Eagles GM Howie Roseman on Andre Dillard:
"This was the best tackle in the draft, usually those guys go in the top 10 and that's how we had him rated. When he started to fall we saw him fall, we saw it as an opportunity to get a top 10 player. We're trying to load up on the lines," he said.
Dillard is yet another sign the Eagles are building more around Carson Wentz as Dillard will eventually replace Jason Peters at Left Tackle.
Dillard has made 39 straight starts at left tackle and only surrendered one sack in 2018.
