We’d be off-base if we didn’t believe James Bradberry’s addition wouldn’t create a ripple effect on the Eagles roster.
Hopefully, a huge lesson has been learned. One can never get too high or too low as you watch the Philadelphia Eagles navigate through an NFL offseason. We’ve experienced quite a few emotional roller-coasters.
During the free-agency frenzy, after the buzz surrounding Haason Reddick’s addition calmed, we asked why this organization and its vice president/general manager, Howie Roseman, weren’t being aggressive enough. That changed during the NFL Draft. Every day felt like a party.
Three weeks after the draft began, here we are again. Philadelphia announced the signing of James Bradberry, and just like that, it’s gotten really hard to find any public criticism of Howie Roseman. He’s had quite the offseason, but as you know, with Bradberry being added to the Eagles’ nest, dominoes will fall.
Might Zech McPhearson be in that number? It’s doubtful. Just a month ago, we were talking about him starting opposite of Darius Slay, so he seems to be safe. That isn’t the case for some of Philly’s other young DBs though.
We know how these things work. Bradberry’s addition sent shockwaves through the NFL (and the Eagles’ depth chart). Here are three players who are suddenly sitting on much warmer seats.
