If you hadn't noticed after the first five games of the 2022 regular season, the Philadelphia Eagles are good. Expect Howie Roseman to try to make them even better at the trade deadline.

And if you consider that the Eagles could use another running back or tight end (if Zach Ertz is gone) later in the draft, then there s an argument to be made that literally every position (specialists aside) is a need.
Their weakest positions relative to the rest of the league, in my view, are LB, WR, and CB, in that order. However, factoring in importance, I d list them like so:
•
Cornerback: The Eagles are close to where they were in 2017 at CB, when it was crystal clear that they had to draft multiple corners. I don t know that they have to get at least two in this draft, but they sure as hell have to get at least one, seeing as Darius Slay is aging (and he has no INTs this season), and Avonte Maddox proved this season that he is not an outside corner.
