Eagles Draft Stowers, Greenard, Bell

0:00It's April 25th. This is NFL News Today, powered by AI, your grid iron update. I'm Corey with the story. The Philadelphia Eagles made some bold moves in the NFL draft, snagging Vanderbilt tight in Eli Stowers at the 54th pick overall then, trading for 28-year-old Ed rusher Jonathan Greenard from the Vikings just minutes later. They wrapped up the busy night by selecting Miami Tackle Markle Bell at 68th overall. Eli Stowers turned heads at the combine with a blazing 4.5 140 yard dash and elite jumps, showing off serious speed for A, 6 foot 4 tight end. He's a seamstretching receiver who hauled in 62 catches for 769 yards and four scores last college season though. Blocking isn't his strength yet. Howey Roseman shrugged off the weaknesses, saying the team zeros in on what players do best and trust the coaches to develop unique talents like, Stowers. The Greenard deal cost the 98th pick this year and a 2027 third rounder, but he signed

1:03a 4 year, $100 million. Contract, to anchor the edge after Jalen Phillips left. This pairs with their first round receiver, Mackay Lemon, signaling a shift in the offense toward creative seam attackers around Jalen Hurts and Devonta. Smith, even without a pure deep threat to replace AJ Brown. Day 3 looks quiet with just 3 picks left, way down at 178th and 197th as Roseman counts vets like. Greenard toward the class. Marquell Bell, a massive 6 foot 9, 346 pounder, fits their unusual offensive line mold perfectly.
