The Philadelphia Eagles today announced they have agreed to terms with S C.J. Gaddis on a four-year contract. Gaddis became the third Eagle draft pick to reach an agreement on a contract, joining LB Stewart Bradley and RB Tony Hunt.

A fifth-round draft choice out of Clemson in 2007 (159th overall), Gaddis decided to enter the NFL draft after his junior season in which he recorded two interceptions, two forced fumbles, and a half sack.

In his three-year career for the Tigers, Gaddis (5-11, 206) served time at both safety positions, cornerback, and strong side linebacker, recording 117 tackles, five interceptions, and four forced fumbles. Gaddis was originally recruited to Clemson as a quarterback before shifting to defense in 2004.
