The Burning Question: How Many Feathers (Draft Picks) Do the Eagles Have This Year?
Ever feel like the Philadelphia Eagles' General Manager, Howie Roseman, is a magician when it comes to the NFL Draft? Dude pulls off trades like David Copperfield pulling a rabbit out of a hat. But this year, with the draft well in the rearview mirror, let's get down to brass tacks: how many rookies did the Eagles actually snag?
Hold onto your helmets, folks, because this is where it gets interesting...
The answer isn't as straightforward as you might think. Remember that time Howie traded his socks for a first-round pick? (Okay, maybe that's a rumor, but you get the idea). The Eagles entered the 2024 draft with eight glorious picks. But Howie, being Howie, couldn't resist a little wheeling and dealing.
QuickTip: A careful read saves time later.
Let's Decipher Howie's Draft Day Math:
- Top 53 Picks: The Eagles swooped in with a cool three picks in the top 53, which is pretty darn good for building a strong foundation.
- Missing in Action: Apparently, Howie isn't a huge fan of rounds three and seven this year, because the Eagles sat those out completely. Maybe Howie forgot his lucky penny for those rounds?
- The Final Tally: So, all things considered, the Eagles ended up with nine rookies joining the team. Seems Howie found a few extra feathers (picks) stashed under the metaphorical couch cushion!
