2026 NFL Team Draft Page

2025 Draft Grade: A

Concerns over shoulder surgery following the combine allowed LB Jihaad Campbell to slip down draft board all the way to pick 31 where the Eagles swapped up one spot to makes sure they could grab, the former Alabama standout. Campbell is a fantastic fit for Defensive Coordinator Vic Fangio, and could bring stability to a sometimes shaky LB group. Philadelphia's lone pick on day 2 felt like a direct response to the trade that saw them part ways with DB CJ Gardner-Johnson. Like CJGJ, S Andrew Mukuba has some versatility with where he can be aligned and could play a similar role in the defense as a playmaker. The Eagles continue to build their young secondary.

Philadelphia made 8 day 3 selections lead by DT Ty Robinson. While Robinson shouldn't be seen as a 1 to 1 replacement for Milton Williams, he does reinforce a formidable DT rotation. CB MacMcWilliams adds depth at Nickel, and it wouldn't be an Eagles draft without at least one Georgia Bulldog, LB Smael Mondon is an underrated depth addition. The QB factory found it's newest inventory with RD 6 pick Kyle McCord, who will compete for the QB3 job. The Eagles also added three new initiates to the Jeff Stoutland Offensive Line Academy, the most intriguing of which might be Cameron Williams, the raw RT out of Texas could be the perfect project to mold into Lane Johnson's successor. Myles Hinton will be looking to replace Fred Johnson's swing Tackle role and Drew Kendall brings depth to the Interior OL. Rounding out the class is EDGE Antwaun Powell-Ryland, who slips through the cracks of a deep draft class, and could make an impact as a rotational pass rusher.

Looking ahead to the 2026 draft, the biggest potential need could be at TE. Not only is current starter and subject of offseason trade rumors, Dallas Goedert entering the final year of his contract, but so is incumbent TE Grant Calcaterra. Add to that the one-year contracts for free agent additions Kyle Granson, Harrison Bryant and Cameron Latu, and you have plenty of options, but no settled solution beyond this season.
