I was listening to a mock draft yesterday on SiriusXM’s NFL Channel (#88). During the ‘Moving The Chains’ segment, Pat Kirwan selected a safety with the Eagles first pick. He picked Toledo’s Emmanual McNeil-Warren with pick #23. It got me thinking as to how the Eagles have faired when drafting safeties. Sure, they’ve hit on some great players in the past (Wes Hopkins, Andre Waters, Brian Dawkins), but they’ve also had a lot of misses. With that in mind, I compiled a list of safeties the Eagles have drafted in the past 25 years for conversation.<\/p>\n
