Who has the upper hand in Eagles CB2 battle going into Training Camp?

The team traded for Darius Slay and signed veteran slot cornerback Nickell Robey-Coleman, who will undoubtedly play the slot role. This leaves an open playing field at the CB2 spot, but who can step up and take the throne?

Sidney Jones and Avonte Maddox both started their NFL careers differently. Jones saw his value drop after being declared as a top 10 pick, due to a blown-out Achilles at his pro-day that resulted in him falling into the lap of Howie Roseman in the second round. Avonte Maddox was the diamond in the rough that the Eagles found in the 4th round.
