29s ron burke with details about tonight's big selection. ron? >> reporter: iain and lucy, the eagles going with 14th pick and the future is now for the nfl and the eagles just moments ago used that pick to take a guy that really connects philadelphia to its past because it selected 14th overall derek barnett defensive lineman from tennessee here's where the past comes in. barnett is a player that at the university of tennessee all did he there was break reggie white's career sacks record that gives an indication of the numbers he put up the sec he's a player that plays extremely hard from snap to whistle and so if you are looking for a particular direction what the eagles are looking for that a player's makeup he certainly checks all the boxes as they say of player who will give you his all he was out standing in the toughest conference in the nation. don't think many people would disagree with that he comes to philadelphia off a huge career at the university of tennessee to be a part of jim schwartz's

defense and so the eagles some thought they'd go cornerback, perhaps, receiver, running back, receiver and running back were off the board they'll go dee d line. we'll hear from derek barnett later op in the news. we're excited to bring you his story coming up later on. for now let's go to chris o'connell on the parkway. >> reporter: ron, we are down the parkway from you and all of the reaction you're hearing from the eagles coming around. the war over the crowd -- roar over the crowd when the eagles made their pick here some of the reactions.

end. they liked derek barnett out of tennessee, and i think the reason that both those players were there is because the unexpected which always happens in the draft happened with corey davis going very early. john ross going earlier than lost people expected. and then ma hones the quarterback moved up to number 12. cleveland could have taken a quarterback but all these things happening got to the point and howie roseman and joe douglas will speak shortly all these things happened and i'm sure they will talk about this was in their minds the best player available. back to you, iain. >> all right. howard, thanks. all right. and did you hear how the draft got start idea started with an echo of a moment that philadelphia will never live down. >> good evening and welcome to the nfl draft. >> boo! come on philly. cull on. there you go. >> i don't even. roger goodell trying to get with the philly theme. he got booed.

down the shore much cooler. with the impact of that ocean. the ocean influence keeping it cool in the 50s but tomorrow we have a west wind that means it's a land breeze. so temperatures along the jersey shore are going to be very similar to these inland temperatures. so if you want to plan a day at the beach water is too cold but at least at the beach it will be mild. our high future cast shows patch of rain lifting toward the northeast into the poconos but then some spotty showers maybe even a rumble of thunder especially through south jersey early tomorrow morning. we'll have some morning clouds and those clouds will give way to sunshine. so the summer preview continues the jet stream well to the north for friday and saturday. then we have another front coming through and that will cool things down. but still pretty comfortable around here. tonight the low temperature 65. overnight a shower or two. especially through south jersey and delaware. during the day tomorrow we start off with the clouds you can see the blue sky some humidity out there. the high temperature 83 degrees. for the penn relays, it's going

to be a really nice stretch. tomorrow 83 with a morning sprinkle possible. and then look at saturday. feeling like summer 88 degrees a chance of late day shower or storm with front moving through. on your seven day forecast from the weather authority a great day saturday near record warmth sun day cooler but hot again on monday. tuesday 70. wednesday 72. next thursday some showers. the high 66. important to note is saturday. the record is 90 degrees. that would be the hottest day of the year so far. we're going for 88. lucy, iain, we could come really close if not touch that record on saturday. it's draft weather. what can we say? kathy this draft was as unpredictable as you can possibly get. a whole lot of trades an whole lot of surprises. but the eagles may have just come away with a steal. derek barnett is our guy and howard eskin will have reaction from the front office. that's coming up next in sports.

♪ okay. with the 14th pick in the 2017nfl draft the philadelphia eagles select derek barnet, defensive end tennessee. [ applause ] >> wow! just wow. disregard any mock draft you've ever seen no one had this.

ton of trades early in the front round with a bunch of quarterbacks going way too early resulted in this. derek is the guy fort eagles much he's a junior out of tennessee he can flat out get to the quarterback he left tennessee as the school's all-time leader in sacks. 4.8 at the combine. put on the tape. watch him. he can get aft it. high motor and he can help brandon graham get quarterbacks to the ground. howard eskin is at the novacare complex. what are the guys in the front office saying how this all went down? >> well, they like their pick, sean, and when we talked to howie roseman earlier, he talk about -- he didn't really talk about the scenarios, but nobody -- he talked bout craziness that could happen. this might have been crazy yesterday draft in the first ten to 13 picks the last five years. and that's what created the eagles opportunity to draft one of the players that they were looking at and they wanted the best player available.

and one of the things that they also like and i'm going to talk more about how this all fell out is a player with character and owe howie roseman talked about that tonight on the 5:00 o'clock news. let's listen to hoe wee roseman. >> he stands for what we want to be and i think everyone in the city will see what kind of person he is, what kind of player he is, unbelievably high character. unbelievable worker, and tremendously talented and productive. >> he fits exactly what we're trying to build here want we started last year and being a quarterback and being a former quarterback in this league, any time you can acquire a pass rush schers to get after the quarterback with the guys we have and just mix him in there now, makes us better. >> all right. character is important but here's why this all fell out. three wide receivers were taken in the top nine picks. corey davis is the player i think they also really like. he went five. then mike williams they didn't really like went seven. then john ross who they were looking at went nine. and what also mater this

possible for the eagles three quarterbacks were taken in the top 13 picks and that's why derek barnett fell to them one of the guys we mentioned earlier fell to them at 14 and they really like the the pick. back to you, sean. >> howard, scenario no one really thought of. thank you, howard. my guy who's san reddick has a new home he was draft the to the arizona cardinal as the 13th overall pick. congrats to the temple grad and the camden native. arizona might have just gotten themselves a star. shout out to haason. >> absolute his life just changed. good for him. we appreciate it. >> lucy what's coming up at 11:00. >> throwing punches in church don't usually go together, right? but at one local church that's the goal. they're training kids how to fight in the ring while also preaching peace. our bill anderson has the story for goodness sake and of course we've got your wake up weather and seven day forecast. we've got a whole lot ahead. it's all in the first five minutes. ♪
