Eagles' Kenyon Sadiq Draft Buzz Heats Up

0:00It's April 22nd. Welcome in. This is NFL News Today, where the league meets AI. I'm Cori with the story. The Philadelphia Eagles keep getting tied to Kenyan Sadiq that stand out tight end for Morgan as a prime target in the 2026 NFL Draft. ESPN analytics just bumped him into their top 15 most likely picks for Philly at the 23rd spot overall. Eagles wire even called tight end the position they're eyeing most when they hit the board in round 1. Buzz picked up from an Oregon Ducks insider who listed the Eagles as one of the top five landing spots for the second team All-American. And last year's big 10 tied end of the year. Lines have been drawn between Sadiq and Philly for months now, especially if he slides past the expected top 15 or 20 range. Fans and analysts see the fit clear as day. Sadiq would pair perfectly with Dallas Goatert, giving Jalen Hertz another red zone weapon after the Eagles. He'll short against the 49ers in last season's wildcard.

1:00Philly's tight end room looks stacked on paper but lacks long term death and the birds have never shied from grabbing skill players who create mismatches. Recent Moxah reports highlight how the Eagles prioritized best player available no matter the need, which keeps this Sadiq talk alive and kicking. That said, some wonder if they'll pivot to offensive tackle earlier to protect Hertz. Bottom line, what once seemed like a long shot, now feels very much in playkeep, watching his draft season heats up.
