Louis Riddick is the Eagles "dream team architect" so to speak. Riddick, of course, was one of the worst FO executives here in Washington...yet no one ever speaks of that

I don't think that the 2011 Eagles suffered from a significant design flaw, I just think people vastly overrated a roster that needed that much outside help just to be competitive. I think they ended up a lot better off at the end of the year than they would of been without the free agency purges. The foundation of that team was weaker than they thought, and if the Eagles made a mistake it is that they didn't do enough to fix issues like LB and safety in the offseason.
