It's not even training camp and here we are talking about the 2026 NFL Draft for the Philadelphia Eagles.
There will be some positions of interest for the Eagles going into next offseason, with tight end, edge, defensive line, cornerback, and wide receiver being just a few examples. Don't forget about the offensive line. Eagles general manager Howie Roseman loves his linemen.
The Eagles are going to have plenty of draft picks going into the 2026 NFL Draft. For this mock draft, Pro Football Network's draft simulator was used for the seven rounds. Philadelphia has 10 picks in the simulator, but keep in mind they will have more with compensatory picks not being included.
Here is the full seven-round Eagles mock draft for 2026:
Round 1, Pick 32: Caleb Banks, DT, Florida
Banks doesn't quite have the size of other defensive tackles at 265 pounds, but he can do the exact same thing Jordan Davis and Jalen Carter can do now: rush the passer and stop the run. Last season, Banks had a career-high 4.5 sacks with the Gators and could be in for an even better 2025 campaign. He would be the perfect rotational player on the line and Roseman loves his linemen in the first round.
Round 2, Pick 64: A.J. Harris, CB, Penn State
There have been questions going into training camp about who would be the third cornerback with Quinyon Mitchell and Cooper DeJean. If Kelee Ringo or Adoree Jackson doesn't work out, Harris would be a good pick to take over. Harris was a Georgia Bulldog before transferring to Penn State last year, when he had 48 tackles, five pass deflections, and one interception. Not a turnover machine, but still strong in coverage to develop into a third cornerback for Philly.
Round 3, Pick 66: David Bailey, EDGE, Texas Tech
Bailey fits exactly what Eagles defensive coordinator Vic Fangio wants in his defenders: athletic. This will be Bailey's first year in Lubbock, Texas, after playing his first three years with Stanford. He got better each season with 2024 seeing Bailey racking up seven sacks and five forced fumble. If he plays well in 2025, he might not be available in the third round, but this would be an excellent pickup for an Eagles EDGE position with questions of their own this year.
Round 3, Pick 96: Oscar Delp, TE, Georgia
Let's be honest: Georgia player. But looking deeper, the Bulldogs produced Brock Bowers, so the Eagles should go to the well for Delp, who had 248 yards and four touchdowns last year. Dallas Goedert is looking more like a free agent in 2026, so the Eagles need someone to replace him, and Delp would make an intriguing option.
Round 4, Pick 129: Xavier Chaplin, OT, Auburn
This is a Jeff Stoutland special right here with Chaplin. At 6-foot-7 and 338 pounds, the Eagles need to start thinking about Lane Johnson's eventual replacement, and Chaplin has the size to take over at right tackle. Chaplin could be a developmental player at the beginning, but he won't need to rush onto the field at first, and Stoutland can work to get him there.
Round 5, Pick 139: Eric Rivers, WR, Georgia Tech
Rivers will have a lot to show in the ACC this year after playing the last two years with Florida International. He was electric last year with 62 catches for 1,162 yards and 12 touchdowns with an average of 18.9 yards per reception. Jahan Dotson could be out in 2026 after a disappointing 2024 season, so the Eagles would find their new number three receiver behind A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith with Rivers.
Round 5, Pick 146: Jonah Coleman, RB, Washington
Do the Eagles need a running back? Not particularly, but Saquon Barkley has the potential to hit a bump in his career in 2025, and who knows if A.J. Dillon sticks around after this upcoming season. Coleman is one of the top backs in the country after 1,053 yards and 10 touchdowns last year with the Huskies. Philadelphia could always use depth at running back, as Coleman could be the second or third string with Barkley and Will Shipley there.
Round 5, Pick 154: Amare Campbell, LB, Penn State
Penn State is "Linebacker University", so it makes sense to keep Campbell local in Pennsylvania and add depth to the Eagles. Campbell spent the last two years at North Carolina but had a breakout 2024 season with 76 tackles, 11 tackles for loss, 6.5 sacks, two pass deflections, and one forced fumble in 13 games. Looks like a guy who can take the Jihaad Campbell route and start at inside linebacker before potentially moving to EDGE.
Round 5, Pick 161: Monroe Freeling, OT, Georgia
Another Georgia player should be able to tell fans everything they need to know about Freeling. At 6-foot-7 and 315 pounds, Freeling started four games last year for the Bulldogs and is expected to play a bigger role on the line in 2025. If he can prove himself as a reliable starter when given the opportunity, the Eagles could have another option for a Johnson replacement.

Round 7, Pick 225: Izavion Miller, OT, Auburn
Why not another offensive lineman? The Eagles are known for not being afraid to add linemen wherever they can. Miller has experience at right tackle as a starter for the Tigers last year. Stoutland can have another developmental player to work with.
