Marshall’s Tavante Beckett could be a star in the Philadelphia Eagles’ defense.

Thundering Herd linebacker Tavante Beckett is a ball of energy, one that would speed the Philadelphia Eagles defense up immediately. Considered undersized at five-foot-ten and 220 pounds, Beckett has all of the tools and the skill set to be a star at the highest level of football.

Blessed with incredible football intelligence, Beckett always seems to be in the right place at the right time. Considered a tone-setter, this young man is a high motor guy, one that is extremely disciplined in his play and diagnoses what the opposing offense is doing quickly.

With Alex Singleton manning the middle of the second level of Philly’s defense, Beckett would be the perfect addition as he would be free to make play after play for a hungry Eagles defense. The Philadelphia Eagles need to add a player with Beckett’s intangibles and ability if they are ever going to truly compete in the NFC.

The Marshall product could be a huge addition for the Eagles, one that could turn into a great investment down the road.
