The last of 13 selections the Eagles had in 2010, Coleman has now arguably outperformed them all except Brandon Graham. Never spectacular, sometimes solid and often opportunistic, he played four seasons in Philly, two of them as a starting free safety. During that time, he garnered seven interceptions and a couple forced fumbles.

Coleman equaled those seven pickoffs (plus a sack and a TD) last season alone for the NFC champion Carolina Panthers. Naturally.
