Philadelphia Eagles complete 2023 NFL draft class

Here is the Seven player Philadelphia Eagles 2023 NFL draft class

The 2023 NFL draft has been completed, and the Eagles came away with seven selections.

Philadelphia made four trades after the NFL draft kicked off Thursday night.

The Eagles acquired a 2023 third-round pick (No. 66 overall) from the Arizona Cardinals in exchange for a 2023 third-round pick (No. 94 overall) and a 2024 fifth-round pick.

The trade with Arizona stemmed from a tampering dispute over Jonathan Gannon that was resolved shortly before the draft.

Philadelphia then traded a 2023 second-round pick (No. 62 overall) to the Texans in exchange for a 2023 third-round pick (No. 65 overall), a 2023 sixth-round pick (No. 188 overall), and a 2023 seventh-round pick (No. 230 overall) on Day 2.

On Saturday, the Eagles traded a 2024 third-round pick to the Texans for a 2023 fourth-round pick (No. 105 overall).

After selecting Kelee Ringo, the Eagles agreed to trade a 2025 fourth-round pick and a 2023 seventh-round pick (No. 219 overall) to the Lions in exchange for RB D’Andre Swift and a 2023 seventh-round pick (No. 249 overall).

The Eagles have received high marks from most insiders, and according to Kent Lee Platte of RAS.com, Philadelphia had one of the most explosive classes in the draft.

Carolina Panthers: Relative Athletic Scores for 2021 NFL draft picks

Let’s take a look at the Relative Athletic Scores for each Panthers draft pick this year.

Panthers general manager Scott Fitterer went into the 2021 NFL draft with a clear plan. Trade down for more picks, target positions of need and fill them with the best athletes available. We can question some of the individual decisions (especially passing on a QB at the top), but overall fans should be pleased with the results.

Most of all, the instinct to select high-quality athletes should pay off for this franchise in the long run. Let’s take a look at the Relative Athletic Scores for each Panthers draft pick this year.

CB Jaycee Horn: 9.99

Forget Justin Fields for a minute and just enjoy Horn’s remarkable profile. Horn posted excellent scores across the board, including size, speed and explosiveness. That will help a lot as he has to cover superstar receivers like Julio Jones and Chris Godwin around the NFC South.

WR Terrace Marshall Jr.: 9.77

Marshall also has great RAS numbers, especially a 39-inch vertical. The Panthers haven’t had those kind of hops in a package this size in a long time.

OT Brady Christensen: 9.84

Perhaps the most critical pick of the draft class, Carolina traded up a few spots in the third round to get Christensen. While there are some concerns about his size – especially his arm length – he’s a top-notch athlete for his position, including elite speed, agility and strength.

TE Tommy Tremble: 8.91

Tremble also fits the mold for having poor size but a good overall profile.

RB Chuba Hubbard: 8.44

Hubbard’s agility scores aren’t what you’d expect for a running back. However, they don’t seem to slow him down when it comes to adding yards after contact and everything else lines up.

DT Daviyon Nixon: 8.38

Nixon is another quality athlete for his position. His leaping ability and shuttle time aren’t likely to matter a whole lot.

CB Keith Taylor: 6.54

There’s a big dropoff from Nixon to the rest of the draft class, but that’s mostly to be expected in the later rounds of the draft. On paper, Taylor isn’t fast or agile, but he is very tall at least.

G Deonte Brown: 1.48

Brown’s RAS scores might look concerning, but Godzilla doesn’t crush your city with his athleticism, after all. It’s all about size and sheer destructive power – the same selling points for Brown. He will still be able to knock defenders off the line of scrimmage and open up lanes for Hubbard and Christian McCaffrey while keeping Sam Darnold clean from interior rushers. Ultimately, that’s what’s important.

WR Shi Smith: 6.79

Smith is a bit undersized for the NFL, but his quickness and explosiveness are important qualities to have for a slot receiver.

LS Thomas Fletcher: 6.74

Sure, why not?

DT Phil Hoskins: 6.67

Hoskins has an interesting blend of traits, here. For a seventh-round DT pick it’s hard to complain about a lack of agility.

Overall, this is an extremely athletic draft class, with the one notable exception. Hats off to Fitterer, head coach Matt Rhule and the rest of the scouting department for their work.
