The Philadelphia Eagles have selected LSU defensive tackle Bennie Logan in the third round of the NFL draft.

Logan, 6-foot-2 and 309 pounds, was chosen Friday night with the 67th overall pick. Logan had two sacks, forced two fumbles and made 45 tackles last year.

The Eagles chose Stanford tight end Zach Ertz in the second round at No. 35 and Oklahoma offensive tackle Lane Johnson at No. 4 overall in the first round.

Logan is considered a strong rusher with good upper-body strength.
