Eagles’ 2015 Success May Rest On the Guards

PHILADELPHIA, PA (CBS) — There is a little upheaval going on here and it’s only June. The Eagles have some holes that need to be solidified before the season and a glaring issue is up front on the offensive line, where Matt Tobin appears to be Todd Herremans’ replacement at right guard and Allen Barbre has been penciled in to replace the disgruntled Evan Mathis, the Eagles’ Pro Bowler who is holding out of OTAs, at left guard.

“I think how things have played out, that’s where they like me, and sometimes it’s a guessing game for us too where (we’re aligned),” said Barbre, who was lost for 2014 with a high right ankle sprain in last season’s opener against Jacksonville.
