Just to name some high draft picks that didn't work out. I don't usually point out the mid to late round picks because they are hit and miss anyway.
Quinton Caver
Jerome McDouble
Matt McCoy
Stewart Bradley
Victor Abiamiri
Brandon Graham
Jaiquawn Jarrett
Nate Allen
Daniel Te'o-Nesheim
Bryan Smith
Chris Gocong
Matt Ware
Those are all rounds 1-3. So I didn't even go into round 4. None of those players have worked out for the Eagles and the only ones remaining on the roster are Graham and Allen. Allen will probably be cut.

No problem. Reid won't need a defense. It's not like there's a team in the AFC West that can score a lot of points.
