Sports Xchange reports when asked about Philadelphia Eagles rookie DT Brodrick Bunkley's progress during the team's spring minicamps, Eagles' defensive coordinator Jim Johnson suggested that the rookie has struggled. "I think the light has come on just a little bit more this last week," he said. "I think he's played much better. I think his technique has improved a little, for what we want. But it's still a work in progress. He's not there yet." Bunkley figures to be part of a four-man tackle rotation this season that likely also will include DTs Mike Patterson, Darwin Walker and Sam Rayburn.
