The Eagles' worst position on paper needs a healthy Nakobe Dean.
PHILADELPHIA - Eagles GM Howie Roseman has broken out the hope-is-not-a-strategy mantra on more than one occasion.The Eagles are so forgettable at the stacked LB position that defensive coordinator Vic Fangio had to dig in his back pocket this spring for a copy of the roster when asked about the spot.
Dean was cleared to get back in the mix by the second half of OTAs and minicamp and occasionally got some first-team reps but mainly manned the second team with another free-agent pickup, veteran Oren Burks. Perhaps the best thing you can say about the group is that the first rung of the depth chart isn’t all that different than the third.
