With their first three picks in the 2017 NFL Draft, the Eagles loaded up on defense, selecting Tennessee DE Derek Barnett, Washington CB Sidney Jones, and West Virginia CB Rasul Douglas. 

On day three, the Birds have added a lot of players on offense in North Carolina WR Mack Hollins, San Diego State RB Donnel Pumphrey, and West Virginia WR Shelton Gibson, followed by Nebraska linebacker Nate Gerry.

In the sixth round, the Eagles have one pick, at 214th overall. It is the 31st pick in the sixth round. Here are my top 20 options for the Eagles in round six of the 2017 NFL Draft:

• Chad Kelly, QB, Ole Miss: Kelly has plenty of appealing tools. He has a strong arm, competitiveness, toughness, and a gunslinger mentality that Doug Pederson seems to like. He also has a litany of drawbacks. To begin, he has torn the ACL in his right knee twice, most recently in November of 2016. And then there's a whole host of off-the-field incidents. He was kicked off the team at Clemson in 2014, he was arrested in a bar fight later that year, and in 2016 he ran onto the field of his brother's high school game after his brother took a late hit. Kelly was initially invited to the Combine, and then had his invite curiously rescinded. It's worth noting that Kelly is the nephew and godson of Hall of Fame quarterback Jim Kelly, who is very close with Eagles offensive coordinator Frank Reich, so there's a loose connection there.

• Corey Clement, RB, Wisconsin: In 2016, he had a heavy workload, carrying the ball 314 times for 1375 yards and 15 TDs. When you watch him run, the obvious thing you'll notice is that he will break a lot of tackles. That is a something the Eagles won't have much of at the running back position when they release Ryan Mathews. However, he was a non-factor in the passing game, his Combine performance was bad, and he comes with character issues. He doesn't quite fit what the Eagles are looking for in a runner, but as an added back to throw on the pile, he would make sense in the late rounds.

• Elijah Hood, RB, North Carolina: Hood is a big 5'11, 232 pound back who probably only projects to the next level as a short yardage guy because of his lack of speed. Hood is also a good blocker, so perhaps he can double as an occasional fullback.

• Matthew Dayes, RB, North Carolina State: Dayes' 5.2 yards per rush average in college isn't exactly awe-inspiring, but he is a do-everything guy that NC State moved all over the formation.Over the last three seasons, Dayes has 88 receptions for 760 yards and 5 TDs, and is also thought of as a quality blocker in pass protection, thus making him a good fit for Doug Pederson's offense.

• Damore'ea Stringfellow, WR, Ole Miss: Stringfellow has some character concerns, but he makes plays down the field. As a player, while he's not a burner, Stringfellow had good size, leaping ability, and strength. He also breaks tackles after the catch. I like his fit in Pederson's offense.

• Billy Brown, TE, Shepherd: Shepherd? Where the hell is that, you might be asking? It's in West Virginia. At such a small school, as you might imagine, there isn't a whole lot of game tape of Brown. However, he's very intriguing because he played wide receiver there, and put up huge numbers. In 2016, Brown had 99 catches (led D2) for 1580 yards (second in D2) and 22 TDs (tied for second in D2). He has since bulked up a bit in preparation of playing tight end at the next level. Brown would be a player teams will take a flier on, hoping to develop him into a dynamic threat in their offense.

• Adam Bisnowaty, OT, Pittsburgh: Bisnowaty started in 43 games in his college career, all at left tackle, however, he'll likely move to right tackle in the pros. The words you'll often see to describe Bisnowaty are physical, scrappy, tough, etc. That's often a kind way of saying a guy isn't athletic, but he tries hard. In Bisnowaty's case, he has decent athleticism and he excels in the run game. Doug Pederson likes the scrappy types. When asked what he looks for in offensive linemen, Pederson once said, "Guys that are athletic who can get out on the perimeter and run, aggressive up front, have a little, as they say, 'piss and vinegar' in their neck are guys that you look for." That's Bisnowaty.

• Dan Skipper, OT, Arkansas: At Arkansas, Skipper played both at LT and RT, which could make him useful as a swing tackle. Also, at 6'10, he would have some usefulness on the field goal block team. Over his college career, Skipper had 7 blocked kicks.

• Conor McDermott, OT, UCLA: At 6'8, 307, with good athleticism, McDermott would be much higher if there wasn't the belief that he's not strong enough to play in the NFL. If the Eagles believe they can IR McDermott with a hangnail they way they did with seventh-round pick Alex McCalister last year, he could make sense as a player they stick in the weight room for a year before they have any expectation of him making the 53-man roster as an OT reserve, which they don't need at the moment, but will in a year.

• Eric Magnuson, OG/OT, Michigan: At Michigan, Magnuson was slated to be the Wolverine's left tackle, but that never happened. Instead, he started at guard and right tackle during his college career (RT in 2016), while getting reps at left tackle in practice. He is also thought to have the requisite intelligence to play center. Magnuson even played a little tight end, changing his jersey number for a short time to No. 81. He was used mainly as an extra blocker at TE, similarly to the way the Eagles used Matt Tobin and Seumalo in jumbo sets this past season. Magnuson could be a player of interest in the middle rounds who provides good depth at multiple positions, with his ceiling being a starter at RT.

• Ethan Cooper, OG, Indiana University of Pennsylvania: I'd be a liar if I said I watched one second of Cooper's games, but the Eagles brought him in for a visit, so they have some level of interest.

• Marquez White, CB, Florida State: White was very good in 2015 at his corner spot in the Seminoles' defense. That season, he allowed a grand total of just nine completions, 131 yards and no touchdowns on 28 total targets. In 2016, while he was still good, he didn't have quite as much success, as was overshadowed by sophomore Tarvarus McFadden, who led the nation with eight interceptions. White's tackling will have to improve, as CFBfilmroom.com has him down for 27 tackles and 7 missed tackles in 2016. That won't be acceptable in the pros. Still, in a Florida State secondary that has been absolutely loaded with great defensive backs, White is flying under the radar a bit, but he could be a good coverage corner at the next level. 

• Jeremy Cutrer, CB, Middle Tenneessee State: Cutrer has great length at, 6'1, with long arms. Over the last two seasons, he has six interceptions and 23 pass breakups. He has good ball skills, and does a nice job anticipating routes. However, he is extraordinarily skinny, which is understandable considering he was once homeless and has a crazy (but inspiring) backstory. He has tried to add weight at MTSU, and will likely continue to in the pros. Cutrer gets his hands on a lot of passes, but is a bit of an ankle diver as a tackler. 

• Jadar Johnson, S, Clemson: Johnson has a nose for the football, collecting five interceptions this past season for Clemson. He also says dumb stuff. For example, before the Tigers' playoff game against Ohio State, Johnson said that OSU quarterback J.T. Barrett has a weak arm. Prior to Clemson's game against Louisville, Johnson would only refer to star quarterback Lamar Jackson as "No. 8." Dumb? Confident? Potato, potahto. However you see it, defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz loves him some finger-wagging defensive backs, and Johnson could be an option in the late rounds.

• Malik Golden, S, Penn State: Like Cooper above, the Eagles brought in Golden for a pre-draft visit. In 2016, Golden had 75 tackle, 1 INT, 1 FF, and 1 FR.

• Steven Taylor, LB, Houston: Over the last three seasons, Taylor has 242 tackles, 22.5 sacks, 39.5 tackles for loss, 7 FFs, and 3 INT. However, he's only 6'1, 225, and limited athletically.

• Carroll Phillips, DE/LB, Illinois: In 2016, Phillips had 56 tackles, 9 sacks, 20 tackles for loss, and 1 forced fumble. Where he would fit with the Eagles is unclear. He could potentially be a situational pass rusher early in his career, with the idea of trying to add bulk to his thin frame, or the Eagles could view him as a SAM linebacker in their 4-3.

• Keionta Davis, DE, Tennessee-Chattanooga: In 2015, Davis had 13.5 sacks and 17 tackles for loss. In 2016, his production dipped a bit, but was still good, when he had 10.5 sacks. Davis is a bulkier DE who may interest the Eagles as a rotational defensive end. 

• Hunter Dimick, DE, Utah: On the season, Dimick was third in the nation with 14.5 sacks, including a five-sack performance against Arizona State. He also has 21 total tackles for loss and six batted passes. While his sack total is impressive, Dimick is more of a hustle type than a guy projected to put up big numbers in the pros. Still, Dimick is a good run defender from his DE spot, with a good motor.

• Tanzel Smart, DT, Tulane: At 6'1, 296, Smart doesn't have the size to be a three-down player in the NFL, but he is a disruptive, penetrating player who can fit in an attack-style defensive front like the one employed by Schwartz. In 2016, Smart had 5.5 sacks and 18.5 tackles for loss. He can be a rotational player to add to the mix.
