The Eagles first round draft choice in 2006, and 14th selection overall, Brodrick Bunkley is a strong and imposing presence at the defensive tackle position. Bunkley tallied 75 tackles and 3 sacks in his first year as a starter in 2007, and was a big reason why the Eagles run defense improved to 7th in the NFL (from 26th in 2006), holding their opponents to an average of just 95.8 rushing yards per game.

2007 HIGHLIGHTS:

• Sacked QB Tony Romo in a win at Dal. (12/16)
• Recovered a fumble on the Redskins 10-yd. line in the 4th qtr. at Was. (11/11). The turnover led to a TD to put the team up 33-25 with 2:18 remaining
• Recorded the first 2 sacks of his career (QB Jon Kitna) vs. Det. (9/23)
• Made his first career start and registered a career-high 7 tackles at GB (9/9)

2006 HIGHLIGHTS:

• Played in 15 games as a rookie in 2006 as a reserve 
• Was drafted by the Eagles as the 14th selection overall in the 2006 draft
