Philadelphia Eagles GM Howie Roseman may face a difficult decision this summer, when it comes to free agent running back A.J. Dillon.
The Philadelphia Eagles have had an interesting start to the 2026 NFL offseason. As Howie Roseman looks to power the team back into Super Bowl contention, they have both lost players and added a couple nice pieces as well.
Among the notable departures are Nakobe Dean and Jaelan Phillips. They also lost Reed Blankenship in free agency.
Roseman has made a big addition in the secondary with the signing of Riq Woolen. He also went out on the trade market and acquired backup quarterback Andy Dalton from the Carolina Panthers. With Dalton on the roster, there has been speculation about Tanner McKee being dealt.
Keeping that in mind, the Eagles have now been predicted to make yet another quarterback move this offseason.
Philadelphia Eagles Land Prediction to Add Another Quarterback
Pro Football Network’s T.J. Randall has predicted that Philadelphia will select Arkansas quarterback Taylen Green with the No. 153 overall pick in the fifth round of the 2026 NFL Draft.
Adding Green would almost certainly come after a McKee trade. If the Eagles hold on to McKee, they would have no need to bring in another signal caller with Dalton also in town.
McKee would have solid trade value if Philadelphia made him available on the market. He is just 25 years old and has played in six games over the last two years with the Eagles. In those two seasons, he has completed 61.4 percent of his pass attempts for 597 yards, five touchdowns, and an interception.
Let’s take a closer look at what Green would bring to the table for Philadelphia.
What Would Taylen Green Bring to the Eagles’ QB Room?
Green is coming off of a five-year college football career. He spent his first three seasons with Bowling Green before playing the last two years at Arkansas.
During the 2025 season with the Razorbacks, Green completed 60.7 percent of his pass attempts for 2,714 yards, 19 touchdowns, and 11 interceptions. He also ran for 777 yards and another eight scores.
Throughout his entire college career, Green has thrown for 9,662 yards, 59 touchdowns, and 35 interceptions to go along with 2,403 rushing yards and 35 touchdowns on the ground.
Coming into the NFL, Green will bring a lot of raw potential. An NFL coaching staff will need to work hard to develop him. However, he has the talent to be a solid dual-threat backup quarterback at least in the professional ranks.
Obviously, this is just a prediction. The Eagles may not have any interest in drafting Green. But, if they do, he could become a nice long-term backup quarterback addition.
