Whereas I’ve watched highlights from the Tremendous Bowl every single day because it occurred, apparently a NEW season of soccer remains to be going to start out in September. Earlier than that may occur nevertheless, every crew will get to pick out quite a few former faculty standouts within the annual NFL Draft (April 24-April 26) which takes place in Inexperienced Bay, Wis. this 12 months.

The Philadelphia Eagles can have the final choose within the first spherical, resulting from being the defending Tremendous Bowl champs after all, and 7 picks in rounds two by way of 5, though Govt VP/GM/Wizard Howie Roseman has been recognized to make a deal or two on draft weekend.

2026 Picks:

1st spherical (PHI)2nd spherical (PHI)third spherical (PHI)third spherical (NYJ)4th spherical (PHI)fifth spherical (PHI)fifth spherical (HOU)seventh spherical (PHI)4 compensatory picks too (third, 4th, fifth, sixth rounds I feel)

Potential Group Wants (2025 free brokers in parentheses):

EDGE (Josh Sweat, Brandon Graham)LB (Zack Baun, Oren Burks, Ben VanSumeren; Nakobe Dean FA in 26)OG (Mekhi Becton, Fred Johnson)OT (Jack Driscoll; Darian Kinnard, Brett Toth FAs in 26)TE (C.J.
