They may not have the lofty expectations of a draft pick, but these three Philadelphia Eagles UDFAs could still work their way into a prominent role in 2019

The Philadelphia Eagles may not have had a ton of picks in the 2019 NFL draft but they made the most of their selections.

They started things off by selecting the future at left tackle in Andre Dillard, then in the second round, they added two offensive weapons that should see a lot of playing time early in running back Miles Sanders, and wide receiver JJ Arcega Whiteside.

They closed out the festivities by taking another Nittany Lion in defensive end Shareef Miller and former Northwestern quarterback, Clayton Thorson.

While each of these players will come with varying levels of expectations, just being drafted means that the team believes they can help them out sooner rather than later. That typically isn’t the case with undrafted free agents. That being said, the Eagles did add some interesting names that I believe could contribute to a third straight playoff run in Philly.

Here are three Philadelphia Eagles UDFA’s that could make an impact in 2019.
