Justin Gilbert could redeem himself with Philadelphia Eagles

In 2016, some of the worst production for the Philadelphia Eagles came at the cornerback position. In many situations, players are drafted into the NFL, placed in a bad situation and are never able to recover. Cornerback Justin Gilbert fits that mold.

The former eight-overall selection was cut by the Pittsburgh Steelers recently after just one season with the team. His first two seasons were spent as a member of the Cleveland Browns. History appears to be repeating itself. Running back Dion Lewis is a former member of both the Eagles and Browns.
