And now that I've sucked you in with promises of many power rankings, you'll read it and like it. Here's where people around the country have the Eagles ranked after the 2020 NFL Draft.

NFC Hierarchy/Obituary: Post-draft edition

by Jimmy Kempski

For those of you who are new here, we do a "Hierarchy/Obituary" post every week during the season, in which we kill off teams that have reached the point where they have almost no chance to make the playoffs. We then write their obituary and never speak of them in the Hierarchy again. Anyway, it's my hackneyed sell-out spin on the more traditional "power rankings." Got it? Cool. Let's do a post-draft edition.

A too-early look at what positions are strong in the 2021 NFL Draft

by Jimmy Kempski

The 2021 NFL Draft is more than 11 months away, and a lot can/will change between now and then, as prospects will rise and fall. Still, you can typically get a feel for which positions will be strong in the next year's draft. For example, it was clear at this time last year that the 2020 NFL Draft was going to be loaded at wide receiver, and sure enough, 8 got selected in the first 34 picks.

Game-by-game Eagles 2020 win-loss predictions

by Jimmy Kempski

Is it a semi-pointless exercise to predict each regular season game's outcome as early as May, a day after the schedule was released? Yes, yes it is. Because I'm a hack sellout, let's just go ahead and do it anyway.

Podcast: Are the Eagles good?

by Jimmy Kempski

After each of us released our "way too early 53-man roster projections" earlier this week, Brandon Gowton and I analyzed the Eagles' roster, position by position, asking, "Are the Eagles good or bad?"

Philadelphia Eagles 2020 schedule

by Jimmy Kempski

In the midst of one of the worst pandemics in the history of the planet Earth, the NFL released the 2020 schedule for all 32 teams. Woohoo! To be determined if the 2020 NFL season will actually, you know, happen, but whatever.

Where are the Eagles deep, and not so deep, after the 2020 NFL Draft: Defense edition

by Jimmy Kempski

While the Philadelphia Eagles could still add a veteran here or there to their roster before the start of the season, it is still probably somewhere around 90-to-95 percent set. Here we'll take a look at each of their positions, and determine where they are strong, and where they still need help. On Wednesday we started with the offense. Today we'll look at the defense.
