NFL Draft Rumors: Eagles “love” Kwity Paye and “it’s possible” he’s the pick at No. 12

For some, the realistic worst-case scenario for the Philadelphia Eagles’ first-round pick involves the team taking Michigan defensive end Kwity Paye at No. 12. If you’re among his skeptics, well, you’re not going to enjoy the latest rumor leading up to the 2021 NFL Draft.

Tony Pauline of Pro Football Network says the Eagles “love” Paye and it is indeed possible he’s Philly’s first-round pick.

Howie Rosman and the Eagles are known to pull a surprise or two on draft day — so who could it be this year?
