1. Who starts at guard?
Over the past few seasons, the Eagles coaching staff hasn’t had to worry much about who the team’s starting guards would be. When healthy, Evan Mathis and Todd Herremans combined with center Jason Kelce to form one of the stronger interior offensive lines in the league. Of course, both starting guards were released during this past offseason, and now the biggest question facing the position group regards which players will be able to step up and claim the starting jobs.
One of the more prevailing thoughts about why the Eagles felt comfortable moving on from Mathis and Herremans is that the coaching staff really liked Allen Barbre, a sturdy, versatile offensive lineman who has performed very well in fill-in spots for the Eagles since his arrival in 2013.
