The Philadelphia Eagles aren't expected to sit still during the upcoming 2026 NFL Draft. Instead, they're expected to make a move.
According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, front office executives from across the league's landscape are expecting the Eagles, led by general manager Howie Roseman, to be active in the trade market leading up to, and during, draft weekend.
As it stands currently, the Eagles have eight total picks in this year's draft, and they could potentially package some of those picks to move up in the draft or to acquire established talent from other teams.
"The Eagles could make trades beyond any Brown-related move. League sources say that general manager Howie Roseman is plotting to make a deal on draft weekend. Roseman usually has a trick or two up his sleeve, and other front office executives suspect there's one coming this week. ... Roseman almost always has a Plan A, B, C and D, and his team is one to monitor on one of the busiest weekends of the NFL calendar."
Schefter named Vikings linebacker Jonathan Greenard as one specific player that the Eagles could try to target via trade. He reports that the Eagles have checked in on Greenard over the offseason.
