15 undrafted free agents have now been given an opportunity to make the Philadelphia Eagles’ roster.

Some have better shots than others. Some are longshots, but 15 undrafted free agents have been added to the Philadelphia Eagles roster and will be given the opportunity to make the final unit. 90 men, now, currently sit on the roster, and on Friday, the undrafted rookies were announced by the organization.

Some are familiar. Some aren’t, but rookie minicamps begin at noon, and most of us will be familiar with all of them by the time the work week is over.

Let’s take a look at the newest Eagles.

More from Inside the Iggles

Just about everyone knows about the addition of running back Josh Adams out of Notre Dame. Joining him is another skill position ace, wide receiver Anthony Mahoungou. Guard Ian Park and offensive tackles Aaron Evans and Toby Weathersby round out the guys on the offensive side of the ball.

On the other side of the ball, defensive tackle Bruce Hector has been added. So has co-defensive ends Joe Ostman and Danny Ezechukwu and linebacker Asantay Brown. Pay attention to the secondary as well. Cornerbacks Chandon Sullivan and Jordan Thomas join four fellow defensive backs.

That includes safeties Jeremy Reaves and Ryan Neal and two guys from the mighty SEC. Their names are Stephen Robert, formerly of the Auburn Tigers and Dominick Sanders, a former member Georgia Bulldogs.
