The Philadelphia Eagles have significantly bolstered their future draft capital following the trade of defensive tackle Jordan Davis to the Jacksonville Jaguars. This move, orchestrated by General Manager Howie Roseman, is part of a broader strategy that has seen the Eagles acquire premium picks in exchange for established players.
In addition to the Davis trade, which yielded a 2027 first-round pick and a 2029 second-round pick, Roseman previously traded wide receiver A.J. Brown to New England for a 2028 first-round pick and a 2027 fifth-rounder. Center Cam Jurgens was also sent to Baltimore for a 2028 second-round pick and a 2027 fifth-rounder. These transactions suggest a potential pivot toward a roster reset for the Eagles, who currently stand at 2-7.
As the NFL Trade Deadline approaches, further player movement is anticipated. Potential trade candidates include running back Saquon Barkley, tight end Dallas Goedert, and wide receiver Marquise Brown. Even if no further trades occur before the deadline, the Eagles have positioned themselves with substantial draft assets through the 2029 draft.
Following the Jordan Davis trade, the Eagles' draft capital over the next three drafts includes:
2027 NFL Draft: Round 1: Own, Jaguars (Jordan Davis trade) Round 2: Own Round 3: Projected Compensatory Pick (Jaelan Phillips free agent departure) Round 4: Own Round 5: Own, Ravens (Jurgens trade), Patriots (Brown trade) Round 6: None Round 7: Minnesota Vikings (Sam Howell trade)
