The Philadelphia Eagles are just days away from the 2024 NFL Draft with hopes of acquiring talent that will develop into cornerstone pieces of the franchise.
While trade scenarios always are in play, Eagles general manager Howie Roseman will have the No. 22 overall pick and reportedly has a clear target in mind, at least from a positional standpoint.
The position I’ve heard most consistently assigned to the Eagles is offensive tackle,” Sports Illustrated’s Albert Breer reported Monday. “It might seem a little strange, given the team’s needs on defense (and in the secondary in particular), but GM Howie Roseman’s always prioritized the lines and worked to get ahead of potential holes, so finding the eventual replacement for Lane Johnson — who’s entering his 12th year — is in play. With the group of tackles in this year’s class so highly regarded, though, it’s unclear whether the right one for Philly makes it to 22.”
