2008 Philadelphia Eagles NFL Preview



2008 Philadelphia Eagles NFL Preview

August 3rd, 2008
The Eagles have been active in putting themselves in a position to instantly be competitive again. They were plagued by injuries last year, and should be a much better team than their record indicated. Watch the trade demands of CB Lito Sheppard. If he stays with the team and plays hard, the Eagles will be virtually impossible to pass against.

If McNabb can stay healthy, this offense can move. WR DeSean Jackson has a good chance of contributing right away as a number three, and even more important, can help reduce Brian Westbrook’s returns (and chance of being injured). Booker is a great fit for the wide open Eagles offense, and his hands and speed will give opposing defensive coordinators fits. There’s a lot of depth from the draft. If this team stays healthy, look for 10-6, tied for 2nd. If not, they still have a shot to go 8-8.
