Eagles Draft: Trade Targets & Future Capital

0:00On April 22nd, the NFL draft kicks off Thursday night with a first round, and Eagles fans are buzzing as how he roseman gears up for that pick-around. Number 17 or 18, no more endless mocks, just real selections after months of scouting grind. This mailbag captures the hype, diving into trade targets and roster fits. Fans are eyeing edge rushers like Alex Heismith from Pittsburgh or Jonathan Greenard to boost Vic Fangio's defense. Both have two years left on deals, but Greenard might cost a third round pick while Heismith could go cheaper. Greenard edges out as the top choice if a deal happens. Eagle supporters see this draft as deep at Y receiver, so no rush for a number two opposite Devonta Smith. Kenyans to Deek stands out as a versatile playmaker who could replace Dallas Gitter at long term, even if they trade AJ Brown later. They like him, but will he fall into range? Expect roseman to wheel and deal, maybe trade up for guys like Jordan Tyson, Sadeek, or Safety Dylan Thiantiman if they slide.

1:01Otherwise, trading down makes sense with the first round drop-off, stacking more picks now or for later. Looking ahead, 2027's class towers over the week 2026, one, loaded with top wide receivers like Cam Coleman and Elite, Lyman plus pass rushers. Eagles are smart to angle for that future capital while nailing this draft. Stay locked in with NFL News today, AI-powered updates, I'm Corey with The Story.
