Breaking News:Looking back at the Philadelphia Eagles’ 2023 draft picks ahead of the 2024 NFL draft
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) – The Philadelphia Eagles have eight picks in the 2024 NFL draft, beginning with No. 22 in Thursday night’s first round and two more in the second round Friday.
The Eagles spiraled in 2023 after starting the season 10-1. The Birds lost six of their final seven games and lost to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the NFC Wild Card Round.
The collapse brought Nick Sirianni’s job security into question. Sirianni will return for his fourth season but with new coordinators — Vic Fangio on defense and Kellen Moore on offense.
Philadelphia lost both Jason Kelce and Fletcher Cox to retirement and traded Haason Reddick to the New York Jets, but executive vice president and general manager Howie Roseman made waves in free agency.
The Eagles signed running back Saquon Barkley and edge rusher Bryce Huff and brought defensive back C.J. Gardner-Johnson back. The Birds also traded for quarterback Kenny Pickett to back up Jalen Hurts.
Before the next phase of the offseason begins Thursday with the draft in Detroit, Michigan, let’s take a look back at last year’s class – the Birds came away from the 2023 draft with seven players.
