With the NFL Combine approaching, here’s a list of some of the best and worst free-agent options that the Philadelphia Eagles have at every position.

There hasn’t been a ton of fireworks whenever these league deadlines have crept up on NFL fans recently. They’ve complained about how weak some of the positions are in a few draft classes. In 2019, the trade deadline didn’t yield us any excitement, but if you’re a Philadelphia Eagles fan, it’s hard not to get a little charged up about the coming offseason.

Philly’s expected to have a little over $40 million to spend in free agency and around ten draft picks in the selection meeting when the dust settles.

The fans’ faith in this team’s ability to draft decent talent and sign quality free agents has waivered some, but from what we understand, Eagles coaches and some of the brass don’t have any plans of missing the upcoming NFL Combine.

The on-field workouts go down at the end of February. The free agency period comes after that. Sure, finding the best and worst options is as simple as plugging in the first and last names on a few power rankings for draft prospects and free agents, but let’s dig a little deeper.

Let’s examine skillsets and identify the best guys for what Philly wants to do and the guys who wouldn’t help them at all. Here’s a preliminary list of the best and worst prospects from an Eagles perspective at every position.
