maybe hand cannoneer could do something to the eagles, and then you might want to add cavalry, skirmishers or siege onangers to deal with the plumes. You probably want hand cannons at the rear, so they are safe from the plumes.

Maybe skirmishers+champions might also work, it you have the skirmishers on the front-line and only use the champs if they can get a hit.

Some unique units might also do a decent job like cataphracts, magyar hussar (depending on the ratio of eagles/plumes) and boyar. Maybe Condottiero is also decent against both. I think Elephants are also to tanky for eagle warriors.
