Third in a series focusing on positions of need for the Eagles in the run-up to the draft (Thursday-Saturday):
CORNERBACK
What they have: The Eagles got rid of both 2014 starters, Bradley Fletcher and Cary Williams. They've added a couple of ex-Seahawks, Byron Maxwell at six years for $63 million, and Walter Thurmond, at the much more modest $3.25 million, along with former Buc and Redskin E.J. Biggers. They also have returnees Brandon Boykin, Jaylen Watkins (possibly tabbed as a safety) and Nolan Carroll.
What they need: A tall, long-armed, long-term bookend to Maxwell.
