Eagles defensive coordinator Vic Fangio said the inside linebackers are more important than ever, but general manager Howie Roseman doesn't invest many resources there.
PHILADELPHIA – It’s to the point now, two weeks into training camp, where it starting to feel like Zack Baun will be the starter next to Devin White in defensive coordinator Vic Fangio’s defense.
It hasn’t been perfect, but options are few at this point. Nakobe Dean could make a surge to wrest the job away, or rookie Jeremiah Trotter, Jr., might come on strong, or maybe Ben VanSumeren could remove the cloak of invisibility he has been wearing this summer. “It's been good at times; not so good at other times,” he said. “We need to win a high percentage of the battles when we go against a running back. Some guys have been good; some not so up to this point.”
“But yet they still run the ball a good deal. So, the ILB position has become a more demanding position in this last decade or so. It's hard to play good defense without good ILB play. These guys are working hard to get to that level.” At least Baun, who played mostly on special teams with the Saints, has flashed toughness in camp and the ability to make plays as a blitzer and pass rusher.
