The 2024 NFL Draft is less than one month away! We are quickly approaching silly season but the Eagles path through the draft is more clear than it has been. Here is one possible way the draft could pan out

Chop Robinson’s absurd athleticism makes him hard to resist at this point in the draft. Even if he is a project player, Philly could be a great place to develop him. Also with the way Penn State has historically used their defensive players, Robinson could actually make a quicker impact in the NFL than most think.

Cornerback remains a big need for the Eagles. Khyree Jackson has the size, athleticism, and ball skills to be an impact outside cornerback in the NFL. While the Eagles don’t have to rush Jackson onto the field with Darius Slay and James Bradberry/Kelee Ringo set to start next year, Jackson could slide into a starting role in 2025 and play at a high level.

Finding a number two back behind Saquon Barkley should be on the Eagles minds considering Kenneth Gainwell has yet to really seize on any opportunity given to him since last year’s impressive playoff run. Braelon Allen is a pure two down back right now, but he could be a great complement to Saquon considering how badly the Eagles want to use Barkley more as an offensive weapon than a true running back
