Philadelphia Eagles post-OTA 53-man roster projections
Much is expected of the Philadelphia Eagles’ new-look defense in 2022.
Since March, the Philadephia Eagles have added some new faces to their nest on the defensive side of the ball: Haason Reddick, Kyzir White, Jordan Davis, Nakobe Dean, Kyron Johnson, Josh Blackwell, Reed Blankenship, Noah Elliss, Ali Fayad, Mario Goodrich, Josh Jobe, Jimmy Moreland, and James Bradberry. Jonathan Gannon has a ton of weapons to deploy.
This might be the best collection of undrafted free agents that we’ve seen on both sides of the ball, but the defensive depth chart may be approaching gridlock.

Quick notes worth committing to memory: In addition to the new guys, the Eagles have elected to hold onto some familiar faces: Fletcher Cox, Derek Barnett, and Anthony Harris. 13 cornerbacks are expected at camp, and that could be a fun competition to watch.
