Eagles 2021 draft: Trade up, trade back, or stay put at pick No. 12?

by Jimmy Kempski

The Philadelphia Eagles tend to move around in the first round more than most teams. In fact, as you're all well aware, they already have this year. They traded the No. 6 overall pick in this draft for the No. 12 overall pick, plus a first-round pick in 2022. Now that they're sitting at pick No. 12, could they move again?

Podcast: We draft the Eagles' most likely options with their first round pick

by Jimmy Kempski

Last year around this time, Brandon Gowton and I held a draft in which we selected the players we thought the Eagles were most likely to take in the first round. I took Justin Jefferson with the No. 1 overall pick. I lost. Brandon took Jalen Reagor with the second overall pick. He won. And we all lost. See who we selected as our most likely Eagles to be picked in Round 1 this year in the latest episode of BGN Radio.

Eagles agree to terms with former Vikings LB Eric Wilson

by Jimmy Kempski

New Eagles defensive coordinator Jonathan Gannon is a Mike Zimmer disciple, which means that there's a decent bet that Eagles linebackers are going to get more opportunities as blitzers. There's also speculation that Gannon will run a lot of Cover-2, which means that those linebackers better also be able to play zone coverage. Wilson filled up the stat sheet in both areas last season, as he had 3 INTs, 8 pass breakups, 3 sacks, and 9 QB hits.

Eagles player review: Arryn Siposs edition

by Jimmy Kempski

During the offseason, we'll be taking a look at a handful of players who are either new to the Philadelphia Eagles, or are already with the team but we perhaps don't know a lot about them just yet. Because it's Easter and many of you won't be reading today anyway, we'll look at the punter the Eagles signed to a futures contract a few months ago, Arryn Siposs.

NFC East 2021 free agency grades: Philadelphia Eagles edition

by Jimmy Kempski

The Philadelphia Eagles signed a couple of safeties, they added a veteran backup QB on a strange deal, and they'll probably still add a Band-Aid corner, or maybe a linebacker. Whatever. This free agency period wasn't about all of that. It was more about facing the music after a three straight years of front office mismanagement.
