But as we saw last season, the Eagles got major contributions from their top three draft picks in cornerback Quinyon Mitchell, who became a starter right away; nickel Cooper DeJean, who became a full-time player Week 6; and edge rusher Jalyx Hunt, who became a significant part of the rotation over the second half of the season.

Cam Jurgens ended up being a Pro Bowler and earned a four-year, $68 million contract extension. He’s the center of the future. This was a perfect pick, and the Eagles were able to use their own pick to get him without any sort of trade.

The Eagles enter this season as the defending champions after dominating the Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX in February.
