Guard Allen Barbre will have to fight for starting job

PHOENIX - The Eagles still have all five starting offensive linemen on their roster from last season, but that doesn't mean they will be the starters in 2017.

Coach Doug Pederson said Wednesday that he hopes all five start, but he also mentioned Isaac Seumalo as "a guy that we want to get into the mix" when asked about left guard. That means veteran Allen Barbre will have competition. Pederson said Stefen Wisniewski and Chance Warmack will be in contention for a starting job as well.

"It just creates that competition that we're always looking for, and trying to find the best five going into the season," Pederson said.
