Round 5, Pick 168: Shyheim Carter, S, Alabama
The former Alabama defensive back is a tough evaluation because where is his best fit on defense in the NFL? Is he a slot corner? Is he a safety? Can you play him at the outside corner? All of these questions are good questions to ask if the player is worth figuring out, and Shyheim Carter is worth figuring out in the 5th round.
Philly is obviously hurting for defensive backs, so adding another guy to the mix that can likely play multiple positions would be smart. At a minimum, Carter will add depth while also being able to contribute on special teams right away. He also has a chance to become a starter with time and coaching. Even though his size is in question, I like his competitive nature and I think he has a chance to become a starting No. 3 safety in the NFL.
