Eagles Special Teams Questions

Special Teams Can WR DeSean Jackson, S Quinton Demps, RB Lorenzo Booker,

or someone else finally fill the void at the return man position (have not had a return touchdown in awhile — kickoff return since 2001 or punt return since 2003)?

Will David Akers rebound from last season (2 for 10 from beyond 40 including an alarming 1 for 6 between 40 to 49 yards)?

Will the additions of veterans LB Rocky Boiman, TE Kris Wilson, DT Dan Klecko, FB Luke Lawton and the rookie draft picks help the Eagles’ coverage units?

In his second year, will Sav Rocca improve on his rookie numbers (42 yard average w/ 24 kicks inside the twenty-yard line)?

Front Office

Will the Eagles renegotiate RB Brian Westbrook’s contract?

Will the Eagles renegotiate the contract, trade, or keep unhappy CB Lito Sheppard?

Will the Eagles front office bring in any veteran players of note via trade or by off the street signing during training camp?

Will there be any ripples from the recently changed Eagles’ personnel department (i.e. The addition of Howie Roseman)?

Who’s contract, if at all, will the Eagles attempt to extend during the 2008 season (DE Trent Cole, TE LJ Smith, or others)?

Will the front office make a push to trade for any of the NFL’s growing list of disgruntled players including Bengals receiver Chad Johnson, Lions receiver Roy Williams, Cardinals receiver Anquan Boldin, Dolphins defensive end Jason Taylor and others?
