(Sirius) Indiana DE Victor Adeyanu just mentioned the Eagles as one of the teams most interested in him.

Quote49. Victor Adeyanju, DE, Indiana, 6-4, 268, 4.60, 2

Possibly the best defensive end no one is talking about. Held his own at Senior Bowl playing alongside Tamba Hali and Mathias Kiwanuka. Born in Nigeria. Was highly recruited high school prospect, but broken leg during his senior season caused many schools to look elsewhere.


Possible 2nd or 3rd rounder I guess.

No wonder the Eagles are interested.

I think he broke his leg in High School, not college.

Only thing I could really find on the guy from NFLDraftForecast:

Quote
Victor Adeyanju | #94
Defensive End - Indiana
Height: 6'4"
Weight: 275
A bundle of fine triangle numbers, Victor Adeyanju can be one of the more attractive prospects at the defensive end position and if he ends up a second day pick, whoever gets him will get a sleeper and a steal. Adeyanju is a remarkable athlete who is able to use is athletic upside to full circles. The scariest thing is that he knows how to combine his great size and excellent athleticism into one and with a mediocre physical game to boot. He is a quick mover who can change directions nicely and has great ball pursuit skills. He can chase down the ball from the opposite side of the field and uses his excellent short area and mid length speed to do so. He is strong and can be dominate against a lot of offensive lineman. He has the potential to be one of the best pass rushers out of this year's draft class. He still needs to get a little better physically as he is not totally overpowering against smaller offensive lineman; though he has the potential to do so. He always has some problems with his technique and isn't terrific, as he isn't able to really beat out offensive lineman with swim moves and rips. As of now, I think Adeyanju is an early day two pick, but could easily move his way into the first day with a strong showing at the combine.

Strengths:
• Tremendous athlete
• Nice size; uses it to his advantage
• Has good range; top notch ball pursuit skills

Weaknesses:
• Isn't totally dominate for a man his size
• Needs to get a little more physical
• His technique is okay at best

Nice.

Maybe he can be like the last good DE to come out of Indiana (Ogunleye...)

If they can get a WR and DE with their 2nd and 3rd picks I would be rather thrilled. I'm starting to lean towards DT in the first. Add a real LB, TheCharles and Mike Anderson to the haul and my offseason erection might poke all of your eyes out.

I'm hearing the Eagles have been talking with Quinton Porter, QB out of BC.

I wouldn't mind taking a flyer on Porter as an UDFA but if we use a draft pick on him I'll take a shtein in Andy Reid's cheesesteak
