Eric Fisher – The same reasons given for why the Eagles would draft Joeckel can be said for Fisher. He is the other tackle that some teams have at the top of their board. He has flew up the draft boards since his dominating week at the senior bowl. He followed that up with a strong combine. He would again take over on the left side if Peters can’t go and if he can he would take over the right side and give the Eagles a great set of bookends to work with.

Dion Jordan – The eagles have Trent Cole and Brandon Graham as pass rushers, but we don’t know how they will translate to the new defense that Kelly is bringing with him. Jordan played in that defense last year and was dominant in it. He can do everything that you want a DE/OLB in that defense to do. He can get to the QB, he is fluid enough to drop in coverage and cover TEs and RBs. He is a former WR and TE so you know he can play in space. This seems like a logical fit to me.
