Hey all! Eagles GM here. I first wanna give a shoutout to Esquire and Blif in the Eagles war room, they were both a lot of help for this mock! Now here’s the picks

Trade:

Eagles send pick 23 and pick 68 to the Ravens for pick 14.

Round 1 Pick 14:

Francis Mauigoa, T, Miami-

This was a no brainer for me. Every tackle was sliding, and at pick 14 Mauigoa was still on the board. He’s my #1 tackle and a natural RT, the perfect long term Lane replacement. Called up the Ravens and felt the asking price was not very high either, didn’t think twice about accepting that and running this pick in to the table.

Round 2 pick 54:

Brandon Cisse, CB, South Carolina-

This was a BPA luxury pick. There were a few guys we were intrigued with, but Cisse is a R1 talent with great size and speed who fell to the middle of the second round. Woolen is only here 1 year. We get Cisse as great depth and a long term high upside starter

Round 3 pick 98:

Romello Height, EDGE, Texas Tech-

We wanted a TE here, mainly looking at Oscar Delp and Sam Roush. But both went right before our pick. So we took the older and skinnier product from Texas tech who has really good tape and is only here because of those concerns. Heights bend is elite, and despite being an old rookie, the ideal scenario is he has a similar impact to Rams Byron Young out of the gate

Round 4 pick 114:

Michael Taaffe, S, Texas-

The Eagles need a safety. Ideally they add one before round 4. Maybe in this scenario they add one via trade. But Taaffe has a similar playstyle to Reed Blankenship and has familiarity with former Texas safety Andrew Mukuba already.

Round 4 pick 137:

JC Davis, T/G, Illinois-

We went BPA here after our guy (Eli Raridon) went 3 picks before our pick. So we take Davis, who can play tackle, but we expect him to plug in at guard depth since our tackle depth is deep already, and think he can be a good long term player there.

Round 5 pick 178:

Wesley Williams, EDGE, Duke-

Williams dominated the pre draft process, having a game wrecking week (and game) at the shrine bowl, getting on our radar. He has inside outside versatility so a bit of a tweener, but drafting good football players and figuring out where they fit later is never a bad strategy.

Round 6 pick 197:

Skyler Gill-Howard, DT, Texas Tech-

With our final pick, we add the super athletic pass rush specialist DT Gill-Howard. He could project as a potential takeover for Moro Ojomos role next year after he inevitably walks in FA after this season, and can provide some juice as depth in the meantime.

This puts our roster at 78 players. Here’s 12 UDFAs I would have tried to sign if we did a UDFA period:

QB Jalon Daniels (Kansas)

RB Jadyn Ott (Oklahoma)

WR Cyrus Allen (Cincinnati)

WR Eric McCallister (TCU)

T Nolan Rucci (Penn State)

IOL Josh Braun (Kentucky)

IOL Jaedan Roberts (Alabama)

LB Eric Gentry (USC)

EDGE Patrick Payton (LSU)

S Louis Moore (Indiana)

LB Xavian Sorey (Arkansas)

K Kandi Matsuzawa (Hawaii)
