Round 4, Pick 124: K’Von Wallace, S, Clemson
The Eagles need to add a safety this offseason and will hopefully do that in free agency as Rodney McLeod is a free agent and Malcolm Jenkins is still elite, but he isn’t getting younger. If they do not add one in free agency, there is a good one they can add in the middle rounds.
I am enamored by former Clemson safety K’Von Wallace. There is something about the way he plays the game that is enjoyable. He was also the team captain at Clemson and that holds a lot of weight for the Eagles.
Wallace may need some time to thrive in the NFL, but I think he has the traits to succeed as a long, successful starter in the league. He could plugin as the Eagles’ No. 3 safety right away, with the potential to be a leader on their defense for years to come.
