Just prior to Thursday afternoon's practice, the Eagles agreed to terms with seventh-round draft pick linebacker Greg Lloyd on a four-year contract.

The 6-1, 247-pound Lloyd started 23 games at middle linebacker for the UConn Huskies. He amassed 177 tackles, 3.0 sacks and an interception as he earned second-team All-Big East honors following the 2009 season.

The Eagles have all of their draft picks in the fold except for first-round pick Danny Watkins. Expected to start at right guard, Watkins' spot was taken by Mike McGlynn in Thursday afternoon's practice.
