The Philadelphia Eagles have several players that they covet in the NFL draft and it’s not without question that Howie Roseman makes a draft-day trade.
The Eagles are likely to include picks in any deal but could also throw in a player or two for some more salary-cap relief.
With the draft set to kick off in over an hour, here are five Eagles that could be apart of draft-night deals.

1. Andre Dillard
The Eagles 2019 first-round pick is listed as the teams’ starter at left tackle but according to NBC Sports he could be included in a deal if the teams need more ammunition to move up in the draft to grab a receiver.
2. Alshon Jeffery
The wide receiver has been the subject of trade rumors since the 2019 season ended and the Eagles would save close to $11 million by trading Jeffery instead of releasing him.
3. Rasul Douglas
With the acquisition of Darius Slay, Douglas could be used as a chess-piece if the Eagles choose to maneuver in the draft. A solid cornerback, Douglas could be the odd man out.
4. Sidney Jones
Jones like Douglas could be included in a draft-night deal, although it seems he’s safe after Howie Roseman’s comments from a few weeks back.
5. Matt Pryor
With the Eagles looking to add offensive line depth, Pryor could be a candidate to be moved. He got some game experience in 2019, but his status is on the roster doesn’t dictate the Eagles needing to hold on to him.
