Eagles Wake-Up Call: Whither the 2011 Draft Class?

Philadelphia Eagles right guard Danny Watkins.Look closely at Thursday’s game against the Jets, and you will see the 2011 Eagles draft class fighting for its life.

Five of the 11 draftees — Jaiquawn Jarrett, Dion Lewis, Brian Rolle, Greg Lloyd and Stanley Havili — are no longer with the team. Jarrett will be on the field Thursday as a member of the  Jets, as the Temple product tries to breathe life back into his career.

Two of the six remaining members — fourth-round pick Alex Henery and sixth-rounder Jason Kelce — are safe. The rest, not as much. Casey Matthews and Julian Vandervelde are on the fringe. Third-round pick Curtis Marsh is in murky waters after breaking his hand.

And then there is Danny Watkins.

Understanding Chip Kelly’s Approach To Defense

0V3J8539Kelly has made it known that he will not micromanage Billy Davis and his defense, particularly on game day. For answers about the day-to-day workings on defense, it’s best to ask Davis directly.
