This prospect could be a long-term tackle for the Philadelphia Eagles.

Virginia Tech Hokies offensive tackle Christian Darrisaw is a wall of a weapon that would boost the Philadelphia Eagles immediately. At six-foot-five and 315-pounds he has the rare combination of size, graceful footwork, and the athletic ability to be an offensive stalwart for years.

Watching Darrisaw’s film makes it is easy to see his potential. He’s as good in the run game as he is in the passing game. He’s also a true leader in the locker room and someone the Philadelphia Eagles can expect to take shape in the NFL. Darrisaw has the football IQ that could help the Eagles offense take a giant step forward in 2021.

If the Eagles front office has the opportunity to land the Virginia tech product, they should jump at the chance immediately. He has all of the tools and the skill set to be the Eagles’ new ‘Bodyguard’ for years to come, and that’s something that every Birds fan should get very excited about.
