54. . . . Curtis Marsh, 3rd Round. . player

90th-overall selection (2011)

You remember the 2011 NFL Draft, don’t you? Andy Reid drafted a guard who was 26 years old in the first round because he ‘liked football’ (and Cameron Jordan was taken just one spot later). Philly used a fourth-round choice on a kicker. They found a few guys whose names jumped off of the page (Jaiquawn JarrettCasey Matthews, and Greg Lloyd, Jr.), but none of them turned out to be stars.

They found a center who’s quietly worked his way into a potential Hall of Fame career (Jason Kelce), and he’ll forever be remembered as the valedictorian of this class, but unfortunately, this draft, like so many others that were directed by Reid is one that’s chock full of forgettable players.

That brings us all to Curtis Marsh, who actually enjoyed two runs in an Eagles jersey. Unfortunately, the only thing that the ‘Birds’ got out of the deal was 24 games, 14 tackles, and a pass breakup. To make matters worse, Philly and every other team had several shots at Richard Sherman, and they passed on him each time. He wound up with the Seattle Seahawks in Round 5. The rest, as they say, is history. Grade: F
