The Eagles improved their depth on the interior defensive line today by signing defensive tackles Anthony Hargrove and Derek Landri. The Eagles only had two defensive tackles at practice today, but these signings should be allowed to start practicing tomorrow because Thursday is the first day of the league year.
Hargrove can also play defensive end, but he beefed up and is in better condition to play defensive tackle. Hargrove recorded one one sack in 14 games in 2010, but he recorded five sacks in 16 games last season. He will be a solid passing downs rotation guy for the Eagles.
Landri started 16 games with the Panthers last year and recorded 43 tackles and 3 sacks, and he will also enter the Eagles defensive tackle rotation. Like Hargrove, Landri is also a tweener, but he would have trouble playing defensive end.
