The Philadelphia Eagles addressed a need in the secondary, adding former Clemson star safety K’Von Wallace at pick No. 127 of the fourth-round.
During free agency, the Eagles re-signed Rodney McLeod, re-signed Jalen Mills and moved him to safety, and then signed safety Will Parks away from the Broncos.
Effective as a Blitzer, Wallace will add another dimension to the Eagles secondary and fits with the current theme of positionless defenders in the secondary.
Here are 3 takeaways from the move:
***
1. Wallace is a versatile thumper
As the Eagles continue to add versatile defenders in the secondary, Wallace will be most successful as a downhill Blitzer and run stopper.
From ESPN Stats & Info, Wallace and teammate Isaiah Simmons were the only 2 players on the 2019 Clemson team with 50 tackles, 2 interceptions, and 2 sacks.
