Eagles' secondary still a primary concern

THEY ARE easy targets: Nate Allen, Cary Williams and poor Bradley Fletcher.

They served as chief scapegoats for the Eagles' missed 2014 postseason. They served as evidence for the demotion of general manager Howie Roseman.

Allen was a second-round pick during the Brian Dawkins Hangover; Williams and Fletcher, two modestly priced, free-agent solutions who had never been the featured corners on their previous teams. capegoating them was justified, and the evaluation of their talents was poor. They probably played to their abilities; competent players who need support, all of whom have plenty of NFL life left.

They might succeed with their new teams.
