2024 PHILADELPHIA EAGLES DRAFT

The PHILADELPHIA EAGLES  2024 Draft Recap

Team Needs: 

CB, OL, WR, LB, DL

 

Summary: 

The Eagles benefited from the early run on the offensive players to start off the draft. They didn't have to use any of their draft capital to move up to get their guy in Quinyon Mitchell in the first-round. What's more surprising is that their second choice (Cooper DeJean) was still available for them in the second round as well!
 
They continued to add quality players and the only questionable reach would be their third-round selection of Jaylx Hunt. In a draft where we saw several son's of fathers who played in the NFL being drafted. It was great to see that Jeremiah Trotter Jr. is following in his fathers footsteps and starting his career in the "City of Brotherly Love" too!
