If the Eagles had their way, my guess is they’d draft an offensive tackle.

Both are high-upside linemen who could become potential Lane Johnson replacements with development. Proctor has the added benefit of being able to swing inside to guard early in his career. Both are under 22 years old and come from programs the Eagles trust. (Five of the Eagles’ last six first-round picks came from Alabama or Georgia.) The question is whether they’ll slip to a territory for the Eagles.

Dane Brugler projected Freeling to go No. 17 to the Detroit Lions and Proctor to fall to the Eagles at No. 23. Howie Roseman hasn’t drafted an offensive lineman in the first round since 2019. He takes pride in building along the line of scrimmage.

You can’t dictate the board, but it would make sense for Roseman to put his philosophy into action.Freeling a Draft – Iggles BlitzOT Kadyn Proctor could also be a target. He’s 6-7, 352 and has good feet. The knock on Proctor is that he got up in the 380 to 390 range this season and didn’t play to his full potential.

Put on his tape against little R Mason Thomas and you’ll see some issues. Proctor got in shape for the Combine and looked great. If his NFL team can keep the weight down, he could be a very good OT.

I don’t think he’s got the same ceiling as Freeling, but he is unique due to his combination of size and footwork. Some think Proctor could be a dominant OG. If the Eagles took him, they could have him compete for the RG job as a rookie and then move to RT whenver Lane retires.

Proctor will likely go in the teens. A month ago there was some thought he might make it to 23, but that seems less likely. If Freeling goes first, Proctor could become the apple of Howie’s eye.Some tough decisions in Eagles-only fan-sourced mock draft – NBCSPRound 1-23: Kadyn Proctor, OT, Alabama.

The Eagles find their Lane Johnson replacement in Round 1. While there’s plenty of buzz about Proctor (6-6, 352) going before the Eagles’ pick at 23, this would represent good value for the Birds. Proctor is an enormous offensive tackle who could probably play guard too.

His weight is something to watch in the NFL but Proctor has a very high ceiling after already being a three-year starter at Alabama.Ranking 11 linebackers in the 2026 NFL Draft – BGN5. Josiah Trotter, Missouri. Overall: A physical, instinctive linebacker whose toughness and tackling reflect a traditional downhill profile.

There are some coverage limitations that will need addressing, but his run-defending instincts are reliable. Eagles Thoughts: I loved the last Trotter coming out of college, and I’m glad he’s still on the Eagles. They can’t add another one, right?

Jokes aside, I do like Josiah, and having both Trotters on the roster would be cool. But I can’t see the Eagles drafting him at the round he ends up going in.Ranking the Eagles’ 10 best Day 3 picks of the Howie Roseman era – PhillyVoice5) CB Jalen Mills, 7th round, 2016: Mills wasn’t always the most popular Eagles player when he was in Philadelphia, but he was the CB1 of a championship team and he made some big plays along the way, notably his coverage on Julio Jones on the final play of the Divisional Round game against the Falcons in the 2017 playoffs. He also dyed his hair green and he wagged his finger whenever a quarterback would overthrow a receiver by 10 yards.Nick Foles: A.J.

Brown wants to be traded – PFT“They have a first-year coordinator in Sean Mannion,” Foles said. “You don’t want to deal with, you know, what they dealt with last year with A.J. Now, A.J. had merit looking back.

Like, why was he frustrated? Well, it was the concepts of the offense and how it was [run] with Kevin Patullo. Looking back, that’s maybe what the frustration was.

Was it with Jalen Hurts? I don’t know. I’m not in the facility. No idea. But because of those things and different people I know around the league that know A.J. a little bit . . .what I’ve gathered is, [he] wants to be traded, but I also think like he wants to be traded to specific places.Eagles’ Super Bowl champ Alshon Jeffery arrested for fraud stemming from car crash – InquirerAlshon Jeffery, the former Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver who helped the team win their first Super Bowl, was arrested and charged with insurance fraud in California, according to court documents.Jeffery’s insurance policy on his Mercedes-Benz had lapsed when he rear-
