UDFA’s for All: Closer Look at Eagles Post-Draft Additions
Each Year, For Areas of Roster Need, Right After the NFL Draft Is A Terrific Opportunity.
Each April, right after the selection of Mr. Irrelevant in that last pick of the 7th Round, the shopping trip begins for all thirty-two NFL Teams for Undrafted Free Agents.
The opportunity to add some additional top college talent at bargain prices to round out your roster is, in fact, priceless.

Jeff Stoutland isn’t just one of the best position coaches in the National Football League. He’s one of the best at developing talent for the Eagles on the offensive line.
When Australian Rugby player Jordan Mailata joined the team in 2018, he quickly developed into one of the best offensive linemen in the NFL.
Now, Jeff Stoutland has a new weapon to work with in the arsenal — Trenton, New Jersey native and Rutgers alumnus Hollin Pierce.
A four-year starter for Rutgers, Pierce brings a 6-foot-8, 344-pound frame and an incredible 36-inch wingspan to the Eagles.
Montrell Johnson, Jr.
At the running back slot, Montrell Johnson, Jr., is a solid addition behind Barkley, Shipley, and AJ Dillon.
With over 2,200 yards in three seasons at Florida, he is a power runner who will learn much from Dillon.
ShunDerrick Powell
ShunDerrick Powell from Central Arkansas can potentially be dangerous in the open field if he can add weight.
Taylor Morin
Taylor Morin is Wake Forest’s all-time receiving leader — he is an intriguing option as a punt returner and may push Ainias Smith and Johnny Wilson for a roster spot.
Brandon Johnson
Brandon Johnson from Oregon and Toledo’s Maxen Hook may have the potential to make the roster with the departure of CJ Gardner-Johnson.
Hook is a 3-time, first-team All-Mac safety.
Lance Dixon may also be a familiar name to some. He arrived at Toledo after playing at Virginia and formerly, Penn State.
Maxen Hook was also Quinyon Mitchell’s roommate at Toledo.
