The draft starts in Mobile, Alabama and Saturday will officially start the process with kickoff from the 2022 Reese’s Senior Bowl at Hancock Whitney Stadium, on the campus of South Alabama.

The game will kick off at 2:30 p.m. ET and will air live on NFL Network.

The Eagles hold a good amount of draft capital with three first-round picks and the week saw all of the key personnel and staffers make the trip to Alabama to scout some of the top seniors and draft-eligible players.

Philadelphia has several positions of need and 10 players with key skillsets stood out the most.

Senior Bowl notes: Eagles’ GM Howie Roseman keeping a close eye on QB Malik Willis

The draft starts in Mobile, but the opportunity to change a decision-makers’ mind can also be found in dynamic senior bowl performances.

During a nasty rainstorm on Wednesday, Liberty quarterback Malik Willis put on a show in front of every NFL, including Eagles general manager Howie Roseman, who reportedly was enthralled by the big-armed quarterback according to Football Outsiders.

Liberty quarterback Malik Willis has the best arm in Mobile, and it’s not close. He rifles off medium-range passes, both from the pocket and on the run, with little effort. Willis doesn’t have an off-speed pitch, however, and his accuracy was scattershot on Tuesday. Still, some teams are about to have visions of Trey Lance-meets-Josh Allen dancing in their heads. Some Eagle-eyed observers noted Howie Roseman paying particular attention to Willis.

Philadelphia has three first-round picks, and the assumption has always been that a mature Kenny Pickett would be the target if the Eagles did decide to go the quarterback route.

Willis offers the rawest potential out of the group, but if properly harnessed, he could become the NFC’s version of Josh Allen, something a lot of Eagles fans covet.

Roseman had previously stated that Hurts has earned the right to be the team’s starter in 2022, but things change and Willis appears to have left a big impression on the Eagles brass.
