The Eagles moved down in Round 5, sending their 164th overall pick to the Dolphins. With the selection, Miami took Boise State defensive end Curtis Weaver.
Philadelphia will slide down to No. 173 and pick up a seventh-round choice (No. 227) for doing so.
Weaver was productive as a pass rusher throughout his career, recording at least 9.5 sacks in each of his three college seasons and twice ending seasons with double-digit sacks. Weaver registered 11 as a freshman and 13.5 as a junior in 2019 and bypassed his senior season to enter the draft.
Scouts Inc. graded Weaver as a third-round talent. The Dolphins have now drafted three defensive linemen and signed two defensive ends in free agency. Weaver will attempt to carve out a role on a team that now employs Shaq Lawson and Emmanuel Ogbah. The Dolphins also have former first-rounders Charles Harris and Taco Charlton.
