Final seven-round NFL mock draft: Eagles land two more Georgia Bulldogs
Kirby Lee-USA TODAY Sports

The Philadelphia Eagles love their Georgia Bulldogs, so in this final 2024 NFL mock draft, we have two more of them heading to Philly. 

Yes, I know the draft rumors say that Howie Roseman is looking to trade up to take a cornerback, but you never know how things could fall on draft day. 

So, with that said, let's get into the Eagles' final seven-round mock draft. 

First round, 22 overall: OT Amarius Mims, Georgia

Amarius Mims is expected to go off the draft boards a lot earlier than pick No. 22, however, there's a chance he falls later if teams are concerned that he hasn't seen enough college starts with only eight. 

But the Eagles won't be concerned if a 6-foot-7, 330-pound monster that ran a 5.07 40-yard dash is waiting for them when they're on the clock. 

Second round, 50 overall: Mike Sainristil, CB, Michigan

If the Eagles turn to the trenches with their first pick then they're going to need to address their secondary in the second round. 

Mike Sainristil is a former receiver-turned-cornerback who would be a great nickel option to eventually replace Avonte Maddox

He's fresh off an All-American season where he logged a career-high six interceptions, two of which he returned for scores.

Second round, 53 overall: Javon Bullard, S,  Georgia

Javon Bullard is the other Georgia Bulldog that makes sense for the Eagles. 

The Eagles' secondary ranked near the bottom last season so don't expect them to stop at adding only a cornerback. 

Sure, they brought back C.J. Gardner-Johnson in NFL free agency but Bullard would offer quality depth with his versatility and 4.4 speed.  

Fourth round, 120 overall: Javon Solomon, Edge, Troy

The Eagles love the Bulldogs, but they love stacking the trenches even more so you can expect them to do just that like they have in every draft. 

Javon Solomon, who led the FBS with 16 sacks last season, would be another explosive weapon for Vic Fangio to use in his rotation. 

Fifth round, 161 overall: Luke McCaffrey, WR, Rice

The Eagles' No. 3 wide receiver remains a question mark heading into the 2024 season. 

Luke, who is the brother of Christian McCaffrey and son of Ed McCaffrey, could fill that void. 

After playing quarterback for two seasons for the Owls, McCaffrey switched to wide receiver and never looked back. He hauled in a team-high 992 receiving yards and 13 touchdowns in 2023. 

He impressed scouts at the NFL combine with how quickly he could change direction. 

Fifth round, 171 overall:  JD Bertrand, LB, Notre Dame

The Eagles desperately need to beef up their linebacker room and that's where JD Bertrand comes in. 

Bertrand enters the draft after he tallied 30 quarterback pressures, including four sacks and seven QB hits in his final season with the Fighting Irish. 

He may not be the most athletic option but his instincts rank high, and that's something Fangio can work with. 

Fifth round, 172 overall: Jaheim Bell, TE, Florida State

Tight end is an underrated need for the Eagles and Jaheim Bell would be a steal if he's still there in the later rounds. 

Bell is a do-it-all tight end who can also line up out wide or in the slot. 

He had to compete with Johnny Wilson and Keon Coleman for targets but he still managed to reel in 39 passes for 503 yards and two scores last season. 

Sixth round, 210 overall: Rasheen Ali, RB, Marshall

The Eagles gave Saquon Barkley a big payday in NFL free agency but they still could use some backfield depth behind Kenneth Gainwell. 

Rasheen Ali, a dual-threat running back, rushed for 1,135 yards and 15 touchdowns on 212 carries and added 213 yards and a score in the air last fall.
