While other teams in the NFC East had specific needs heading into the 2021 NFL Draft, the Philadelphia Eagles’ needs were all over the board. After finishing in last place in the division last season with a 4-11-1 record, Philly has looked less and less like the team that won a Super Bowl just four years ago.
And that is in both the literal and figurative sense. Doug Pederson was released this offseason and replaced by former Indianapolis Colts offensive coordinator Nick Sirianni. Carson Wentz, who was once believed to be the team’s franchise quarterback, has moved on to Indianapolis and the Eagles have handed the reigns to Jalen Hurts.
