One of the underrated heroes who have left is former guard Mekhi Becton. Picked up in free agency last year as a project after four years of failure with the New York Jets, Becton became Philadelphia's starting guard and developed into a Pro-Bowl caliber player in his first year with the team.

The Philadelphia Eagles have lost a lot of key defensive starters in free agency. For the first time this offseason, Philadelphia lost a free agent on the other side of the ball.  Mekhi Becton departed Philadelphia after reaching a deal with the Los Angeles Chargers,

The Eagles will likely lose Josh Sweat and Milton Williams in free agency, and right guard Mekhi Becton could join that trio. ESPN's Tim McManus reports that Becton and Philadelphia GM Howie Roseman have made no progress on a new deal as free agency approaches.
