2017 NFL Mock Draft: Deshaun Watson & Jabrill Peppers in Top 5 Picks

No. 10 Philadelphia Eagles: DE Derek Barnett

---

School: Tennessee

---

Position: Defensive End

---

Class: Junior

---

Outlook: A strong argument can be made that Barnett is the best pass rusher in the draft. He was one of the best pass rushers in the country this season with 12 sacks. In addition to 45 tackles, he had two forced fumbles and an interception. Barnett is an extreme disruptor of opposing offenses. He would give the Eagles an elite player to throw at opposing quarterbacks. In a division with Eli Manning, Dak Prescott and Kirk Cousins you can never have enough pass rushers. The Eagles showed promise early in the season but find themselves in a difficult division. A good 2017 draft could have them battling for a playoff spot next season. (Getty)
