But the Eagles think they will be much better on that side of the ball. They need the defense to go to the next level to better their results from last year, when they won the NFC East and lost a first-round playoff game to New Orleans.
Safety Malcolm Jenkins, cornerback Nolan Carroll and first-round pick Marcus Smith are the major additions for a defense that was the worst in franchise history in yards allowed. The 6,304 yards the Eagles gave up were 15th-most in NFL history and the 4,636 passing yards were fifth-most.
Jenkins, a former defensive captain on the Saints, gives the secondary a leader it's been missing since Brian Dawkins left after the 2008 season. He signed a three-year, $16.25 million contract on the first day of free agency.
Smith, a linebacker from Louisville,Jerseys NFL Cheap, was a surprise selection by the Eagles with the 26th pick in the draft. He's unlikely to start right away in Philadelphia's 3-4 defense,Cheap Jerseys From China, but teammates rave about him.
"He's really stepped in and you really don't see him as a rookie," Ryans said. "He's like one of us already, like a vet already,Wholesale Nike NFL Jerseys, the way he's stepped in and just meshed with everybody in the locker room."
"We understand the depth and we're making each other better," Williams said.
"I feel like I'm out here making calls, running around, flying around," Wolff said. "Last year around this time, I was still trying to figure out what my coverages were. I was still kind of second-guessing myself. Now, I'm real comfortable. Now that I know it like the back of my hand, I can go out and call it and get ready to play."
Carroll gives the Eagles more depth at cornerback, where Cary Williams and Bradley Fletcher are the incumbent starters and Brandon Boykin is the starter at the nickel spot.
NOTES: Five-time Pro Bowl LB Kevin Greene is spending a few days in camp with the Eagles, giving them pass-rushing tips. Greene had 160 career sacks in a 15-year career with the Rams, Panthers,NFL Jerseys Cheap, Steelers and 49ers. "It's an honor to be out here and have him coaching me up," Smith said. Davis said Greene belongs in the Hall of Fame. "He shouldn't be here this week. He should be getting a gold jacket," Davis said. "The guy has got 160 career sacks and I know I'm prejudice to him but I really do believe it's time for him to be in the Hall."
"I've learned the defense really quickly and have been able to transition that on the field," Jenkins said. "I understand why they brought me in and that's to run the secondary and make the calls and I take that seriously so I put in a lot of time learning and studying. Now I'm at the point I sit down and talk to the coaches to see how we can to tweak it and go to that advanced course and really start to do some creative things."
Second-year safety Earl Wolff is among many players who feel more comfortable with Davis' system in training camp.
"He's added that true leadership to our back end that we needed," linebacker DeMeco Ryans said. "He's a guy who has stepped in and been vocal, a guy who has stepped in and made plays for us. He's not afraid to make the calls. He steps in. He's done a great job fitting right in with our defense. He's the piece we've been missing. He's really added a lot of experience to our defense,Wholesale Jerseys China, a lot of smarts. We really need him."
Jenkins had 48 tackles, 2 1/2 sacks, two interceptions and two forced fumbles in 14 games last year,Cheap Jerseys China, helping the Saints finish second against the pass.
The team is counting on players to improve because it's their second year under defensive coordinator Billy Davis. After a poor first month last season, the defense came along. While they were allowing yards at record-breaking numbers, they kept teams off the scoreboard. There was a stretch of nine straight games when the defense didn't allow more than 21 points.
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — While stats suggested the Philadelphia Eagles needed to overhaul their defense, they only made a few changes. And they are expecting vast improvement.
