Here are the top five options the Philadelphia Eagles have in free agency.

If you didn't live the back half of the top ten, maybe you'll like these guys better. The top five available defensive backs are as follows.

5. Logan Ryan, safety

This won't satisfy Philly's desire to develop a younger secondary, but Logan Ryan is a true professional that can help tutor some of these young safeties.

4. Bryce Callahan, cornerback

The last time we saw Bryce Callahan, the L.A. Chargers were blowing a big lead in Duval County during the playoffs. He has appeared in 82 games with 56 starts (that includes last year's playoff game), but he's small (five-foot-nine and 188 pounds).

3. Byron Jones, cornerback

During the 2020 offseason, James Bradberry and Byron Jones were the hottest names on the free-agent market. Philly is now home to the former. Might they consider taking a look at the latter?

2. Casey Hayward, cornerback

Casey Hayward is a former second-rounder that has more than 440 tackles on his resume. He has also racked 112 bass breakups and 25 interceptions. He should be on a short list if the Eagles want to make some calls.

1. Andrew Adams, safety

Are you noticing a theme here? How about another familiar face. Sure, Andrew Adams is another of the former Eagles on this list, but two his credit, he's probably also the best available free agent defensive back that's available.
