Back in the early-mid 2000’s the Philadelphia Eagles had one of the most feared secondaries in the NFL. With the trio of Lito Sheppard, Sheldon Brown, and Brian Dawkins, the Eagles secondary was the “Legion of Boom” back then.
Today, that is not the case. Since the departures of Sheppard and Dawkins the Eagles have been searching for that next man that can be feared in the secondary. With failed experiments in Asante Samuel, Nnamdi Asomugha, and Cary Williams, to say the least, the Birds have been with little luck.
