The Philadelphia Eagles finished up their 2014 NFL Draft class by selecting defensive lineman Beau Allen from Wisconsin. Allen is a really big player. He measures in at a whopping 6-3, 333 pounds.
I'll be honest, I can't tell you that I'm very familiar with Allen. It seems like he's the large nose tackle the Eagles wanted to add as a backup for projected starter Bennie Logan. Allen will likely compete with Damion Square for the backup nose tackle job.
