Howie Roseman has spent the last few weeks of the off-season filling out the Eagles roster with a number of free agent signings and trades, including yesterday’s deal for running back Jordan Howard. So with the bulk of free agency now out of the way, the off-season focus has fully pivoted to the NFL Draft.
The Eagles own seven picks this year, including pick No. 25 in the first round and two second rounders, Nos. 53 and 57. After last year, when they traded out of the first round pick and had only five picks overall, Roseman and the Eagles see these next couple drafts as an opportunity to stack the roster with some much-needed young talent.
