The Eagles receiving a 5th round selection for Matt Tobin is a win-win for the Birds, who could use as much fire power in the 2018 draft. Right now, the Eagles probably feel like they have other players that could step in as a reserve tackle.
The 27-year-old, former undrafted free agent, has played both guard and tackle for the Eagles, with 13 starts in 2015. In the last four years, Tobin has appeared in 42 games with 21 starts on his career resume.
