Five Philadelphia Eagles are really going to surprise you in 2020.

It’s something that you can count on if you’re a Philadelphia Eagles fan or if you’re a fan of any of the other 31 NFL teams. There will always be overrated guys and the guys who don’t get their fair share of the limelight. This story is a tale about the players on this “Birds” team who fall into the latter category.

This is a story about those guys who work their arses off and get overshadowed by the teammates that make the Pro Bowl every year, one, because those guys are extremely talented but also because we live in a world where people and sports fans love stars.

Place the Philadelphia Eagles’ roster on any surface, throw a dart at it, and you’re liable to land on one of them. It doesn’t matter which position grouping that we’re discussing. You can find an elite-level talent at every single spot of the football field playing on this Eagles team, with the exception of, maybe, safety, linebacker, and defensive end (and they’re still very good there). This Eagles roster is loaded, but if the 2020 campaign will be a success story, it may come down to the efforts of the unknowns.

Here are five of them. No, better yet, here are the top five guys we rarely mention but should be talking about more. Drumroll, please.
