After a Day 1 trade with the Cleveland Browns, the Eagles had two picks in the third round of the Draft.
They started by trading the 83rd pick to the Houston Texans in exchange for Houston's fourth-round pick at 101 and fifth-round pick at 141. The Texans selected DT Louis Nix III with the pick.
The Eagles then followed that up by selecting wide receiver Josh Huff with the 86th overall pick.
Huff, a 5'11", 205-pound receiver, is an Oregon product and played three years under Chip Kelly. Huff caught 144 passes in his four-year career at Oregon for 2,366 yards and 24 touchdowns. His 1,140 yards and 12 touchdowns last season were both school records.
