Instant analysis of the Eagles selecting LB Shaun Bradley in Round-6

The Philadelphia Eagles added another linebacker to the roster and they won’t have to worry about moving expenses after selecting Temple linebacker Shaun Bradley.

Bradley is an athletic linebacker who has been a leader for the Owls since his sophomore season, and last season in his final go-round with the Owls, he earned second-team All-American Athletic Conference honors after leading the Owls with 87 tackles, eight for loss, and three pass breakups.

Here are three takeaways from Bradley’s addition:

***

1. Bradley is active

At Temple, the Mt. Holly, New Jersey native amassed 249 tackles, 3 interceptions, and two forced fumbles over the last three seasons.

2. Special Teams ace

Bradley was likely drafted for his special team’s prowess, but his nose for the football could be impossible to keep him off the football field.

3. Bradley is undersized

An undersized linebacker, Bradley struggles to shed blockers. Bradley might not fit in the middle but could be called upon in nickel or dime scenarios.
