PHILADELPHIA - The Eagles have plenty of in-house options available at offensive tackle as they finally move away from the Jason Peters era and at least contemplate life after Lane Johnson, their three-time Pro Bowl right tackle who turns 31 in May and played just seven games in 2020 due to two ankle surgeries, the last of which was a more significant procedure.
Johnson recently told SI.com s Eagle Maven he expects to be completely cleared in about a month and is looking forward to any potential offseason work which is still up in the air as the NFL and the Players Association continue to haggle over COVID-19 precautions.

Less than two months until Draft Day!
I do want to plug the most recent episode of From the Bleachers on BGN Radio, where I do a live seven-round mock draft. We’re going to making greater use of our YouTube channel going forward and my podcasts will appear on there. Subscribe and check it out!
Let’s get after it.
: Where do you draw the line with trading out of the No. 6 draft spot? Who needs to be off the board for this to happen in your eyes?
I get the wisdom of trading down. For an Eagles team lacking talent so badly, the more lottery tickets and throws at the dartboard the better, right?
