Hims

9 total picks. First pick #23

The Eagles' Super Bowl encore featured Jalen Hurts and company capturing a second-straight NFC East title – something that no team in the division had accomplished since the 2003-04 Eagles – but at the end of the day the team's unimaginative and ultimately mediocre offense couldn't come through when it mattered most against the 49ers.

Never fear, general manager Howie Roseman is here, and he has over $20 million in cap space and picks No. 23, 54, 68 and 98 to work with during the first two days of the 2026 NFL draft. Perhaps more high-end draft capital will be gained if the team decides to part ways with disgruntled No. 1 WR A.J. Brown.

Team Needs and Targets

Tight End: Considering Grant Calcaterra (Round 6, 2022) is the only tight end Philly has drafted since Dallas Goedert back in 2018, it's probably about time for the team to add some new blood at the position.

EDGE: Midseason addition Jaelan Phillips joins unretired Brandon Graham as free agents. This leaves the Eagles with the sixth-fewest 2026 dollars devoted to their EDGE room, although simply bringing back Phillips would make a lot of sense.

Secondary: The team has done a great job drafting early-round plus starters in the secondary in recent years. This might again be necessary should Howie Roseman and company not love the available options in free agency.
