The Eagles surprised just about everyone when it was announced that they were trading Jordan Davis to the Jaguars ahead of the NFL trade deadline, but they got a huge return for their defensive tackle, including a first-round draft pick in 2027 and a second-round pick in 2029. Those two acquistions give Howie Roseman 10 total picks in the first two rounds over the next three drafts, 26 total projected through all rounds. That’s insane!
The general consensus is that the team probably isn’t done making moves ahead of the deadline, but after the deal for Davis, here are the team’s next three years worth of picks:
2027 (9): 1st, 1st, 2nd, 3rd (projected comp pick), 4th, 5th, 5th, 5th, 7th
2028 (9): 1st, 1st, 2nd, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th
2029 (8): 1st, 2nd, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th
Teams already hate to see what Howie Roseman cooks up during the draft, and with so many high picks, he’s got plenty of options for how best to position this team now, and in the future. If nothing else, Howie certainly knows how to get the most value out of his picks.
