If you’re here to read about the Eagles being interested in Jalen Ramsey, or Laremy Tunsil, then you clicked on the wrong article. You can get that low-hanging fruit somewhere else.

Look, a fair percentage of the league is interested in those guys, even the teams sitting at the back end of the draft. And a majority of that percentage would even be willing to trade up to nab them. Those players are generational talents. They’re catching the eyes of just about every scout. So of course the Eagles are “interested.”

I’m not typing this up during the wee hours of the night to have you click on something you have already read 14 times. The journey I am about to put you on will showcase five players that are a good fit for the Eagles. However, one thing to keep in mind here;  there is a pretty good chance Philly shops their eighth pick. With the current state of a few teams being QB-less, the Eagles, more importantly Howie Roseman, could work some magic and collect a few more picks. Hopefully one in the second round. Wishful thinking, but it could happen. The main thing is getting the right value with the right pick. Nobody outside of the organization has any idea who the team is going to pick. Let’s be hopeful the following players are on Philly’s big board. If not, maybe they will be now. Fingers crossed.
