1. Kyle Van Noy

Isn’t it crazy to think how linebacker always seems to be a top need for the Eagles around this time each season?

Between free agency and the draft, Philadelphia should be able to add a few playmakers at the position, and even though the chances of landing a star like Kyle Van Noy seem like a long shot at the moment, anything is possible when it comes to the offseason.

If the Eagles were to target some of the potential free agents on the Patriots, the case can be made that Van Noy deserves to be on top of the list since he’s made quite the impact over the last four years, and is coming off a career season.

Once again, there’s a good chance that Van Noy is another player New England will do everything in their power to re-sign at the right price, but if he does explore other options, Philadelphia needs to seriously take this possibility into consideration.

Van Noy’s leadership and experience from over the years could help the Eagles’ defense take things to new levels for the 2020 season while helping the team improve their situation at linebacker in the process.

Sure, a move like this could result in Philadelphia spending more money than they prefer, but but if Van Noy were to live up to the hype, this should seem like a no brainer for the Eagles.
