The Eagles' remaining holes to fill, post-draft, and who can fill them

Each year after the draft has come and gone, the Philadelphia Eagles typically sign a veteran player or two to plug unfilled holes on their depth chart. In recent years, they have done so with an eye toward competing for a Super Bowl.

Eagles select LSU LB JaCoby Stevens with 224th pick of 2021 NFL Draft
