Philadelphia Eagles Training Camp Coming Soon: 80 Players, 80 Questions/Speculations

Donovan McNabb—Can he stay healthy and take advantage of the talent assembled around him?

Kevin Kolb—Will he stay focused and prepared to step in if something were to happen to McNabb?

A.J. Feeley—Regardless of his untimely interceptions, is there a better third-string QB in the league?

Brian Westbrook—He needs to stay as healthy as possible, bottomline. I expect a successful rehab. He's a top-three running back when healthy.

LeSean McCoy—Westbrook's training camp abscence means plenty of opportunity for McCoy to absorb the playbook with pads on and adjust to the speed of the NFL. I'm confident his progress will be very positive.

Lorenzo Booker—There's a reason Booker was a healthy scratch for much of last season. But, there's also a reason the Eagles traded a fourth-round pick for him in 2008 and he has yet to be released. That's the Booker I want to see this season.

Eldra Buckley- Unless Buckley opens some eyes and outperforms Booker, I don't see him making it past the third preseason game.

Leonard Weaver-I expect a Pro Bowl season from Weaver, nothing less.

Kyle Eckel-Eckel may not be the starting FB, but if he proves that he can be reliable in short yardage situations, he may make the final cut.

Marcus Mailei-Mailei's best chances with the Eagles at this point is signing onto the practice squad. His future will depend on what Weaver does after this season when his contract expires.

Jeremy Maclin—Whether he comes out of the preseason a starter or not, I expect Maclin to have a huge impact on the Eagles offense this season.

DeSean Jackson—Can Jackson avoid the sophomore jinx and build on his successful rookie season?

Kevin Curtis—How serious is his hernia? Will he be ready to go full speed at the start of the regular season? We all know what he can do when he's healthy.

Jason Avant—Avant is the best third-down receiver, but can he take his game to another level?

Hank Baskett—His wife maybe hot, but his stats won't be. They don't need to be. Baskett just needs to be in position to have his strengths utilized a lot more.

Reggie Brown—Brown went from being a projected No. 1 receiver to being in danger of getting bumped off the roster by an undrafted receiver. He's talented enough to get some value in return, so I expect him to be traded sometime during the preseason.

Brandon Gibson—Due to his size and ability to contribute on special teams, I expect Gibson to make the final roster.

Shaheer McBride—How much did McBride learn after a year on the practice squad? I doubt he makes the team, but he's going to compete hard against Gibson and Baskett.

Brandon Robinson—Robinson must rely on his special teams play to have even a remote chance of making the team.

Marcus Thigpen—Thigpen's primary role is to take pressure off higher picks in the return game during the preseason. He has almost no chance at making the team.

Danny Amendola—Amendola is primarily a return specialist. I don't expect much more out of him.

Brent Celek- After the Eagles passed on trades for Kellen Winslow or Tony Gonzalez, the expectations are sky high for Celek. He's definitely shown the potential. Can he live up to it?

Cornelius Ingram—Injuries kept Ingram from being drafted on Day One. He says he's healthy now so I expect him compete hard with Celek for the starting spot.

Matt Schobel—Can Schobel finally prove that he could be a reliable third option at TE?

Eugene Bright—I expect Bright to compete strongly and eventually beat Schobel for the third TE spot.

Jason Peters—I expect nothing but big things from the Eagles biggest offseason acquisition.

Shawn Andrews—A healthy Shawn Andrews is almost guaranteed a Pro Bowl berth.

Stacy Andrews—The older Andrews' knee is one of the bigger concerns going into training camp. The Eagles' first free agent signee will dominate the right side with his brother when healthy.

Jamaal Jackson—Which Jamaal Jackson will show up? The one that was good enough to get Hank Fraley traded or the O-line's weakest link the past few years.

Todd Herremans—Can Herremans build on last year, which was probably his best?

Mike McGlynn—McGlynn is almost sure to get a lot more playing time this season, especially if Stacy Andrews and/or Jean-Giles aren't 100 percent.

Max Jean-Gilles—Can Jean-Giles fully recover from his broken ankle?

Mike Gibson—Whether or not Gibson makes it to the regular season depends on the health of others.

Dallas Reynolds—Something tells me Reynolds is going impress Juan Castillo a lot in training camp.

King Dunlap—After a year on injured reserve, Dunlap should have a strong chance at being Peters' backup.

Fenuki Tupou—The O-line depth may be so deep that Tupou at his best spends his rookie year on the practice squad or IR.

Chris Patrick—I predict that Patrick won't make the first cut.

Nick Cole—Reynolds is going to give Cole a run for his money in competition for backup center.

Paul Fanaika—See Fenuki Tupou

Trent Cole—I expect Trent Cole to just be Trent Cole. He just needs help from others so he doesn't wear down by the end of the season.

Victor Abiamiri—Can he stay healthy and take his game to the next level?

Broderick Bunkley—I expect more improvement and a Pro Bowl-caliber season.

Mike Patterson—See Broderick Bunkley; they've become a powerful tandem in the interior.

Chris Clemons—After a full season in Philly, I expect him to pick up where he left off at the end of last season.

Darren Howard—Can he duplicate his 10-sack performance last year at the age of 32?

Josh Gaines—The Penn St. product has his work cut out for him if he expects to make the team in September. A lot of talent awaits in front of him.

Jaqua Parker—If Abiamiri is healthy, Parker will excel as his backup.

Bryan Smith—After a year of getting his weight up, he should be ready to rotate on the right side of the line with Cole.

Trevor Laws—His rookie year is out the way. Laws will challenge Patterson for playing time in training camp.

Jervonte Jackson—Outside of being Jamaal Jackson's half brother, I don't know too much about him. He's going to mainly compete with Dan Klecko for a roster spot.

Dan Klecko—A much better defensive tackle than fullback. He should feel confident that he won't have to switch his weight and jersey number back and forth now.

Stewart Bradley—Bradley is going to step up and take over the defense. I see a Pro Bowl-caliber season coming.

Chris Gocong—Another year of experience means nothing but improvement for Gocong. I think he'll be much more involved in pass rushing this year.

Omar Gaither—Can he regain his starting job back? He needs to prove he can be more effective against the run to do that.

Akeem Jordan—Is the spot he took from Gaither his to keep or did he just have a good 6-7 games at the end of last year?

Tank Daniels—Will he continue to keep his roster spot with his special teams play?

Moise Fokou—Will he surprise people by making the team or is he destined for the practice squad?

Joe Mays—Will his hard hitting reputation earn him more time this year?

Tracy White—See Tank Daniels.

Charleston Hughes—Good size. We'll see what he brings in a few weeks.

Asante Samuel—He made the Pro Bowl last year, but expect an even better season from Samuel this year.

Sheldon Brown—He'll have a good training camp, but I'll be suprised if Brown's an Eagle past the trade deadline.

Ellis Hobbs—Be prepared for a younger version of Sheldon to start opposite Samuel in the near future.

Jack Ikegwuonu—At this time, his future with the Eagles depends on a judge's verdict.

Macho Harris—Projected to play safety, his versatility and return ability should keep him around.

Dimitri Patterson—I'll find out more about him in a few weeks.

Joselio Hanson—His contract extension alone raised the bar for him, but Hanson has the ability to step up to the challenge.

Courtney Robinson—His size and return ability give him a chance to slip onto the regular season roster.

Trae Williams—A long shot to make the team with the talent in front of him.

Quintin Mikell—Can he build on his leadership role and become and All-Pro without Brian Dawkins?

Quintin Demps—Will he successfully replace Dawkins and live up to the ball-hawk status that got him drafted? Will he continue to be the kickoff return threat?

Sean Jones- He'll push hard to take the starting spot from Demps. His experience may be the difference.

Rashad Baker—At first Baker was expected to be part of a formidable safety rotation. With the drafting of Macho Harris, the Camden, N.J. native is going to have to fight hard to secure a spot.

Byron Parker—Another long shot, he's gonna have to pull a few tricks out to get any sort of consideration.

Reshard Langford—Good size for a safety. But, like Parker, he's got an uphill battle with the players ahead of him.

David Akers—Does he have enough left in his leg to bring an encore of "Mr. Automatic"?

Sav Rocca—Can he maintain the accuracy he had last year. Some of his punts kept the Eagles in games.

Ken Parrish—Last year, Parrish had a better chance. Rocca has earned lots of respect from coaches since.

Jon Dorenbos—He should continue to hold down his spot at Andy Reid's favorite position.
