Over the last six weeks, Howie Roseman has made the moves of a general manager who knows that his job is safe. The Philadelphia Eagles have traded Dordan Davis and Cam Jurgens away, receiving significant draft capital in each deal. Roseman now has a war chest of picks with which to rebuild this roster.
Outside of a few select star players and Roseman himself, nobody's job is safe. Nick Sirianni and Jalen Hurts could both be seeking employment elsewhere in the spring.
With a rebuild looming, let's take a look at what the Eagles could do with their newfound draft capital. If Roseman can play his cards right, he may be able to accelerate this turnaround.
For the purposes of this mock draft, let's assume that Hurts is still the QB, not because his recent play has solidified his standing, but because the upcoming class doesn't have many viable replacement options.
Philadelphia Eagles 3-round 2027 mock draft after chaotic trade deadline
Round 1, Pick 5: Zereoue Williams, Utah OT
The Eagles have built their success from the offensive line out for years. Now that Lane Johnson has retired, they'll be looking for a new anchor opposite Jordan Mailata. Third-round rookie Markel Bell has made strides since taking over as the starting right tackle, but his play so far won't keep Roseman from seeking out an upgrade.
Utah's Zereoue Williams could be the answer that Roseman is looking for. His stock has skyrocketed this season, and he's now considered one of the top players in the upcoming class. He didn't allow a single sack for the first eight games of Utah's season.
Round 1, Pick 25: KJ Duff, Rutgers WR
Philadelphia lost its physical presence outside the numbers when it traded A.J. Brown to the New England Patriots. While Sean Mannion has tried to push Jalen Hurts to throw the ball over the middle of the field more, the QB keeps coming back to his comfort zone of throwing vertical outside routes.
Instead of continuing to ask Hurts to become something he isn't, why not draft a receiver who complements him? KJ Duff is arguably the best contested-catch wideout in the class. He's 6-foot-6 and has an incredible catch radius, giving Hurts a massive target to hit on deep shots.
Round 2, Pick 36: Tae Johnson, Notre Dame S
While the Eagles might focus on their offense early in the draft, safety is still their most glaring weakness. Marcus Epps doesn't need to be a starter in Philadelphia to start the 2027 season, and Andrew Mukuba has taken a step back after a solid rookie season.
If Notre Dame's Tae Johnson falls to the Eagles at the top of the second round, Roseman shouldn't hesitate to take him. Johnson has missed most of the 2026 season with a foot injury, but he's still considered one of the top safeties in the country. He produced four interceptions and only missed two tackles last year.
Round 3, Pick 97: Will Heldt, Clemson EDGE
Roseman has had some successful draft picks over the years by betting on players whose draft stock has fallen for various reasons. He could do it again with Clemson edge rusher Will Heldt.

Heldt entered the season as a likely first-round candidate, but Clemson's struggles have taken him out of the spotlight. He's still been productive, though, with seven sacks and 32 total tackles. The Eagles don't necessarily have a glaring need on the edge, but you can never have too many capable edge rushers on your roster.
