8. player. 54. They traded up with the Dolphins and now have the eighth pick in the draft.  They Eagles could use a running back as they traded last years’ free agent signing DeMarco Murray.  Ohio State’s Ezekiel Elliot would be a nice replacement for Murray and would be on the board.  However, I think the Eagles have bigger needs to address than running back and offensive tackle is that need.  They’ve re-signed quaterback Sam Bradford so the Eagles need to bolster the talent at offensive tackle.  Notre Dame’s Ronnie Stanley is one of the top offensive tackles in the draft.  Jason Peters isn’t getting any younger and the Eagles could install Stanley for the next ten years as their left tackle.   . Offensive Tackle. Notre Dame. Ronnie Stanley
