Philadelphia has a loaded roster, but there are burning questions at every position ahead of training camp.

Offseason workouts and OTAs offered an opportunity for new additions and seven 2023 NFL draft picks to get fully acquainted with the Eagles’ culture.

There were position switches, a newly paid franchise quarterback, and star power at about every position.

With a little less than a month remaining until training camp, we’re looking at one takeaway from each position group.

Eagles’ 53-man roster prediction following OTAs

We’re updating our Philadelphia Eagles 53-man roster prediction by jersey number after OTAs and ahead of training camp in July

The Eagles had the lightest workload of all 32 NFL teams, and they wrapped up the offseason workouts and OTAs with an inspiring final practice inside the bubble at the NovaCare Complex.

While 19 teams across the league will hold mandatory minicamps this week, the Eagles will break for a little over a month before reconvening for training camp on July 25. 

Several prominent named veterans had a limited role this spring, so several rookies took advantage of the offseason program.

With training camp fast approaching, here’s an updated 53-man roster prediction.

Eagles’ Cam Jurgens looking to establish his own identity at right guard position

Philadelphia Eagles’ second-year offensive lineman Cam Jurgens looking to establish his own identity at right guard position

[connatix div_id=”3f8b015acdd24c648befc5d5dac47469″ player_id=”afe1e038-d3c2-49c0-922d-6511a229f69c” cid=”7cbcea0d-4ce2-4c75-9a8d-fbe02a192c24″]

The Eagles build from the inside out, and after watching two key contributors leave for the AFC, Howie Roseman added reinforcements to the NFL’s top offensive line.

The likely successor to Jalen Kelce at the center position, Cam Jurgens, will spend 2023 adjusting to the right guard position after Isaac Seumalo departed via free agency.

Asked about comparisons to teammate Landon Dickerson and other bigger offensive guards, Jurgens talked about paving his way to NBC Sports Philadelphia.

“I’m not quite the 350-pound Landon,” Jurgens said, “so I handle things differently.”

Earlier in the week, Jurgens admitted that he weighed 305 pounds but was looking to bulk up some more ahead of training camp.

Jurgens will be one of the more undersized guards in the league but he talked about carving out his path at the position.

“I think we’re still playing the game of football, hitting people,” Jurgens said. “So just trying to go to my strengths. I want to be an athlete in any spot I am. I don’t want to fit a pizza cutter mold of whatever a right guard is supposed to be. I just want to be out there and be a good O-lineman.”

The former Nebraska center will compete with Tyler Steen at the right guard position, and it could be a one-year transition if Jason Kelce retires after this season.

We’re about seven days from the start of OTAs, and it’ll offer 17 rookies the opportunity to compete for a limited number of starting opportunities and roster spots.

Philadelphia did a solid job of retooling its roster after losing ten critical contributors during free agency.

Throw in Nakobe Dean, Jordan Davis, and Cam Jurgens, and Philadelphia is stacked with depth at every key position that suffered attrition.

The Eagles have almost 90 players on the offseason roster after adding seven draft picks, and nine undrafted free agents.
