12. Philadelphia Eagles, Jalen Hurts

RB: Miles Sanders, Kenneth Gainwell, Boston Scott
WR: AJ Brown, Zach Pascal
WR: DeVonta Smith, Jalen Reagor
WR: Quez Watkins
TE: Dallas Goedert

The Philadelphia Eagles went from being somewhere in the 20-15 range of this list all the way up into contention for the top 10 with one move in the 2022 NFL Draft.

I absolutely loved the trade general manager Howie Roseman made to go and get AJ Brown, one of the best receivers in the league, especially after the catch.

Pick no. 18 overall and a compensatory third-round pick for Brown?

It may have been the biggest heist of the 2022 NFL Draft, and there were plenty of other contenders.

Adding Brown along with stellar rookie and former Heisman winner DeVonta Smith will drastically improve the Eagles’ offense, not just because of how dynamic those two are but because of the opportunities that will open up for Dallas Goedert.

At running back, I love the Eagles’ group including Miles Sanders and Kenneth Gainwell.

Gainwell and Boston Scott each had 100 touches and combined for 13 touchdowns last season and Sanders, shockingly, didn’t score a single time.

The Eagles didn’t have a single player last year with 1,000 yards from scrimmage. I think they’ve got the potential to have four — at least — in 2022.
