Here are a few guesses on the Eagles’ defensive depth chart. This figures to change.

Something tells us, with the selection of a stud nose tackle in the making, and the addition of all of these linebackers, that the transition from the 4-3 defensive scheme to a 3-4 alignment is in the Eagles’ future. Until we see that officially, here’s a guess on the depth chart with Philadelphia’s traditional 4-3 in mind.
