Chris Mortensen suggests there’s some internal Eagles support (?) for Zach Wilson
USA TODAY NETWORK But not from the owner, apparently. Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie is drawing criticism for being too meddlesome in the wake of Chris Mortensen’s report that the owner wants Jalen Hurts to be the team’s starting quarterback in 2021. Such feedback seemingly prompted Mort to clarify his original report with the following Twitter thread: Desean Jackson ... must have Deshaun Watson on my mind. Can't imagine why.— Chris Mortensen (@mortreport) March 8, 2021 There's been some opinions expressed that the Eagles should draft BYU QB Zach Wilson. As...

Sticking with Jalen Hurts is Philadelphia Eagles best option, for now
Come on. They used a second-round selection on this guy.

Report: Lurie wants Jalen Hurts to be the Eagles’ starting QB this year, doesn’t want competition

Answering the biggest Eagles draft questions
Photo by Sam Greenwood/ With help from Sports Info Solutions. There are a number of questions to wonder about the Philadelphia Eagles heading into the 2021 NFL Draft. Some of these include, but are not limited to: Should the Eagles draft a quarterback? Or just ride with Jalen Hurts? How are the top quarterbacks ranked? Who, if anyone, is worth realistically trading up for? Could the Eagles actually take Mac Jones?! Is Kyle Pitts a realistic option for the Eagles at No. 6? Is he more than just a tight end? Which wide receiver prospect makes the most sense for...

Report: Eagles have had trade discussions about Brandon Brooks
Photo by Mitchell Leff/ Unexpected. The Philadelphia Eagles appear to be open to moving three-time Pro Bowl right guard Brandon Brooks. NFL insider Albert Breer reports Brooks’ name has come up in trade discussions this offseason. Breer specifically mentioned Brooks among players from “the more cap-strapped teams” that will be looking “to get value back for some high-end, high-salaried players.” Among the NFL’s best guards before he got hurt, a torn Achilles cost him the 2020 season. But he was healthy enough to practice before the end of the year, and the...

How the Salary Cap Squeeze Will Impact the NFL Over the Next Few Weeks - MMQBEven if the TV deals get done and provide some relief—and that’s the hope of many (and even then, most of the deals won’t kick in until 2023, which means the union would still have to negotiate the NFL borrowing against future years to fund this year’s cap)—that fifth highway lane isn’t coming back.

NFL Mock Draft Roundup: All offense, no defense for the Eagles
Photo by Alika Jenner/ Pass catcher continues to be the most popular option. The 2021 NFL Draft is merely 52 days away! Let’s pass the time together until then by looking at who mock drafts have the Philadelphia Eagles taking with the No. 6 overall pick. Kyle Pitts, TE, Florida — ESPN+ (Todd McShay) Despite the Eagles’ glaring weakness at wide receiver, I’m mixing it up with Pitts at No. 6. It’d be the 10th time a tight end has been drafted before the first wide receiver off the board, and only four other tight ends have ever been taken in the top six. But...
