NFL Draft: Eagles currently have 11 first-round picks on the roster

After months of waiting, we're now just days away from the opening night of the 2026 NFL Draft. This year, the NFL Draft Main Theater and Main Stage will be located just outside Acrisure Stadium on Pittsburgh's North Shore, placing the Draft at the heart of one of the country's most recognizable sports districts.

The NFL's initial wave of Free agency has come and gone, meaning all eyes will turn toward the selection process, which separates the gold-standard organizations from those that consistently pick in the top 5. The players on the open market are critical. Still, Philadelphia prefers to build through the draft, and Howie Roseman will have nine picks to help replenish the talent that's expected to depart.

With the selection weekend just hours away now, we're highlighting and examining the 11 first-round picks currently on the Philadelphia Eagles roster ahead of the 2026 NFL Draft.

OL Lane Johnson

Johnson, 35, is a future Hall of Famer with a resume that includes six Pro Bowls, two first-team All-Pro nods, and a pair of Super Bowl wins. Johnson's value is clear: the Eagles were 8-2 with him in the lineup this season, versus 3-4 without him. During his tenure in Philadelphia, the team's record is 94-41-1 when he plays and 15-27 when he doesn't.

DE Brandon Graham

Graham hinted at returning for a 17th season while honoring Dick Vermeil, saying he hopes to win another Super Bowl in his final year. The 16-year veteran came out of retirement midway through this season to help the Eagles' defensive line depth and ended up playing both edge rusher and defensive tackle this season.

Graham is currently third on the Eagles' all-time sack list with 79.5, behind Reggie White (124.0) and Trent Cole (85.5). Before retiring after the 2024 Super Bowl win, Graham, the Eagles' 1st-round pick in 2010, set franchise records by playing 15 seasons and appearing in 218 games, including 12 postseason games.

WR DeVonta Smith

Smith recorded 240 catches for 3,178 yards and 19 touchdowns over his first three seasons with Philadelphia. Smith shattered the Eagles' rookie record for receiving yards (916) in 2021, surpassing a mark previously held by DeSean Jackson, and established a team record for single-season receptions by a wide receiver (95) in 2022. Since signing the extension, Smith logged 68 catches for 833 yards and eight touchdowns in the 2024 Super Bowl season and 77 catches for 1,008 yards and four touchdowns in 2025. Since that time, overall, Smith has 145 catches, for 1,841 yards and 12 touchdowns.

The 1,841 yards is 21st in the NFL since that time, and his 145 catches are tied with teammate A.J. Brown for 17th. Brown's 2,082 yards are 14th since that time.

DT Jordan Davis

Davis has been a solid run-stopper, but before last season, he'd never played 600 snaps in a season. In 2024, he logged 27 tackles (15 solo), including 1.0 sack and two passes defended, while playing in all 17 regular-season games. His production increased during the postseason, with six tackles (four solo), including two sacks and one pass defense, across four playoff appearances. After a spring and summer on the Peloton, Davis led all NFL interior DL in run stops (34) and ranked 3rd among DTs in tackles (career-high 72), trailing only Cameron Heyward (78) and Derrick Brown (73). Davis and Jalen Carter also tied for the 2nd-most batted passes (6) among interior DL, behind Brown (7).

DT Jalen Carter

The former Georgia All-American has earned one All-Pro nod and has been voted to the Pro Bowl twice since being selected as the No. 9 overall pick in the 2023 NFL draft.

Despite two badly injured shoulders, Carter was the Eagles' lone Pro Bowl starter. In 12 games this season, he had 33 tackles, 41 QB pressures, 11 quarterback hits, and three sacks. Carter dealt with injuries last season, but will certainly have his fifth-year option exercised, and is eligible for a contract extension. He's logged 108 total tackles, 25 tackles for loss, 13.5 sacks, and four forced fumbles over the past three seasons.

OLB Nolan Smith

Smith will enter Year 4 with questions about his durability and whether Howie Roseman will deem him worthy of a fifth-year option ($19 million) that would pay him among the top ten pass rushers in the NFL. A solid run defender and explosive pass rusher, Smith missed seven games in 2025, logging 31 tackles, 3 sacks, one forced fumble, 33 QB pressures, 24 QB hurries, and a 67.7 PFF grade in 12 games.

CB Quinyon Mitchell

Already named to his first Pro Bowl, Mitchell is now an All-Pro. According to Next Gen Stats, Quinyon Mitchell led all NFL cornerbacks in catch rate allowed (42.4%) and average target separation (1.8) (min. 60 targets). He also ranked 2nd among cornerbacks in tight windows forced (41.2%), behind Pat Surtain II (41.3%), and YAC per reception allowed (2.3), trailing only Keisean Nixon (2.3) (min. 35 receptions). In addition, Mitchell finished 3rd at his position in both passer rating allowed (63.4), behind Derek Stingley (57.9) and Joey Porter Jr. (61.5), and 3rd in forced incompletions (16, tied), trailing only Riley Moss (21) and A.J. Terrell (18). He was the only CB not to give up a TD in 600+ coverage snaps.

LB Jihaad Campbell

Campbell was the first off-ball linebacker the Eagles have selected in the first round since Jerry Robinson in 1979. The Erial, New Jersey native was named to the first-team All-SEC in 2024 after leading the Crimson Tide with 117 tackles, 11.5 tackles for loss, and five sacks. As a rookie, a versatile player with a bright future, Campbell played in all 17 games and started 10, logging 80 tackles and one interception, along with a fumble recovery and one forced fumble. Campbell's 76.2 grade from Pro Football Focus was the 13th-best among 88 NFL linebackers, and his presence is the main reason the Eagles can feel comfortable allowing Nakobe Dean to depart in free agency.

OLB Joe Tryon-Shoyinka

The pass rusher spent his first four seasons in Tampa with the Buccaneers. Last season with the Bears and Browns, Tryon-Shoyinka earned a 72.2 overall PFF defensive grade, and a pass-rush grade of 67.6, with a run-defense grade of 66.2. Tryon-Shoyinka generated 8 total pressures, 0 sacks, 6 hurries, and 2 QB hits. Against the run, he recorded 10 solo tackles. Tryon-Shoyinka has never produced more than 5.0 sacks in a single season and logged only 2.0 in 2024. The former Washington first-round pick only played 142 snaps in 2025.

WR Marquise 'Hollywood' Brown

Brown heads to Philadelphia on a one-year deal worth up to $6.5 million. A former Ravens first-round pick, Brown caught 49 passes for 587 yards and five touchdowns last season and still separates from coverage. In seven NFL seasons since departing Oklahoma, Brown has 371 receptions for 4,322 yards and 33 touchdowns.

RB Saquon Barkley

Even in a down season, Barkley made history in 2025. Barkley played in 16 games (16 starts), running for 1,140 yards on 280 carries (4.1 avg.) with 7 TDs, adding 273 receiving yards on 37 catches (7.4 avg.) with two touchdowns. Barkley became the first Eagle since LeSean McCoy in 2013-14 to post back-to-back 1,000+ yard rushing seasons, but will look to regain his Offensive Player of the Year production that led to a 2,005 yard season in 2025.
