Eagles pick offensive lineman Seumalo in third round

The Eagles drafted their first offensive lineman since 2013 on Friday when they selected Oregon State's Isaac Seumalo with the No. 79 overall pick.

It came in the third round with the team's second pick of the draft, and it was used on a player that coach Doug Pederson believes can vie for a starting job and is versatile enough to play every spot on the offensive line.

"I think this kid can come in and compete and give us great depth at the spot," Pederson said. "I do agree he could challenge for a starting job.
