2013 NFL mock draft: Philadelphia Eagles select...

With the 4th pick in the NFL Draft the Eagles take Dee Milliner, cornerback, Alabama.

Coming from 'Bama, Milliner will help in the Eagles very weak secondary, and with the NFL being so pass oriented, the Eagles cannot take a chance on not being ready defensively.

Milliner is an excellent corner with a nastiness towards run defense. He has excellent ball skills, blanket type coverage skills and rarely allows separation. He is excellent at bump and run coverage and has excellent ball skills, slapping a lot of passes away. Milliner at 6'0, 200 pounds, fast, not a big gambler, reads plays quickly and is rarely fooled.

After watching every Alabama game this year you can be assured that even though he is coming out as a junior with room to grow, he will be a great addition to the Eagles secondary for years to come. And after playing two years behind the likes of Dre Kirkpatrick and DeQuan Menzie who are now in the NFL, he looks to be the next in a long line of DBs from the factory in Tuscaloosa.
