Philadelphia Eagles NFL Mock Draft Roundup 1.0

Overshadowed by all the returning defensive talent in Eugene, Tuioti doesn't get his fair share of the hype in the media, but scouts are excited about his polished game and physical nature. Violent at the point of attack with a dense, powerful frame, Tuioti sets the edge with the best of them and is a proven sack artist as well, recording 17 QB takedowns in three years of college play.

Another absurd athlete from Georgia to fill out Howie Roseman's defense.

Smith is a high-level athlete at LT who shows natural talent for moving defenders in the run game and anchoring against power. While he needs to sharpen his technique against nuanced speed rushers, his physical tools provide a high floor for development.

Bolden is an instinctive and intelligent safety, which is why he's tasked with being the communicator on the back end of Georgia's defense. Despite his slight frame (6-foot, 185 pounds), Bolden isn't afraid to run the alley and crash down in run support. He's able to play multiple secondary spots and has good ball skills. The Eagles lost Reed Blankenship in free agency and didn't pick a safety until Round 7 last week, so Bolden could be a nice fit.

It was hard to study the Oregon defense last season without seeing No. 44 disrupting plays, using his blend of strength and swarming speed.

After recording 9.5 sacks in his lone season in Oxford, Umanmielen followed Lane Kiffin to Baton Rouge. A twitchy mover with an explosive first step and closing speed, he'll look to build on the most productive season of his career.

The Eagles need long-term solutions on the edge. They have already taken a step in the right direction by landing Jonathan Greenard in a $100 million deal via trade. Holmes was an integral piece of one of the most ferocious defensive lines in college football last season. He will have more to prove in 2026 without David Bailey and Lee Hunter drawing attention, but Holmes projects as a high-level run defender at a minimum.
