Eagles must evolve their defense to fit Georgia cornerstones

To run a 4-3? Or a 3-4? That is one of the main questions surrounding the Philadelphia Eagles defense as rookie minicamp kicks off. It’s the first time Eagle fans will be able to see first-round stalwart, Jordan Davis, and third-round steal, Nakobe Dean in Eagle uniforms.

With still over a couple of months away from any legitimate football being played, the question of Davis’ playtime in this mystery scheme will be widely debated. In reality, the answer is quite simple.

Dean and Davis both made the case that they played in multiple different defensive schemes in Georgia, but it’s clear the team needs to fit their defensive alignment to their new defensive tackle.
