With the first wave of NFL free agency over, all eyes around the league will turn toward pro days and one final month-long push toward April’s NFL draft.
Philadelphia has needs, but after a strong start to the free agency process, the first-round pick (No. 22) could be about nagging the best player available or a potential building block in the trenches.
Mock draft season is in full swing, and most draft experts and pundits will likely simulate 100s scenarios for all seven rounds, with realistic options starting to take shape.

He’d be an immediate upgrade at the No. 3 wide receiver spot with Quez Watkins and Olamide Zaccheaus departing.
Olumuyiwa Fashanu, OL, Penn State
Fashanu was named the Rimington-Pace Big Ten Offensive Lineman of the Year and earned first-team All-Big Ten honors from the coaches and media.
He started all 12 games at left tackle, allowing zero sacks in 365 pass blocking snaps.

Mitchell is an outstanding athlete who makes plays with his burst and ball skills on the backend.
Mitchell is an All-MAC cornerback and Bednarik Award nominee; Mitchell has had six interceptions and 37 pass breakups over the past two years.
Laiatu Latu, Edge Rusher, UCLA
Latu earned All-American honors and was named the Pac-12 Defensive Player of the Year in 2023. He posted 13 sacks with 21.5 tackles for loss, 49 total tackles and 2 forced fumbles during 12 games.
