The Philadelphia Eagles have acquired the 8th overall pick in the 2016 NFL Draft from the Miami Dolphins in exchange for linebacker Kiko Alonso, cornerback Byron Maxwell, and the 13th overall pick in 2016.
Selected in the sixth round (173rd overall) of the 2011 NFL Draft, Maxwell joined the Eagles during the 2015 offseason after spending the first four years of his career with the Seattle Seahawks. In Philadelphia, the corner (6-1, 207) started all 14 games he played and finished the season with a career-high 51 tackles. Maxwell also notched two interceptions on the year, tied for second most on the team.
