Eagles clinch 19th pick … With their loss in Tampa Bay in today’s early game, we can confirm that Philadelphia’s own pick at the 2022 draft will be the 19th. That will actually be the Eagles’ third pick, assuming no trades, in the opening round as they also have the 15th and 16th picks acquired from Miami and Indianapolis. What the rather dismal loss to the Buccaneers could also confirm, at least in the minds of a lot of folks connected with the Eagles is that while he’s a great athlete, QB Jalen Hurts may simply lack the arm talent to take the franchise very deep in the playoffs. And with three top 20 picks in this year’s opening round, they will have some ammunition to make some moves if they so desire.
