The Eagles have picked DT Jeffrey Owens out of Georgia with the 243rd overall pick (7th round) of the NFL Draft.  Owens has the size to handle the job at 6’1″, 304 pounds but he doesn’t have much athletic ability limiting him to making plays between the tackles.  Owens played in 13 games for the Bulldogs last season in which he had 32 tackles, 4 tackles for a loss and 1.5 sacks.  He played in 52 games in his time with Georgia in which he finished with 102 tackles, 12.5 tackles for a loss, 5.5 sacks, he broke up 3 passes and he forced 2 fumbles.  Owens will have to really bring his A-game in training camp if he wants to make the Eagles’ opening day roster.
