Vic Fangio on Eagles' biggest position battles: CB, LB, and maybe edge rusher

The Eagles have a loaded roster, but the biggest uncertainties and position battles will likely occur on the defensive side of the ball.

On Thursday, new defensive coordinator Vic Fangio addressed the media and was asked about the biggest and most intense position battles. It was no surprise that the cornerback spot opposite Darius Slay, the inside linebacker spot, and the edge rusher would see the most competition.

Quinyon Mitchell, Isaiah Rodgers, and Kelee Ringo will battle for the cornerback spot opposite Darius Slay. Devin White should be a Day 1 starter at the inside linebacker spot, leaving Zack Baun, Nakobe Dean, Oren Burks, and Jeremiah Trotter Jr. to battle for the weak-side linebacker spot.

At the edge rusher spot, Bryce Huff is a Day 1 starter, but Josh Sweat, Brandon Graham, Nolan Smith, and others could all compete for that role.
