These five players ended up being the best draft selections the Philadelphia Eagles ever made.

The Philadelphia Eagles have been around for a long time. Originally established in 1933, they’ve made quite a lot of home run draft selections.

In the 2017 NFL Draft, the Eagles will be looking to do just that. Of course, that is much easier said than done. Drafting an eventual starter, let alone a future Hall of Famer, is hardly a guarantee. Luckily, this year’s draft is stocked with talent from start to finish. As the draft quickly approaches, the Eagles will have their hands full trying to pick the player who they feel will thrive in Philadelphia.

It’s always fun to look back upon the greatest selections in Eagles history. But these five players take the cake as the best draft selections the team has ever made.
