Five Eagles breakout candidates in 2023 - PhillyVoice
1) LB Nakobe Dean. When the Eagles’ selected Dean in the third round of the 2022 NFL Draft, it was widely hailed as a steal. Many (self included) thought that Dean had a chance to start as a rookie in the Eagles’ defense. It didn’t happen that way, as he had a quiet training camp, while T.J. Edwards and Kyzir White made plays regularly in practice. Dean is challenged by his lack of ideal size, and he isn’t an elite athlete by NFL standards. He’ll have to rely on his instincts and intelligence at the NFL level.
