How does Eagles’ roster compare to others in NFC East ahead of draft?

1 week ago | nj.com | Bob Brookover

The losses appear more significant than the additions for the Eagles so far this offseason and that could be even more true if tight end Dallas Goedert is traded. It should be remembered, however, that the Eagles had arguably the best roster in the league last season and they will have another really good one in 2025, especially if some of their depth players that performed so well can handle expanded roles.

NFL Draft 2025: Eagles get defensive tackle, Dallas Goedert’s replacement in latest mock

2 weeks ago | nj.com | Bob Brookover

By now, the Eagles have laid out a good portion of their plan for the 2025 NFL Draft, but when a team has the last pick in each of the first three rounds, its general manager is at the mercy of what other teams do. Given Howie Roseman’s history, the smart money would be placed on the GM making a trade to either move up or down the draft board in the first round. That’s what he’s done in six of the last nine years. He also dealt a first-round pick in 2022 to get wide receiver A.J. Brown.

Eagles got great value by sticking with their pick a year ago. Could it happen again at pick 32?

As the draft approached a year ago, it was no secret that the Eagles needed help at cornerback and that there were some really good ones available in the first round. The issue seemed to be that general manager Howie Roseman was going to have to trade up from the No. 22 overall selection to get either Alabama’s Terrion Arnold or Toledo’s Quinyon Mitchell, the two most highly regarded cornerbacks by the majority of draft evaluators.

The message from Eagles general manager Howie Roseman at the NFL Annual Meeting was that nothing has changed regarding Dallas Goedert. Translation: The $14.25 million the team owes their star tight end for the 2025 season does not fit into their big-picture plan, which is focused on signing their younger players like Jalen Carter and Cam Jurgens to long-term extensions before they reach free agency.

Difficult for Eagles to say they’ve improved this offseason and why that’s OK

PALM BEACH, Fla. — The Eagles spent the week at the beach trying to sell sand and sea water. Nobody was buying it and, in both instances, that was OK. In fact, it was a reflection of how far this franchise has risen during Jeffrey Lurie’s 31 years of ownership. A few decades ago, long before his team had won a Super Bowl or even played in one, Lurie mentioned at the start of one training camp at Lehigh University that many other owners around the league considered his team the gold standard.
