The NFL.com’s Chad Reuter thought the Eagles did just fine on Night 2 of the draft:
Day 2 draft picks
Alabama OL Landon Dickerson (No. 37 overall)
Louisiana Tech DE Milton Williams (No. 73)
Day 1 grade: A
Analysis: The Eagles locked up a strong offensive lineman in Dickerson, who only lasted into the early second because of a history of injuries during his collegiate career. The Alabama center was announced as a guard when he was selected, which makes sense with 11-year veteran Jason Kelce re-upping for another season. I could certainly see Dickerson moving to the pivot whenever Kelce hangs ’em up, assuming he’s able to stay healthy.
The Eagles found a good value in Williams, whose pro day confirmed his extreme quickness. If he continues to add weight and maintain his foot speed, look out.
