Eagles' Allen Barbre: In guard they trust

WHILE THE Eagles' front office was busy last week not drafting an offensive lineman, Allen Barbre was home in rural Missouri tending to chores.

Barbre was fixing up a cabin he'd like to sell. Taking care of his 10 beef cattle. "It's country [there]. Laid-back . . . I like to be a little secluded," Barbre said yesterday, after OTA work at NovaCare.

While Barbre worked, he was not paying any attention, he said, to the fact that the Eagles, in the biggest upset of their 2015 draft, did not add anyone who might threaten Barbre's position as Todd Herremans' replacement at right guard.
