How Many Picks Do the Eagles Have in the 2025 NFL Draft?
Currently, the Eagles have seven picks in the 2025 NFL Draft.
Philadelphia recently traded three picks (a third-rounder and two seventh-rounders) to the Washington Commanders for Jahan Dotson, but they also acquired a fifth-round pick as part of the trade.
The Eagles obtained an extra third-round pick from the Miami Dolphins in exchange for a 2024 fourth-round pick that the Dolphins spent on running back Jaylen Wright.
In Round 4, the Eagles and Lions essentially swapped picks in a saga that started with a D’Andre Swift trade to the Eagles and ended with a Lions trade-up from the fifth round to the fourth in the 2024 NFL Draft.

The Eagles also acquired an extra fifth-round selection from the Houston Texans when the latter traded up to the fourth round to take Ohio State tight end Cade Stover.
Round 7 is where it gets complicated.
The Eagles had the rights to four seventh-round picks from the Saints, Broncos, Falcons, and their own. Denver’s selection was acquired in a pick-swap for tight end Albert Okwuegbunam Jr., which also cost Philadelphia its original sixth-round pick.
The Eagles would have kept two of these seventh-round picks, but now they will both be shipped to Washington as part of the Dotson trade. And the two most favorable of the four picks will be sent to the Pittsburgh Steelers as part of the terms of the Kenny Pickett trade.
What Are the Eagles’ Biggest Needs in 2025?
There aren’t too many glaring needs on the Eagles’ current roster, but a few stand out on defense. The linebacker situation is still very precarious, and when Devin White’s one-year contract expires, that will only remain the case.
At cornerback, veteran Darius Slay Jr.’s status opposite Quinyon Mitchell is worth monitoring, as is the health of nickel defender Avonte Maddox.

On offense, Philadelphia’s third wide receiver alongside A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith remains a concern, and the interior offensive line is still settling.
The 2025 free agency period should bring more needs to the forefront.
Not long ago, the Eagles selected edge rusher Nolan Smith in Round 1, but EDGE could once again become a need with Josh Sweat and Brandon Graham on expiring contracts. The same goes for defensive tackle with Milton Williams.
From a bird’s-eye view, linebacker, edge rusher, wide receiver, and cornerback could be the top needs on Philadelphia’s board come next April.
And although it’s unlikely the Eagles will move on from Jalen Hurts, his performance after a down year in 2023 is also worth monitoring.
