The Eagles are finally in training camp so now is a perfect time to do a 53 man roster projection:
Quarterback: 3
QB1 Carson Wentz
Reserves:
QB Nate Sudfeld
QB Jalen Hurts
Not much to say here as these three players are locked into roster spots. The only question is who will be the backup quarterback.
Running back: 4
RB1 Miles Sanders
RB2 Boston Scott
Reserves
RB Corey Clement
RB Michael Warren
It is still possible the Eagles add a veteran or snag somebody after roster cuts, but for now I have them keeping Michael Warren due to his size.
Wide Receiver: 7
WR1 DeSean Jackson
WR2 Alshon Jeffery
WR3 Jalen Reagor
Reserves
WR Greg Ward
WR JJ Arcega-Whiteside
WR John Hightower
WR Quez Watkins
With recent news that Alshon Jeffery may be ready to play sometime in September it seems unlikely he will be placed on PUP which means that the Eagles could very well carry seven wide receivers. This may seem excessive, but the Eagles do not want to be in the same situation they were in last year and if they cut one of Hightower or Watkins, another team could claim them off waivers.
Tight End: 2
TE1 Zach Ertz
TE2 Dallas Goedert
It may seem like a bad idea to only have two tight ends, but I have them only carrying two as I believe the value of having Watkins or Hightower make the team outweighs the contributions of Josh Perkins or any of the other tightends on the roster.
Offensive Line: 9
LT Andre Dillard
LG Issac Seumalo
C Jason Kelce
RG Jason Peters
RT Lane Johnson
reserves:
G/TJack Driscoll
G Matt Pryor
C Nate Herbig
T Jordan Mailata
I believe they will stash 6th round pick OG Prince Tega Wanagho on IR with a phantom injury of some kind. This is a make or break off-season for OT Jordan Mailata and he could easily not make the team.
Defensive Line: 10
DE Brandon Graham
DT Fletcher Cox
DT Jordan Hargrave
DE Derek Barnett
Reserves:
DE Josh Sweat
DE Vinny Curry
DE Genard Avery
DE Shareef Miller
DT Malik Jackson
DT Hassan Ridgeway
It is very possible that 2019 4th round pick Shareef Miller does not make the team, but I dont belive they will give up on him so soon.
Linebackers: 5
MLB TJ Edwards
OLB Nate Gerry
OLB Duke Riley
Reserves:
OLB Davion Taylor
LB Shaun Bradley
Linebacker is the weakest position on the team and this is a position that could definitely have changes over the next month after final roster cuts.
Cornerback: 6
CB1 Darius Slay
CB2 Avonte Maddox
CB3 Nickell Robey-Coleman
Reserves
CB Sidney Jones
CB Cre'von Leblanc
CB Rasul Douglas
The Eagles could end up trading CB Rasul Douglas sometime before the season, but absent a trade or injury, I dont see this group changing very much
Safety: 4
FS Jalen Mills
SS Rodney McLeod
Reserves:
S K'von Wallace
S Will Parks
The safety spots shouldn't experience any changes after training camp.
Special Teams: 3
K Jake Elliott
P Cameron Johnston
LS Rick Lavoto
These roster spots are locked in.
Practice Squad: 12
QB Kyle Lauletta
RB Adrian Killins
WR Robert Davis
TE Noah Togiai
OG Sue Opeta
C Luke Jeriga
DE Joe Ostman
DT Anthony Rush
LB Casey Toohill
LB Alex Singleton
S Grayland Arnold
