Three Eagles underdogs who could emerge as CB2 candidates
The Eagles navigated the NFL Draft very impressively, but did so without filling a key need on their roster. The team was starving for cornerback help, but not in the nickel where they decided to re-enforce. That leaves the Eagles without any viable options to play opposite Darius Slay...or does it?
Michael Jacquet
At 6’2, 201 lbs, Michael Jacquet is a former receiver with a wingspan of 82 1/8 inches – 4 longer than any other DB recorded at last year’s combine, along with 33.5 inch arms. Not only is he rangy, but he’s fast. Jacquet ran a 4.42 40-yard dash at his pro day and that speed constantly showed up on tape last year.
