Posted on 12. Apr, 2012 by Mike Burke.
The defensive tackle position is one that the Eagles seem to have a lot of interest in. Many are projecting the Eagles to take one in the first round. However, we all know that the Eagles like to surprise everyone, so there is no guarantee. One defensive tackle they may have their eye on is [...]

Eagles 2012 Draft Prospect: Marshall Defensive End Vinny Curry
Posted on 11. Apr, 2012 by Alec Beckman.
The Philadelphia Eagles have consistently shown a desire for terrific line play, drafting six linemen with their past seven first round picks. Out of those six linemen, four of them have been on the defensive side of the ball. The Eagles clearly value the success that comes along with great lines, but how do you [...]

Eagles 2012 Draft Prospect: California Linebacker Mychal Kendricks
Posted on 10. Apr, 2012 by Mike Burke.
After adding DeMeco Ryans, the likelihood of the Eagles looking for a linebacker in the first round has diminished. The option can’t be completely ruled out, but bringing in Ryans and Andy Reid’s track record tend to make you think that way. With two picks in the second round, this may be a more likely [...]

Eagles 2012 Draft Prospect: Alabama Safety Mark Barron
Posted on 09. Apr, 2012 by Mike Burke.
Nobody wanted to see Brian Dawkins go. He was and always will be a Philadelphia legend. The departure of Dawkins became even worse as the Eagles have continued to struggle in replacing him. When Quintin Mikell left, things seemed to get even worse. The Eagles have attempted to make efforts to bring in talent at [...]

Eagles 2012 Draft Prospect: North Carolina Defensive End Quinton Coples
Posted on 08. Apr, 2012 by Mike Burke.
Two years ago, the Eagles drafted Brandon Graham and hoped he could be a forceful pass rusher opposite Trent Cole. Graham is yet to live up to expectations, so the Eagles may try to find a young stud again this year. One option they may explore is North Carolina defensive end Quinton Coples. At 6-6 [...]

Posted on 08. Apr, 2012 by Mike Burke.
Notre Dame wide receiver Michael Floyd had a very productive career in college. He is drawing a lot of interest from teams in the top half of the first round, and the Eagles decided to check him out for themselves last week. At 6-3, 220 pounds, one of Floyd’s biggest assets is his size. He [...]

Eagles 2012 Draft Prospect: North Carolina Linebacker Zach Brown
Posted on 02. Apr, 2012 by Mike Burke.
With the addition of DeMeco Ryans, the Eagles may likely hold off drafting a linebacker in the first round.

Eagles 2012 Draft Prospect: Boston College Linebacker Luke Kuechly
Posted on 31. Mar, 2012 by Mike Burke.
When the 2011 season concluded and the 2012 mock drafts started popping up, Boston College linebacker Luke Kuechly and the Philadelphia Eagles were a very common match. With the Eagles acquiring DeMeco Ryans, Kuechly is less frequently matched with the Eagles. However, I think he is still very much on their radar and is a [...]

Eagles 2012 Draft Prospect: Notre Dame Safety Harrison Smith
Posted on 22. Mar, 2012 by Mike Burke.
The Eagles have really struggled at the safety position ever since Brian Dawkins left town. They have used second round draft picks on Nate Allen and Jaiquawn Jarrett the last two years, and neither player has panned out as they hoped. Allen has been good at times but has struggled with injury early on. I [...]

Posted on 21. Mar, 2012 by Mike Burke.
There’s no denying how talented the LSU defense was last year. One of the big contributors to that unit was defensive tackle Michael Brockers. Brockers is a large prospect at 6-5, 322 pounds but possesses great athleticism for a player of his size. He’s built from the ground up with very strong legs that allow [...]

How Does Acquiring DeMeco Ryans Affect Eagles Draft Outlook
Posted on 20. Mar, 2012 by Mike Burke.
After we seemed to wait and wait for the Eagles to sign a free agent linebacker, the team decided to go another direction, acquiring DeMeco Ryans via trade. The Eagles gave up their fourth-round selection and swapped third-round selections with the Texans in order to pick up Ryans. Unlike last season, the draft would be [...]
