The Philadelphia Eagles are gearing up for the NFL Combine in Indianapolis, where they'll get a closer look at potential draft picks through athletic tests and on-field drills. With eight selections in the 2026 NFL Draft, the Eagles are poised to make strategic decisions that could be shaped by performances at the combine.
General Manager Howie Roseman and his team will be evaluating all 319 invitees, meeting with many to gauge their fit for the Eagles. Here are some prospects who could be on their radar:
T.J. Parker, EDGE, Clemson
If Jaelan Phillips departs in free agency, Parker might be a prime target for the Eagles. Standing at 6-3 and weighing 260 pounds, Parker uses his reach and strength to dominate, though he lacks quickness and refined moves.
His production dipped from 11 sacks in 2024 to five last season, but his physical traits offer a solid foundation. To truly excel, he’ll need to enhance his pass-rushing skills.
Monroe Freeling, OT, Georgia
Freeling could be groomed as Lane Johnson’s successor, allowing him to develop after being a one-year starter at Georgia. At 6-7 and 315 pounds, his combination of size and athleticism is rare.
Freeling excels in run-blocking and moves with the agility of a tight end. His skill set suits the Eagles' outside-zone run scheme, and they might need to trade up to secure him.
Add Iheanachor, OT
Another candidate to replace Johnson, Iheanachor is a 6-6, 330-pound tackle with impressive footwork. Despite his late start in football, his pass protection skills are exceptional. He needs to build strength for run blocking, but his potential as a pass protector could make him a first-round pick.
Spencer Fano, OT, Utah
Fano stands at 6-6 and 308 pounds, bringing athleticism and technique to the table. He’s effective in both pass protection and run schemes, making him a potential asset. The Eagles would likely need to move up in the draft to acquire him.
Emmanuel Pregnon, OG, Oregon
With potential openings at guard, Pregnon could be a valuable addition. At 6-5 and 318 pounds, he combines power with athleticism, excelling in reaching the second level and handling stunts. His physicality could revitalize Philadelphia’s rushing attack.
Sadiq, TE, Oregon
As a potential replacement for Dallas Goedert, Sadiq’s versatility stands out. He creates mismatches from the slot and as an H-back, using his 6-3, 245-pound frame to both catch and block effectively. His athleticism could be a game-changer for the Eagles.
Max Klare, TE, Ohio State
Klare might surpass his college performance in the pros. At 6-5 and 243 pounds, he’s a vertical threat with solid blocking skills. The Eagles could consider him on Day 2 as a successor to Goedert.
Denzel Boston, WR, Washington
If the Eagles part ways with A.J. Brown, Boston could be a viable replacement.
Known for his contested catches and smooth route running, he amassed 881 yards and 11 touchdowns last season. His ability to separate from defenders makes him a promising prospect.
Cooper, WR
Built like a running back at 6-0 and 204 pounds, Cooper excels in breaking tackles and route running. His versatility could be maximized by Eagles offensive coordinator Sean Mannion, positioning him all over the field.
Concepcion, WR
Though undersized at 5-11 and 190 pounds, Concepcion is a speedster who thrives on deep routes and quick breaks. He’s adept at finding open spaces against zone coverage, though he must address his drop issues to fulfill his potential. He's projected as a late-first or early-second-round pick.
The Eagles are meticulously evaluating these prospects, aiming to bolster their roster for the upcoming season.
