McMullen’s 1.0 and Only Eagles Mock Draft

Here goes nothing, my 1.0 and only stab at what the Eagles will do later this week during the 2026 NFL Draft:

Round 1 (No. 23) — Alabama OT Kadyn Proctor

Ultimately, I finished where I started. Proctor was an obvious fit had the Eagles not moved on from Jeff Stoutland, a power-based player with athleticism that could start inside at guard and kick outside to right tackle when Lane Johnson walked away.

When the Eagles moved away from Stoutland and to a wide-zone philosophy, the easy mindset was to drift to Clemson’s Blake Miller or Arizona State’s Max Iheanachor, and any of that trio could be in the mix.

Howie Roseman’s insistence that the Eagles’ personnel department evaluates independently of scheme reversed me back to Proctor, who should be the pick if available, hardly a given with Detroit in the mix for the former Alabama star at No. 17 overall.

Round 2 (No. 54) — Trade with Minnesota for veteran edge rusher Jonathan Greenard with an extension ($25M AAV)

Greenard (28) is a proven pass-rush specialist who exploded for a 2024 Pro Bowl season with the Vikings (12 sacks, 18 TFLs). In 2025, he played just 12 games (injury-limited, including a shoulder issue), finishing with only 3 sacks but maintaining a strong 23.3% pass-rush win rate and solid pressures per game when healthy.

The Eagles have checked in on him multiple times this offseason. Adding Greenard via trade (Vikings reportedly want a premium Day 2 pick like 54) gives Vic Fangio an immediate centerpiece edge rusher for rotation and pressure packages. The post-trade extension locks him in as a win-now piece while addressing the pass rush without adding a rookie to the rotation.

Round 3 (No. 68) — Tight end Oscar Delp, Georgia

Delp is a gifted player who projects as the kind of well-rounded tight end the Eagles want and a better pro than a college player. A blocker first at Georgia, Delp is the kind of athlete who could be a high-volume TE in the passing game.

Round 3 (No. 98) — Safety Jalon Kilgore, South Carolina

Kilgore is perfect for Fangio's scheme as a prospect with hybrid nickel/safety versatility that allows mirroring and box work. He could contribute immediately in sub-packages or as a rotational plus starter. He night be "pie-in-the-sky" at 98 but plausible in a deep class as an eventual plus starter.
