Over the next month, we'll be tracking the Eagles' 30 allotted pre-draft private visits to the JeffPlex, as they are pretty good indicators of who the team might select.
As reports of visits trickle in, we'll add analysis of each player, perhaps each weekend. Bookmark đ, please. The most recent prospects to visit at the top, and a h/t to Dave Zangaro of NBC Philly, whose list is serving as a valuable cross-check.
By position:
⢠OT: 6
⢠TE: 4
⢠WR: 3
⢠iOL: 3
⢠EDGE: 3
⢠S: 2
Faulk had a breakout season for Auburn as a sophomore in 2024, with 45 tackles (11 for loss) and 7 sacks. He is a very good run defender, with great length at 6'6, 276, and a tough, physical play style. He is a power rusher from the edge, who can also slide inside on obvious passing downs.Â
The Eagles have a pair of smaller speed guys in Nolan Smith and Jalyx Hunt. They could use a bigger edge with some iDL versatility to give Vic Fangio opportunities for different looks along the D-line.
If the Eagles were to select a defensive player with their first-round pick, Faulk would probably be the player who makes the most sense based on his profile and where the Eagles are picking.

Proctor is a mammoth offensive tackle, but he is also a pretty ridiculous athlete for a man his size. He came in at No. 2 on Bruce Feldman's "Freaks" list this summer.
The 6-7, 366-pound Proctorâs body has 274 pounds of lean muscle mass with 26 percent body fat. His strength numbers are awesome. This summer, he squatted 815 pounds, benched 535 and power cleaned 405.
Honestly, I was even more blown away when I found out he vertical jumped 32 inches and broad jumped 9-3. Heâs 366 pounds! That 32-inch vertical is as much or more than five of the wideouts who were at this yearâs combine. Itâs the same as Coloradoâs LaJohntay Wester, and he weighed 203 pounds less.
In his first season at Alabama, Proctor started at left tackle and was selected to the All-SEC Freshman Team by the conference coaches. He had his highest-graded performance of the season against Georgia and its top-ranked defense. Last year against Georgia, Proctor earned a 90 percent grade with five knockdown blocks as the Tide didnât allow a sack all night, per Pro Football Focus. Against South Carolinaâs ferocious D-line, Proctor did not allow a sack, pressure or quarterback hit in 63 snaps and posted five knockdowns.
Proctor has started at LT since 2023. He would be a great candidate to be an eventual Lane Johnson replacement at RT, assuming he could flip to that side of the line. He also could maybe be a replacement at guard for Landon Dickerson đ¤ˇââď¸, if Dickerson's body doesn't allow him to play into his 30's.
Cut-up of some blocks here:
Also, Alabama threw a bubble screen to him:
He actually looked pretty good as a ball carrier!
The Eagles look for offensive linemen who have some kind of "wow" trait, and certainly Proctor has plenty of those, even if he needs some refinement.

Sharp played collegiately at Southeastern Louisiana, Oklahoma, and LSU. 42-324-2 at Oklahoma in 2024, 24-252-2 at LSU in 2025. He's more known for his blocking ability, via Cole Cubelic:

Sadiq is the only tight end likely to be drafted in the first round. He is an outstanding athlete who lit up the NFL Combine:Â
Sadiq's athleticism on the field is obvious, as shown on this TD against Penn State:Â
Sadiq will have to get more comfortable running the full NFL route tree, but the upside as a receiver is there, and as the Inquirer's Devin Jackson shows below, he's going to keep improving as a run blocker.Â
Fun player! But also, he makes a lot of sense as a short-term TE2 / WR to join DeVonta Smith, Dallas Goedert, Dontayvion Wicks, and Marquise Brown, especially if the Eagles trade A.J. Brown. Long-term, he would obviously be the TE1 in 2027 and beyond. But, do the Eagles value the tight end position enough to take one in Round 1?

Bisontis was originally a RT who moved to LG. He is athletic brawler with a mean streak.
Some mock drafts have Bisontis sneaking into the first round, but he's more likely a Round 2 guy. He is a clear Landon Dickerson or Tyler Steen replacement candidate.
Report: Ian Rapoport
Stribling has good size at 6'2, 207, and he ran a 4.36 40 at the Combine. He played two seasons at Washington State, two at Oklahoma State, and a fifth season at Ole Miss. 52-882-6 in 2024, 55-881-6 in 2025.
I thought this blurb in Dane Brugler's scouting report of Stribling was funny (emphasis mine):
With his tall, muscular frame, Stribling quickly accelerates to his top speed and has quickness out of route breaks, even if he didnât put the most versatile route inventory on film (hitches and go routes accounted for 57 percent of his route frequency in 2025). He has dependable hands (1.9 percent drop rate in 2025) and plays strong to the football, but needs to do a better job with his positioning downfield to finish tight-window throws. His smarts and willingness to do the dirty work are coach-pleasing qualities.
Hitches and go routes? Nick Sirianni is going to lobby Howie Roseman to trade up to pick No. 1 to go get him.

Lomu is a technically advanced pass protector with quick feet and good athleticism who could be available at the end of Round 1. Video via @NFL_DF:Â
The Eagles could be looking for a successor to Lane Johnson, however, because Lomu has only played LT for Utah, they would have to feel comfortable that he could make the move to the right side.
Projected round: 1
Report: Lomu's Instagram account (h/t Anthony DiBona) (4/8)
Bowry has experience playing LT and RT (a lot more at LT), but he is short with short arms, so he's probably going to move inside in the pros. Really good athlete:
I missed profiling Bowry during the season, but he very much feels like the Eagles' jam.
Projected round: 3/4
Report: Mike Reiss (4/7)
World possesses quick feet, and has some moments as a finisher. Oregon listed him at 6'8, but it turns out he's only 6'5 1/2. A highlight reel, via Devin Jackson of the Inquirer (World is the LT):Â
World played RT and LT at Nevada, which makes him a swing tackle prospect short-term, and an eventual replacement for Lane Johnson long-term.
He was getting some first-round buzz before the 2025 season, but is now pretty unanimously thought of as a Day 3 pick. In that sense, he reminds me a little of Cameron Williams, who the Eagles selected in the sixth round of the 2025 draft.
Projected round: Day 3
Report: Field Yates (4/7)
Stukes is a long and lean (6'1, 190) safety prospect who ran a 4.33 40 at the Combine.
Stukes is an older prospect, as he played six seasons at Arizona. He did have a productive 2025 season, making 52 tackles, with 4 INTs.
Projected round: Day 3
Report:Â Ian Rapoport (4/6)
The Eagles have traditionally leaned heavily toward drafting tight ends with receiving ability, but they signaled this offseason that they their preferences may have to change. Boerkircher is a blocking tight end with next to no college production as a receiver, averaging fewer than 100 receiving yards per season.
Projected round: Day 3
Report: Tony Pauline (3/27)Â
Iheanachor is an offensive tackle originally from Nigeria who started playing football in 2021. He is very gifted athletically, and has a chance to develop into a great pass protector. Here he is working against a potential top 5 pick in David Bailey (via @CFCBears):Â
The Eagles like taking fliers on guys who haven't played much football but have athletic upside, successfully at times (Jordan Mailata), and not so much other times (Davion Taylor).
Projected round: 1/2
Report: Brad Denny, via Iheanachor himself (3/27)
Bell is a mammoth offensive tackle at 6'9, 346, with massive 36 3/8" arms. He's not a guy opposing edge rushers are going to be able to run through, but Bell will probably always struggle with speed guys at his height and weight.
The Eagles have traditionally had interest in massive linemen, but there was some thought that their preferences might change with their new offensive scheme. Bringing in Bell and Travis Burke (below) for visits perhaps go against the idea that they won't stray too far from what they like.
Projected round: Day 3
Report: Arye Pulli (3/26)
Burke played one season at Memphis, and he was their starting RT, after stops at a pair of smaller schools (FIU and Gardner-Webb). Like Markel Bell (above), the knock on him is that he'll likely struggle with the NFL's speedier edge rushers.
Projected round: Day 3
Report: Justin Melo (3/25)
Bell had a breakout season for Louisville, as he had 72 catches for 917 yards and six TDs in 11 games. He was the best player on the field when Louisville knocked off a Miami team that made it to the National Championship Game:Â
At 6'2, 220, Bell has similar dimensions as A.J. Brown, and he plays like him too. Like Brown, Bell is a YAC beast, and he might even be a little faster.
Unfortunately, Bell suffered a torn ACL in November, ending his season. If he hadn't, he might have been a first-round pick. The Eagles have a history of taking injured players in the second round, successfully with guys like Cooper DeJean and Landon Dickerson, less so with Sidney Jones.
The ACL tear was reportedly "clean," so Bell will have a chance to be ready for the start of the 2026 season.
Projected round: 2
Report: Jody Demling, via Bell himself (3/24)
Height played six college seasons, at four (!) different schools (Auburn, USC, Georgia Tech, and Texas Tech). Even in an NIL world where transferring is becoming common, that's pretty nuts. He had his best season at Texas Tech in 2025, collecting 38 tackles, 10 sacks, and 2 forced fumbles.
Height is not going to be a three-down player, at least early in his career. He's a very small speed guy who will have a chance to contribute as a situational edge rusher.
Projected round: 4
Report: Ryan Fowler (3/23)
Dennis-Sutton was a five-star recruit (28th nationally by 247 Sports, 7th by Rivals.com) who is an exceptional run defender, but not the pass rusher that former teammate Abdul Carter was.
In 2024, he had 42 tackles (13 for loss), 8.5 sacks, 2 forced fumbles, and 3 batted passes. He followed that up in 2025 with a very similar season, collecting 42 tackles (12 for loss) 8.5 sacks again, 3 forced fumbles, and 3 batted passes.
He has upside as a power rusher at the next level. Highlights:
He also had a surprisingly great Combine showing:Â
Vic Fangio tends to like edge defenders who play the run well so that he can play lighter fronts. With Jaelan Phillips leaving in free agency, the Eagles can use another early down run stopper on the edge, with some room to grow as a pass rusher.
Projected round: 2/3
Report: Johnny McGonigal (3/18)
Kilgore is a big safety at 6'1, 210 with nearly 33" arms who ran a 4.40 40 at the Combine. He certainly looks the part of an NFL safety.
Kilgore is also capable of making plays, as he had 7 INTs his last two seasons. A taste, via @Graham_SFN:Â
In South Carolina's defense, he played something of a "Star" role, which is sort of a safety / slot corner / linebacker hybrid. The Eagles can use a safety who can mix it up in the box, so they can allow the much smaller Andrew Mukuba to focus on coverage assignments.
Projected round: 3/4
Report: Ryan Fowler (3/18)
Ioane is a guard prospect who has experience at LG and RG, with some sparse snaps at LT, RT, and C. He plays under control with good technique, but will also bury defenders into the turf when the opportunity arises. He understands angles in the run game, and he's a brick wall in pass pro. Great player.
The Eagles have an interesting situation at guard. Landon Dickerson is a good player when healthy, but he has a history of serious injuries dating back to high school and college, and his body has taken an absolute pounding in the last two seasons.
When we talk about the Eagles selecting an offensive lineman to eventually replace a great player already in place, it's always Lane Johnson, which makes sense, seeing as he'll turn 36 in May. But if you were to ask me which player is more likely to retire after the 2026 season, I might actually lean toward Dickerson.Â
Meanwhile, RG Tyler Steen was fine in his first season as a starter, but he is only under contract through 2026, and he's probably not above earning a starting job again in training camp, at least if the Eagles don't sign him to a contract extension before then.
Projected round: 1
Report: Ryan Fowler (3/18)
Cooper made one of the plays of the college football season when he helped preserve Indiana's undefeated season with this spectacular catch that gave the Hoosiers a late lead over Penn State:
Cooper also had a productive season overall, making 69 catches for 937 yards (13.6 YPC) and 13 TDs. He also had 3 carries for 74 yards and a TD. In 2024 he led the Big 10 with 21.2 yards per catch on 28 receptions. Some highlights:
Cooper is built a little bit like a running back, and he can break tackles after the catch. He's not a burner, but he does a nice job of tracking balls in the air on go routes and on back shoulder fades. He has secure hands, and versatility to line up outside or in the slot, and he competes his ass off as a blocker.
Projected round: 1
