guys. This is a group that needs work.
Although our secondary struggled, I think we have among the best group of players here in the NFL. Their lack of play is largely attributable to our play up front.
Our O-line really pissed me off this season and I think we need work here across the board. We need more holes in the running game and our protection should improve as well. I hope that this is addressed early in the draft or in free agency. This is my #1 concern.
Running backs are fast and shifty. Wouldn't mind the addition of a bruiser. But if we go into next year with improvements to our O-line, I think we'll be fine. I think the combination of Moats and Westbrook (although they are similar) is dynamic and hopefully they both get their touches.
McNabb needs to regroup this team and let his play speak for itself. I think he'll do fine.
I am not sold on Brown as a #1 WR. I think he's a fine #2. Hopefully we'll get a larger, more reliable target. Lewis and Pinky are no more than role recievers. We're going to need to make moves here.
TE's - I am good with LJ. Would like to see a blocker picked up in the draft.
------------------
Well, thats my thoughts on the situaion. I want to see our OLine, LBs, and WRs overhauled. Also, I've always had faith in Reid. His true colors we will see next year. Any thoughts?
