Do the Eagles really still need help at defensive end?

Since the offseason began, you or someone you know have probably seen articles about the need for another defensive end for the Eagles.

Whether it was Jadeveon Clowney, Yannick Ngakoue, or Everson Griffen, the sentiment was the same: get more depth.

But do the Eagles really need more depth? Let’s take a look at the position.

The starters

Brandon Graham and Derek Barnett are the starters, making it the second year in a row for this pairing. Barnett did start all games he played in 2018, but that was only six.

While Graham may never be the sack artist people thought they were getting with the 13th overall pick in 2013, he has consistently been one of the better pass rushers in the league.
