Daily News | Eagles trade up to draft Georgia DT Jalen Carter with their top pick
The Eagles traded up one spot in the NFL draft to secure Georgia defensive tackle Jalen Carter with the No. 9 overall pick.
The Eagles had Carter in for a predraft visit and also met with him at the NFL scouting combine. It’s important to note Carter has said Davis was a mentor to him during their shared time in college. When asked about the potential concerns about Carter before the draft, Eagles general manager Howie Roseman pointed to chief security officer Dom DiSandro as a resource for the organization as it did its due diligence on the defensive tackle.
“I think every decision is unique to the player and the situation. So we’ll have every piece of information at our disposal and be ready to make a decision on anyone who has a situation that’s maybe a little bit outside the norm.” Carter’s slide was precipitated by a series of moves in the top 10. The first cleared hurdle of the night came at No. 2 overall, when the Houston Texans took quarterback C.J. Stroud. Houston traded up to the third pick as well for edge rusher Will Anderson, but still left two if the three premier pass rushers — Tyree Wilson and Carter — on the board going into the fourth selection.
