There is no doubt the Philadelphia Eagles will come away from the 2017 NFL Draft with at least one cornerback. Washington corner Kevin King is one of the guys they showed a lot of interest in.

The Eagles hosted King for a visit. He returned to Philadelphia for draft week. King reflected on his meeting with defensive backs coach Cory Undlin.

“He was a really personable guy, ” King said before doing community service at the Shriners Children’s Hospital in Philadelphia.” A lot of energy. It was a short talk about football but we talked for about an hour and an half about life.”

Undlin is known for his ability to establish relationships with players. His hands on approach and his energy is infectious.

King is a likely first-round pick that should be available when the Eagles are on the clock with the No. 14 pick. His length and athleticism places him among the best in this year’s draft class.

Analyzing a player doesn’t stop at what he does on the field. The draft process is like speed dating.

Teams try to get to know prospects as much as they can in a short time period. That’s exactly what Philadelphia tried to do when they met with King.

“We went out to dinner,” King said with a smile. “He brought his Surface laptop trying to pick my brain on football but he didn’t even take it out. We talked about life, he talked about his kids. I talked about my family.”
