3 Offensive tackles Philadelphia Eagles should consider in 2021’s draft
Philadelphia Eagles should consider every position with the sixth pick.
It is almost that time of year. The 2021 NFL Draft is right around the corner and the Philadelphia Eagles front office should be busy. As of late, Birds fans have had a ton to complain about as their favorite team’s roster leaves a ton to be desired.
Whether Philadelphia’s front office will admit it or not, they are in the middle of a full-scale rebuild, one that begins with trading away quarterback Carson Wentz and releasing veteran wideouts DeSean Jackson and Alshon Jeffery.
With the new league year upon us, executive vice president and general manager Howie Roseman has his hands full with the salary cap conundrum, free-agency, and the draft. Add that to a horrible 2020 season for this team, and the pressure begins to mount.
When you study the roster, there are a few players to smile about, but for the most part, the Birds need to fill a lot of holes. With that being said, Roseman and the rest of the decision-makers need to make the most out of the 2021 NFL Draft.
While there are a few ‘sexier’ positions that fans will want to see the Birds’ address with the sixth pick. It’s always a good idea for any team to protect its franchise quarterback. Here are three offensive tackles that could get the job done for Philly.
