The Eagles will be holding their rookie minicamp this weekend down at the NovaCare Complex and for all teams, this is their first opportunity to get a closer look at their rookies. For Philadelphia, the weekend will have much more significance than breaking the new guys in.
Howie Roseman orchestrated a successful NFL Draft where he focused on taking the best talent available with an emphasis on Uber-athletic prospects. With that said, he also left a lot of holes for those players to grow into over the long-term. The salary-cap stricken Eagles were unable to make a real splash in free agency, lending opportunities to younger players across the roster and allowing their new-look coaching staff to do its job and develop that talent over an extended period.
