Cornerback

  1. Nolan Carroll
  2. Eric Rowe
  3. Leodis McKelvin
  4. JaCorey Shepherd
  5. Ron Brooks
  6. Jalen Mills

Byron Maxwell is gone and Nolan Carroll will now be the Eagles’ No. 1 corner. Carroll was solid for the Eagles last season until a broken ankle ended his season. Whether or not he’s lost a step remains to be seen, but at full health, Carroll is more than capable of being a serviceable player. Eric Rowe had an up and down rookie season, but occasionally showed flashes of brilliance. Rowe will compete for the starting job opposite Carroll against first-year Eagle Leodis McKelvin with JaCorey Shepherd, Ron Brooks and rookie Jalen Mills looking to make some noise as well.
