Eagles training camp notes, Day 3: Some quarterback observations

Day 3 of Philadelphia Eagles training camp is in the books, and it was a quick practice, as the lads were only on the field for about an hour and 10 minutes. Still, there were observations to be made, so let's get right to it.

Eagles training camp notes, Day 2: Jordan Mailata takes early LT lead over Andre Dillard

It was a cool, overcast day at the NovaCare Complex on Wednesday for Philadelphia Eagles training camp Day No. 2. The lads were still in shells and shorts, but we have our first update on the best battle in camp, at left tackle.

Keeping Zach Ertz on the Eagles' roster in 2021 does not make much sense

Zach Ertz is the best tight end in Philadelphia Eagles franchise history, a Super Bowl hero, and fan favorite. As such, he will forever be a legendary figure in Philly. Emotional and sentimental attachments aside, however, there's no good reason that Ertz should remain on the Eagles' roster in 2021.

Eagles training camp notes, Day 1: Actual football is back!

Philadelphia Eagles 2021 training camp is underway, and Nick Sirianni actually held a spirited practice to kick things off, even if it was kinda short. Under Doug Pederson in 2020, the team started with an uneventful 10-10-10 practice. Let's get right to the notes.

Should the Eagles have interest in Dolphins CB Xavien Howard?

Miami Dolphins cornerback Xavien Howard is awesome, but, spoiler, no, the Philadelphia Eagles should not have interest in him.

We haven't had an Eagles chat in a while, but we'll be getting back to those soon. For now, I solicited questions from my Twitter followers for a mailbag post, and as always, they came through.

30 things I'll be watching at 2021 Eagles training camp

Philadelphia Eagles training camp is almost here, as players will report to the NovaCare Complex on Tuesday, and the first practice of 2021 camp will be on Wednesday. For my own benefit, I put together a list of things to watch for over the next month or so, and since I went to the trouble of listing them for myself as a guide, I may as well just publish them here as well.

Eagles agree to terms with CB Steven Nelson

Steven Nelson is a good starting NFL corner, though not much of a playmaker, as he only has 7 INTs and 1 FF in 6 seasons. Still, he can step in immediately and be a major upgrade on the Eagles' roster at CB2 opposite Darius Slay.

Eagles pre-training camp 53-man roster projection

With Philadelphia Eagles players scheduled to report to training camp on Tuesday, perhaps it makes some sense to project the final 53-man roster for the purpose of showing which players have work to do, and which ones will hope to hold onto their spots? Yes? No? Whatever, let's just do this.
