Let’s dive into the Philadelphia Eagles updates…
Breakout Candidates for 2023
Post-NFL draft breakout candidates for all 32 teams – PFF
For the Philadelphia Eagles, safety Sydney Brown is a notable candidate. Despite new competition from Andrew Mukuba, a third-round pick, Brown, who was also a third-round choice in 2023, has the advantage of experience in both the NFL and in Vic Fangio’s defensive scheme. He started as a rookie before an injury limited him to one starting game in 2024, where he impressively achieved a 92.0 overall grade and a 90.4 coverage grade.
Contract Talks and Future Prospects
To maintain their winning streak, the Eagles first need to address the Nick Sirianni situation.
Recently, the Eagles secured tight end Dallas Goedert for an additional year as he was entering the final season of a contract worth $14 million per year. He’s now set to earn $10 million this season plus incentives. With that secured, the focus shifts to extending Super Bowl-winning coach Nick Sirianni, whose contract expires after the upcoming season. The timing remains uncertain—what’s causing the delay?

The Hunter vs The Hunted
The Competitive Landscape – Iggles Blitz
Dallas boasts a franchise quarterback and several standout players, but their roster still has evident weaknesses. The team is taking calculated risks to compete with the Eagles. George Pickens is a talented receiver with potential but comes with significant baggage that contributed to his dropping out of the first round. If he can refocus, combined with CeeDee Lamb’s abilities, Dak Prescott could achieve impressive numbers—assuming he gets the necessary protection from his revamped offensive line.
