22. Philadelphia Eagles
Kony Ealy
Defensive End, Missouri

This could be a pipe dream of mine but it is possible however unlikely Ealy will be available when the Eagles get their turn. But his 6-foot 5-inch frame at 273 pounds makes him a beast on the defensive line. With his strength and agility he would fit very nicely in Philadelphia Eagles defensive coordinator Billy Davis’ 3-4 defense. He comes off the snap a little high and is susceptible to cut blocks and works better as a pass rusher but Davis could help him transition as a run defender as well.
