Philadelphia Eagles C/G Landon Dickerson

Howie Roseman has gone on record several times stating his philosophy on building a football team. Time and time again he cites the offensive line and defensive line as the anchors of a championship team. With All-Pros Jason Kelce and Brandon Brooks on the back end of their careers with the Eagles, Howie took Landon Dickerson in the second round of the 2021 NFL Draft.

Landon Dickerson has all the tools and talent to be a perennial all-pro for years to come if he can stay healthy. Transitioning from Jason Kelce or Brandon Brooks to Landon Dickerson, depending on what position he plays going forward, will help keep the offensive line as the strength of this team.

Dickerson will be able to spend his first few seasons with great offensive lineman and great offensive line coaching. Staying healthy is the only concern, many believed Dickerson was a top-three offensive line prospect coming out of college if it weren’t for the injuries.
