During the era of former head coach Andy Reid, the Philadelphia Eagles had issues, but one thing was certain. Reid knew how important it was to win in the trenches. He consistently took an offensive lineman or a defensive lineman with his first round selection.
More often than not Reid butchered it. Remember defensive linemen Trevor Laws and Jerome McDougle and offensive lineman Danny Watkins? Still, Reid had a formula, and what’s important was how serious he was about that aspect of the game.
