The DiCecco Daily: How Do Eagles Best Address Areas Of Concern? · Inside the Birds: A Philadelphia Eagles Podcast

  Speaker 1: Hey, what's happened everybody? This is to check o'daly. I
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: am Andrew de Checko, Eagles beat reporter for insidethebirds dot Com,
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: and I'm not going to spend a ton of time
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: talking about this, but I do want to touch on it.
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: Kevin Petullo has landed on his feet perry report from
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: NFL Networks Mike Garifolo. Patullo will become the past game
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: coordinator for the Miami Dolphins, working under Bobby Slowick, who
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: was newly appointed offensive coordinator. And also included in Garifolo's
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: report was that Patullo spoke to quote unquote multiple teams
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: regarding assistant roles and that part of his responsibilities will
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: be helping first year head coach Jeff Hafley with head
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: coaching responsibilities throughout the week and on game day. So
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: there is your Kevin Petullo news, and I think that
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: should dispel any notion that he was going to fade
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: into obscurity and that no team would touch him with
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: a ten foot pole. I think that also suggests that
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: coaches around the league, or at least all it takes
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: is one team, really are aware that the Eagles offensive
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: struggles last season were multi layered. I've talked at length
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: about that throughout the season. No, he did not perform
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: well in his role. In his first year as Eagles
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: offensive coordinator. The offense was twenty fourth in total offense
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: and towards the bottom tier of the league in other categories.
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: And I thought that play calling left a lot to
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: be desired. But it's a little naive to think that
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: he was the sole reason or the primary culprit for
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: things not going according to plan for the Eagles. And
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: I think that there was a lot of venom that
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: was spewed at the direction of Kevin Patulo that crossed
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: the line of excess, and I thought in some cases
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: it was misguided. And I've sort of maintained that stance
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: throughout the season, gathering information throughout the year and just
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: you know, just watching the offense operate from afar. I mean,
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: it's a nuanced conversation, and it's so easy to point
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: the finger at one person and say he's the problem.
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: But when the offense has looked the same more or
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: less for a number of seasons, I think, I mean,
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: it's kind of hard to look at Patulo and say
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: he fell short. He was the reason why the train
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: went off the tracks, if you will, he brought he
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: came over to Philadelphia in twenty twenty one. Was the
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: pass game coordinator for the Eagles in that remarkable twenty
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: twenty two season that Jalen Hurts put on a show
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: in terms of throwing the football. Aj Brown finished with
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: four hundred and ninety six yards, Devonte Smith one thousand,
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: one hundred and ninety six receiving yards. Both of those
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: totals are career highs for those players. Dallas Goddard had
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: seven hundred and two yards receiving that year, and it
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: was just sort of a high flying offense that really
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: pushed the ball down the field. They didn't quite make
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: the mark in the Super Bowl, but that was a
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: part of that season, a part of Kevin Batullo's resume
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: that I think gets conveniently overlooked, and he was a
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: part of it. Jaywen went out there and executed, The
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: players went out there and executed. Shane Steichen was calling
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: the plays, but Kevin Bittula was a part of that
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: as the pass game coordinator. In twenty twenty three, the
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: Eagles had a top ten offense. Say what you will
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: about how it looked. But the facts of the matter.
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: The fact of the matter is they certainly had a
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: top ten offense under Brian Johnson with Kevin Patulo as
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: the pass game coordinator. And in twenty twenty four the
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: pass game did not look particularly well, but in fact
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: it was far far more underwhelming, I would say, than
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: the twenty twenty three season. But Kevin Batula was a
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: part of that as well. And when you look at
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: the twenty twenty four season, a lot of times I hear, yeah,
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: but the Steelers game, or the NFC Championship or the
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: Super Bowl, those were good passing performances. Yes, Kevin Petullo
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: was also a part of that. So while I'm not
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: by any means saying that he had a resume without
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: blemishes here in Philadelphia, I think a lot of the
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: scrutiny went to an extreme place, and I thought that
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: a lot of the criticism eventually morphed into abuse and
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: vandalism in the most extreme case, and I didn't think
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: that that was I don't think that was fair. I
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: think that's a disgrace. But it's nice to see that
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: Petullo landed on his feet. Is in a different situation
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: and if he performs well in that role with Miami.
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: Who knows, maybe he's best suit to be a pass
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: game coordinator. But nevertheless, I'm closing the chapter on the
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: Kevin Petullo story, and I wanted to make sure that
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: I brought everybody up to speed there now, keeping things
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: things fresh here. Looking at the Eagles roster and how
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: the Eagles might shape it in free agency in the draft.
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: A question was posted to me by my friend John
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: Kincaid on The Fanatic this morning, and I kind of
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: wanted to expand on it. How at least in my estimation,
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: I'm going to try to apply logic to best address
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: some of the areas of concern, whether it be through
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: free agency or the draft. And I think a lot
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: of it is going to be positioned dependent, and I'll
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: explain in terms of the offensive line, you could certainly
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: stand to add an interior player, maybe even a reserve tackle.
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: Let's not forget Brett Tooth and Fred Johnson'll be free agents.
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: It's unrealistic to expect the Eagles to address all of
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: their needs in the draft. They always have so many picks,
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: and so you have to strategize with how you're going
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: to approach free agency. When it comes to the offensive line,
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: I would be more inclined to add an experienced player
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: there in free agency. The first player who comes to mind,
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: and I'm not reporting anything, I'm sort of looking at familiarity,
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: cost and all. That would be Dalton Reisner, who was
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: a guard when Chris Cooper was with the Broncos, and
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: he was also part of Chris Cooper's offensive line group
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: that he oversaw when he was with the Vikings for
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: two seasons, So there's familiarity there. He has an idea
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: of how Cooper likes things coached up. The technique is
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: something he's going to be well versed in and it's
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: not going to be cost prohibitive by any stretch. And
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: so I think that the fact that he can play
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: left or right guard would make it appealing. And I think,
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: to a larger point, you want to bring in an
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: offensive lineman that has experienced because first and foremost, we
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: don't yet know how Chris Cooper will fare in terms
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: of player development. Versus the different approach with Jeff Stoutlin.
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: You felt comfortable with him drafting alignment on day one,
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: two or three, knowing that he was going to develop
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: that player and aid in helping them maximize their potential.
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: But given this scenario and that there's so much that's
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: unknown with Chris Cooper, I think that Eagles could stand
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: to add a player of some experience in free agency,
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: whether that's a Dalton Reisner. Ed Ingram's a player who
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: I find to be fascinating. I imagine he's going to
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: command upwards of ten million a year. He's twenty seven
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: years old. Was with Chris Cooper with the Vikings, didn't
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: perform well there, ends up getting traded to the Houston
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: Texans and last season puts together the best season of
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: his career and he was a right guard. But I
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: think when you're looking at from a price point perspective
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: and fit, those are two players that I would think
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: would be appealing. Now there's going to be other teams
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: who are going to be looking at those players as well,
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: and it could be their respective teams right now that
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: want to keep them in house. But those are just
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: two examples of players that I would look at because
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: I think you have to trend towards experience with the
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: offensive line because of the developmental piece. If you draft
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: a player early that you're counting on and you're not
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: sure about his development skills. Chris Cooper. I mean, it's
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: kind of hard to forecast them stepping in and playing
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: a prominent role for the team, and it just clouds
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: the picture a little bit from an offensive standpoint. Now,
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: edge rusher, for example, I think it would serve the
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: Eagles well to do whatever they can to retain Jaywin Phillips,
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: depending on what the financials dictate, right, because you certainly
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: can't afford to overspend to keep him in the building.
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: But you have j Looks Hunt, you have Noan Smith.
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: I don't know that relying on a day one or
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: a day two edge rusher is going to solve your problems.
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: It actually creates more questions because you don't quite know
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: what a young player is going to provide. It's more
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: of a project versus a player like Jalen Phillips, who
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: you already know is going to be able to provide
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: you a healthy amount of snaps. You already know that
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: he can be a player who will thrive in a
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: Vic Fangio defense. He's who Vic Vangio has a lot
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: of trust and confidence in, and you know that he
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: can headline that group. Maybe you take a player on
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: Day two or Day three to round out that group
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: and give you a player with developmental upside. But I
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: think it would serve the Eagles well if financials work out.
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: We don't quite know what he's going to command, especially
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: with the injuries that he's had in his career. He
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: could be a little bit all over the map, But
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: I think it would serve the Eagles wealth they're able
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: to make it work and bring Jalen Phillips back into
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: the fold. When it comes to safety, Red Blankenship will
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: be a free agent. And for all the great things
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: that Red Blankenship has done for Philadelphia, and he's been
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: lauded for his ability to serve as a traffic cop
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: back there, make sure everyone's aware of their assignments. What
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: he lacks in athleticism, he more than makes up for
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: with football intellect, physicality, toughness, and instincts. The way the
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: league is trending in the modern NFL, you have to
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: be able to cover, and you have to be able
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: to be versatile and rangey and just cover a lot
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: of ground. They already have that in Drew mccuba, but
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: I think they could stand to get a little bit
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: more athletic with the player who they're pairing next to him,
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: and give them another young player to grow with Quinna Metell,
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: Cooper Dejen and Drew mccuba. And we'll see. Because Rei
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: Blankenship is beloved here in this city. The organization loves
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: Red Blankenship, He's probably gonna have his handful of suitors.
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: He may have more value to the Eagles than he
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: would ordinarily to another team, but I think that the
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: Eagles could stand to upgrade in that area. And that's
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: where I would look to the draft, because you have
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: confidence in Joe Casper, who of course replaced Christian Parker
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: as defensive backs coach, to develop those players and allow
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: them to maximize their potential because he's done it before.
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: He has a growing resume that shows exactly that there's
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: been a lot of players when he was the safety's
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: coach that experience varying degrees of success under his eye.
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: And so I think that also plays into it. You
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: know the caliber of coach that they would be coming
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: in and working under, and I think that would give
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: them a little bit more confidence to go that route
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: in the draft.
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: Hey, Philly Fans, game day is stressful enough parking, traffic,

  Speaker 4: Birds that's getsold dot com promo code birds for thirty
• 14:48
  Speaker 4: percent off.
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: Now with the tight end position, that's where it gets
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: a little interesting. Because Dallas Goddard is a free agent,
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: and I think at thirty one years old, given his
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: injury history, he would maybe to me, he would be
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: a player that I think would be someone the Eagles
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: would want to keep in house. And he may not
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: command as much as what everyone's expecting because of what
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: I just outlined. He has an innate rapport with jaywhen hurts.
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: That's been evident throughout the years. You saw it in
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: real time last season. And they don't have any other
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: players at that position under contract aside from E. J.
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: Jenkins and Jahem Bell, and so that to me, would
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: be the most logical course of action to keep Dallas
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: Goddard in house for a year and then you draft
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: his replacement in the draft this year. And while there
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: are players you can of course find on Day three
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: that are intriguing dart throws, the Eagles are not in
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: a position where they can afford to do that, not
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: if you're relying on that player to be the successor
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: for Dallas Goddard. So I think on day one or
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: day two you have to identify the air apparent, and
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: I look at someone around pick sixty eight, Max Claire,
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: the tight end from Ohio State, who kind of reminds
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: me of Zach Ertz in terms of his route running, prowess,
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: his ability to find the sauce spots in the zone.
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: He plays through contact, but he is a better blocker
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: than zach Ertz is. He would be a player that
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: I would target right there on day two, and I
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: think the Eagles fall right within his range there around
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: sixty eight or so. That would be a player that
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: you could bring him in. He's gonna have to learn
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: under Ryan Mahaffey, who was the run game coordator, a
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: new tight ends coach, replacing Jason Michael and become the
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: understudy for Goddard and then take the rains next season
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: versus taking a dart throw in day three. You think
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: you have something there, but you don't know. This gives
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: you a surefire option that you have him in the
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: meeting room, you have him on the practice field, you
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: mold them the way that you want to, and then
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: next season he's able to take the rains. It's almost
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: like a passing of the baton in a way, from
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: Goddard to whoever his successor is. And then I think
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: you look at the cornerback position, and yes, I've been
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: a big supporter of adri Jackson. I've written about him
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: a ton. I've talked to him plenty of times last season,
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: great guy who I view as a survivor. He was
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: the last man standing in a crowded house of corners
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: and he deserves a lot of respect for that. But
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: I do believe it Eagles could stand to upgrade in
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: that cornerback two spot. You look what the Seattle Seahawks
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: did in the Super Bowl and they just bottled up
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: the New England Patriots and they didn't have a sore
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: spot in the secondary for me. And there's some intriguing
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: names that I'll get to another podcast of free agent
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: corners that I think would be a good fit and
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: give you a little bit more of an upgrade. They
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: can sort of be a competent stop gap while you
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: seek a player, whether it be in the third or
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: fourth round, to be someone that the Eagles can look
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: at with developmental upside. He grows under Casper for a
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: year and then next season he's able to kind of
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: step into that role. Then all of a sudden, you
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: have yourself a really young secondary. But I think right now,
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: because of the learning curve and how that can be
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: a little daunting for corners, that's where I think you
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: could add a veteran type of player, and again I'll
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: get into all those names at a later date, but
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: that's just some of the things that I've been kicking
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: around here and how I might approach this offseason where
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: there are so many areas of need for the foot
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: off Eagles, and that's going to do it for this
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: edition of a czech Odeli. I'm Andrew to Checko and
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: I'll catch you all on the next one.
