Philadelphia Eagles: 5 Targets in first round of 2019 NFL Draft
By Jeremy Klump
Owners of the 25th overall pick in the 2019 NFL Draft, who could the Philadelphia Eagles target in the first round on Thursday night?
We are a day away from the 2019 NFL Draft and everyone wants to know who the Philadelphia Eagles will draft in the first round. Honestly, no one truly knows, mainly because there are 24 other picks that will happen before the Eagles select, not even mentioning that the Eagles could trade up or down, which would drastically change who they could select.
I believe they will trade down, and in my final seven-round mock draft for the Eagles, I have them doing just that.
However, if they stay at No. 25, there are a few players that make a ton of sense. There are also three players they should avoid in the first round. The Eagles are in a great spot heading into the draft, as they do not have many holes and look like a Super Bowl contender, even before they add an impact player with the 25th-overall pick.
Executive Vice President of Football Operations, Howie Roseman, has done a fantastic job building the roster back up, after building a championship roster for the 2017 NFL season. If Roseman is able to have a great 2019 NFL Draft, the Eagles will be a team that stays in the Super Bowl discussion all season.
That all starts with the first round, at pick 25. Here are five targets for the Eagles in the first round of the 2019 NFL Draft.
