The Philadelphia Eagles select Alex Boone, OT, Ohio State.
It's a boom or bust pick here and since it's the 7th round and it's the Eagles last pick....they can afford to make it. The Eagles needed two OTs coming into the draft and that was after they signed Stacy Andrews away from the Bengals in the offseason. Xavier Fulton in the 3rd round will hopefully kick in at the LT spot and play well. Since Andrews is penciled in at the RT spot.....Boone can sit and deal with his offseason issues. Once Andrews is injured (because you know he will be)...Boone can come in and man the RT spot (hopefully). If he doesn't work out....it was a 7th round pick...nothing lost.
