TRADE CONSIDERATIONS

The Eagles ultimately traded picks No. 146 and No. 190 into ... No. 196, No. 200, No. 210, No. 233, a 2021 fifth-round pick from the Dallas Cowboys, and Marquise Goodwin.

UDFA

The Eagles obviously aren’t done adding to their roster; they’ll be signing more players in undrafted free agency. Philadelphia has been able to find some UDFA contributors in recent years such as T.J. Edwards, Anthony Rush, Josh Adams, Corey Clement, etc. The hope is that Howie Roseman can find more diamonds in the rough.
