Eagles Big Board for the 2026 NFL Draft
The 2026 NFL Draft is here and I’ve spent the last several months tracking all of the reported meetings that the Philadelphia Eagles have had with prospects during the pre-draft process. My tracker exceeded over 170 prospects and includes several projected first-round picks and plenty of likely undrafted free agents. Yet the mystery and uncertainty of the NFL Draft is truly what makes it so special.
While we won’t ever know what Philadelphia’s actual draft board will look like, I figured that it was time to compile all of these reported meetings into a big board. But wait…there’s more! I also ranked all of the prospects based on their projected round, according to the 2026 Consensus Big Board created by the NFL Mock Draft Database.
Offense
After spending several high draft picks on the defensive side of the ball in recent years, it’s become clear that the Eagles are planning to address their offense early in the 2026 NFL Draft. Philadelphia reportedly met with nine projected first-round picks during the pre-draft process, headlined by Georgia offensive tackle Monroe Freeling, who is ranked 14th overall on NFL Mock Draft Database’s 2026 Consensus Big Board.
Defense
While the Eagles primarily met with projected first-round picks on offense, they did meet with two prospects that have first-round potential. Toledo safety Emmanuel McNeil-Warren and Clemson edge rusher T.J. Parker both landed in the 20s on NFL Mock Draft Database’s 2026 Consensus Big Board. Although it’s worth noting that UCF edge rusher Malachi Lawrence has received a ton of first-round buzz in recent days.
Special Teams
The Eagles restructured Jake Elliott’s contract and signed Braden Mann to an extension so it’s unlikely that we’ll see Philadelphia spend a draft pick on either position. But given how many kickers the Eagles have met with, I wonder if they would bring in some potential “competition” for Elliott during training camp. It’s also worth mentioning that Philadelphia doesn’t have a long snapper under contract.
