Summary

ITB hosts Adam Caplan and Geoff Mosher continue a multi-part depth chart podcast series, going inside each position and its hierarchy.

In this episode, they go inside the safety depth chart, which at the moment, has no clear starter opposite Andrew Mukuba. Adam and Geoff detail what the Eagles can do to fill the starting hole and go through the in-house candidates and what they bring.

Inside the Birds is back.

0:13.9

It's back.

It's Jeff Mosher and Adam Kaplan.

0:17.1

And we've reached the end of our depth chart intel series.

0:22.1

We have previewed the Eagles at every single position that they have on the depth chart,

0:27.8

and we finish it off with this last position of safety.

0:31.5

And the tone of this podcast, Adam, is we were joking a little bit before we started recording.

0:36.2

It's going to be a lot different than when we were talking about

0:38.2

corner and DT and offball linebacker and all the talent and obvious starters at each position.

0:44.7

The depth chart is wide open as we're sitting here recording the show

because they still have to get themselves more bodies at that position

and they have no real definable exact starter next to

1:21.0

Like they got problems.

1:22.2

So right now, it's either going to be, depending on what they do, whether they sign a veteran, which makes the most sense, or trade for somebody. You'd rather not trade for anyone to give him a draft pick for a guy who's only going to be there a year. You know, there's a Garner Johnson type of player who could be around a couple of years, potentially. You know, obviously he came back. And, you know, they tried to, Eagles try to resign him the first time.

1:45.0

It just didn't work out.

1:46.7

But if they could find someone a younger guy that could trade for, like,
