PHILADELPHIA — The Philadelphia Eagles are turning to a rookie to replace Brian Dawkins.

Victor 'Macho' Harris took snaps with the first-team defense Monday, a strong indication he's beaten out second-year pro Quintin Demps for the starting spot at free safety

Smitty has a new safety to get aquainted with in double team coverage...

Mikell is the danger man anyway. He got pressure 25% of time he blitzed, had stops within the box on 23 of 27 times he dropped into run support, and gave up just 54% of passes completed against him in 2008.

He's a dead set beast in all facets of the game and the real reason (not $$$ or age) why Dawkins was allowed to walk.

As someone who goes to VT, I know very well of Macho. He often goes for the big play rather than the safe play. He will go for the bit hit rather than the pass break up. He's pretty athletic, but he will get burned on deep plays. He's very aggressive, and it will be the QB's job to make him take that one extra step in the wrong direction.

But yeah, I'm not worried. He's their Charles Godfrey, athletic guy who they're plugging into the spot because of potential.

    • Who were we going to trade up with? The Dolphins wanted Proctor, the Rams were vehement on taking Ty Simpson, the Ravens wanted Ioane, and the Bucs werent trading with us except for maybe a kings ransom. Even if we wanted to move, we had no partner. Moot point.
    • Devin Lloyd is a stud lb but who is next to him? Prince and Nic should improve. Lee was super value but i am not counting this fourth round chicken yet. I would expect some improvement; hope to eat my words w/ a top ten D.  
    • I mean I agree about diminished Cam probably still being viable. Even though it gave a preview of how teams would defend the pass against a limited QB. There was an issue with the upcoming contract he was due to get and his expectations vs the new reality of his physical status - that people tend to  overlook when looking back on it  It had an effect on things I believe   But I do have to ask… what about Tepper’s second major move? fuging clueless   I mean I would take even an injured  Cam over Bryce all day long.
