Predicting Which Eagles Land in NFL's Top 100

The NFL is hours away from unveiling the Top 100 players from the 2024 season.

As the defending Super Bowl champions, it's safe to assume that the Philadelphia Eagles will have more names listed in that group of honorees than any other team in the league.

Right?

It's time to review the list of Eagles that should make the list this time. Our Who’s Who …

Lane Johnson Johnson might just be the best right tackle in football. So long as he continues to play at a high level, he will most assuredly have a spot on this list until he retires.

Jordan Mailata If Johnson is the best right tackle, Mailata is right there as being a candidate for bring called the best left tackle in the game. His leadership and athleticism were fully displayed last season despite missing five games.

Chauncey Gardner-Johnson Gardner-Johnson led the best defense in football with six interceptions. His outspoken nature added a new edge to their desperately needed defense. He may now be in Houston, but Gardner-Johnson's standing in Philly will remain.

Cam Jurgens In his first season replacing a future Hall-of-Famer in Jason Kelce, Cam Jurgens reached the Pro Bowl last year while stabilizing Philadelphia's offensive line. He deserves a spot on the top 100 list.

A.J. Brown Brown is one of the best receivers in football. He missed four games last year, but still recorded over 1,000 yards receiving for the third straight year since he arrived in Philly.

Zack Baun Baun came from nowhere but then was one of the best linebackers in the sport last season. A first-team All-Pro, the former Saints player is a sure-fire pick on the top 100 list.

Jalen Carter Carter's numbers weren't the best of any interior defensive linemen, but this is one of those “you gotta watch the game” guys as his impact on the Eagles was massive. He's a perennial All-Pro player who is only getting better.

Jalen Hurts You cannot have the Super Bowl MVP not make the list. Hurts was ranked highly after a down year in 2023, but it's a safe bet to assume he'll get a respectable slot after helping to lead the team to a championship.

Saquon Barkley Barkley won't just be on the list … he might just get ranked as the top overall player. Barkley is more than safe to get that honor after a 2,000-yard season and an NFL record for total rushing yards in a single season, including the playoffs.
