Micheal Clemons is a solid late-rounder and someone the Eagles can develop.

Edge rusher is always a priority position in the NFL. It’s no different with the Philadelphia Eagles. They have to feel good about things though.

Brandon Graham will be back in 2022. Philly has some young talent with Tarron Jackson and Josh Sweat. Following the signing of Haason Reddick (even though he’s listed as a linebacker on the team roster) and the re-signing of Derek Barnett, Philly looks to be serious about improving their pass rush.

They may not be done though. Experts say defensive end and wide receiver are among the positions they’ve prioritized in the coming draft, so even if they draft a defensive end early in the selection meeting, don’t be shocked if they double-dip and add another one later.

Simulation 2: Zamir White (Georgia running back)

In our second simulation, Zamir White wound up being the Eagles’ choice at 162. We’ll cover him more in detail in the next slide.

Simulation 3: Chasen Hines (LSU guard)

Nothing says ‘solid pick’ like adding depth along the interior of the offensive line in Round 5. Chasen Hines is a solid choice at 162. He may go higher, but he falls to Day 3 in this simulator.

If that’s how things worked out on Saturday, Philadelphia would be very happy. He could stand to improve as a pass protector, but he’s a nice bang for buck product that’s worth some discussion.
