EaglesNFL Draft 2026
After months of rumors and projections, the Eagles will finally make their first-round pick Thursday night and add seven more rookies over the following two days of the 2026 NFL Draft.
Taking their long-term needs and roster construction into account, the Eagles have more issues to address on offense than defense and could use most—if not all—of their premium picks on offensive players. Of course, that may not ultimately happen if they really like a defensive player on Day 1 or Day 2 and decide to take them with one of their picks.
But it’s certainly a possibility.
If that scenario plays out, here’s what the Eagles draft haul could be after the first two days:
Round 1 (No. 23): Max Iheanachor, OT, Arizona State
Iheanachor struggles with footwork and timing up his punches, which could be a problem in the NFL.
It’s not surprising that Iheanachor’s technique is all over the place. He just started playing football five years ago and is still learning the nuances of the position.
The Eagles could be Iheanachor’s perfect landing spot. He could learn behind All-Pro right tackle Lane Johnson, clean up his technique issues and take over as the starter after Johnson retires.
Iheanachor has an awesome combination of size (6-5, 7/8”, 321 pounds), length (33 7/8”), movement skills and power. He is very nimble for his size and is able to mirror explosive pass rushers. In due time, he could develop into one of the NFL’s best pass protectors.
Round 2 (No. 54): Chase Bisontis, OG, Texas A&M
Bisontis is pro-ready in several areas, including picking up blitzes and stunts, anchoring with power and using his athleticism to reach the second level to block linebackers.
