Hey, what's happening everybody. Welcome into this edition of the Checo Daily,

0:13.6

Andrew DeCecho here, rounding out our positional preview series on the inside of the

0:18.5

bird's platform with the cornerback position.

0:21.9

And he should feel really good about where the Eagles stand at this position group because

0:26.4

there's intriguing players vying for roster spots. There's also a couple of players that I find

0:33.4

to be really interesting that are vying for a starting spot, which we'll get into momentarily.

0:38.6

But we're not going to spend a ton of time really, you know, delving deep into the outlook of

0:45.1

1:33.7

which also suggests that the arrow is trending up and he can even get to another level this season,

1:39.3

although he's not going to be taking the NFL by storm.

1:42.4

Teams will throw his way now now and now we have to look

1:46.0

and see how he responds to that but i mean i think i can't say enough good things about what he's

1:51.4

able to do from that cornerback position doesn't talk a ton when he's on the field you see

that he exudes confidence and that is one of the hallmarks at that position.
