So, what to make of the NFL Draft Weekend? A great three days for the Eagles, no doubt. They trusted their scouting board, they drafted with purpose, they addressed needs, and they brought in high-character players – five of the nine draft picks, Roseman said, were given red stars by the personnel team, indicating personal favorites that checked every one of the high-scrutiny boxes. Surely you understand that every team in the league feels good about its draft, and this weekend when the Eagles hold their post-draft camp, they will know a whole lot more about their rookies.
What the Eagles have right now is a high-quality roster, chock full of talent and competition at every single position. Developing those players, establishing a depth chart, narrowing the list to 53 active players, and another 16 for the practice squad, that is the course of action for the next four months.
“I just think everybody is, ‘Hey, we’re starting again,'” Sirianni said. “Obviously none of us are satisfied. All of us are pissed off of how that (2023) ended. But we’re working every single day in the sense of how do we get better today, how do we get better today, how do we get better today, and putting it one day at a time.
“I do sense that everybody has that feeling of unsatisfaction from last year. And that’s a good thing when you can control it, right? That’s our job is to make sure that we’re controlling it and not knowing – we can’t go out and win the first game right now against Green Bay or anything like that. We have to take it one day at a time and do what we need to do today to get ready.”
The Eagles nailed it in free agency and then did the same in the NFL Draft. One move at a time, one day at a time, and the team is where it wants to be, with another critical several steps – developing the players into the new systems – at the top of the list.
But the momentum is undeniable. Last year served as a lesson learned, and boy, have the Eagles come out flying in this offseason.
