The handwriting is on the wall for two former first-day Eagles draft picks. DE Jerome McDougle, a first-round pick in 2003, and RB Ryan Moats, a third-rounder in 2005, appear to be on the outside looking in as training camp approaches. McDougle, whose promising career has been derailed by injuries, now sits seventh on the DE depth chart following the offseason additions of free agent Chris Clemons and rookie Bryan Smith, who will be tried at end despite needing to bulk up (he’s reportedly up to 245 pounds and could weigh more when camp arrives). McDougle is entering the final year of his rookie contract and most likely won’t make it out of camp.
