With spring practices over, it’s time to reevaluate the Eagles roster.

In a part of the yearly calendar where there isn’t much to talk about with the Philadelphia sports teams, the media will do almost anything to grab at a storyline. Fletcher Cox’s “no-show” from OTA’s last week was an easy serve for the starving headline-grabbing local sports hounds.

The absences of Jason Peters and Donnie Jones at Eagles OTA’s drew essentially no criticism from the media, while Marcus Smith and Fletcher Cox have not been given a pass.
