What we saw from Day 1 at Lehigh

The Philadelphia Eagles day 1 of training camp started yesterday with a walk through in the morning then a no pads practice in the afternoon (The pads go on this friday) and a few players were the winners in my mind of day one.
1. Cliff Harris CB: Cliff Harris had 2 interceptions yesterday after being re-signed by the Eagles this week and he looked pretty comfortable in his first day. I as everybody needs to see more of that when the pads go on. Could he make the roster? I think so it depends on how many corners that the Eagles keep but I think he has a legitimate chance.
2. Bryce Brown RB: Brown looked pretty good out there catching some nice passes but the main thing that sticks out in my mind is that he looks fast and when you are talking about a big running back like Brown mentioning speed is a great thing. I expect him to push Dion Lewis and eventually beat him out for the #2 job but again I need to see him with the pads on and then we will talk.
3. Nick Foles QB: Foles threw the ball with a lot of zip yesterday and made some beauty passes. He spread the ball around and even on one play rolled out to the right and made a nice on the move PA pass to the TE. Like Reid said I expect him to push Mike Kafka for the #2 Job so lets see how much more he improves during training camp and preseason. 

Day 2 starts today and we will see who sticks out the most. I will predict the depth chart in my next article so stay tuned.
