2020 Senior Bowl: 5 pass rushers for the Eagles to watch

We’re just moments away from kickoff at the 2020 Reese’s Senior Bowl and with the Eagles holding 10 picks in the NFL draft, it’ll be imperative for Howie Roseman and company to evaluate the best senior talent in America.

With Brandon Graham, Fletcher Cox and Malik Jackson getting up there in age, it’ll be imperative for the Eagles to land some young talent along the defensive front.

Here are five pass rushers, regardless of the position that the Eagles should watch.

***

1. Javon Kinlaw, DT, South Carolina.

Kinlaw destroyed the competition during the first two days of practice and after shutting it down for precaution, the former Gamecocks star may have dominated his way into the top of the first round. Kinlaw is a defensive tackle but flashed intense pass-rushing prowess from the inside.

Kinlaw can improve as a pass rusher, but with Fletcher Cox and Malik Jackson aging, the Eagles could be tempted by an out of this world athlete.

2. Jason Strowbridge, DE, North Carolina.

A tweener, with a long, lengthy frame, Strowbridge played well at the point of attack all week long, showcasing the ability to win in a one-on-one scenario.

Strowbridge performed like a physical freak all week long and showed he can be a game wrecker on the inside or off the edge.

3.Oklahoma DT Neville Gallimore

The Oklahoma star flashed some pass-rush potential and displayed quickness for his size.

Standing 6-foot-2, 304 pounds, Gallimore has been clocked at a sub-4.8 40-yard dash and is powerful with an almost 800 pound squat.

4.Josh Uche | EDGE | Michigan

A standup linebacker for Jim Harbaugh and the Wolverines, Uche has the ability to be an every-down pass rusher in the NFL, who can also be versatile in a zone or man pass coverage.

5. Jonathan Greenard | EDGE | Florida

A fast and powerful outside linebacker at Florida, Greenard offers athleticism and strength that could easily translate to NFL pass rusher.
