11) Philadelphia Eagles. GRADE: B+. It’s curious how Jihaad Campbell fell into the Eagles’ hands, with many anticipating it but no one intervening, aside from the Chiefs prompting a trade to secure him. Ultimately, the reigning Super Bowl champions snagged Daniel Jeremiah’s top-rated No. 12 pick at 31 overall. Despite concerns about Campbell’s shoulder surgery, this acquisition seems to enrich an already formidable lineup, pairing him with Zack Baun to create a dynamic linebacker duo. The Eagles continue to solidify their position as the league’s strongest roster.

Campbell is set to wear No. 30, which isn’t particularly traditional for a linebacker. He previously wore it at Alabama and switched to No. 11 last season, suggesting some continuity. However, a number change could be desirable. No. 59 might work if Thomas Booker IV doesn’t remain on the roster, and No. 95 could have been intriguing for a pass-rushing linebacker, reminiscent of Mychal Kendricks.

31. Philadelphia Eagles. Eli Stowers, TE, Vanderbilt. The Eagles are breaking from tradition in their draft approach. After selecting a cornerback in Round 1 last year (Quinyon Mitchell) for the first time since 2002, they opted for linebacker Jihaad Campbell this time. Continuing this trend, they could select Stowers as their first Round 1 tight end since 1988.
