Eagles' 2026 Draft Class Fails to Deliver, Urging GM Roseman to Reassess Strategy

The Philadelphia Eagles' general manager Howie Roseman is facing criticism as the 2026 NFL Draft class has not provided the necessary support for the team. With the roster in need of immediate reinforcements, the current rookie class has failed to make an impact.

Roseman has a history of successful drafts, often selecting players from top college programs like Georgia and Alabama, which have produced ready-to-compete athletes. However, this year's draft strategy appears to have deviated from that approach, leading to a lack of immediate contributions.

While some players like Makai Lemon show promise, others, such as tight end Eli Stowers, have not seen the field. The choice of a fifth-round quarterback, Cole Payton, who is currently playing special teams, has raised concerns about the team's backup quarterback situation. Critics argue that Roseman should return to selecting proven talent from established programs to rebuild the team's competitive edge.
