Eagles depth chart following the 2021 NFL Draft: Defense edition
A look at how Philadelphia’s roster is shaping up.
Mark J. Rebilas-USA TODAY Sports
Now that free agency and the NFL Draft are behind us, let’s take a look at how the Philadelphia Eagles’ 2021 projected depth chart is coming together.
DEFENSIVE END
Here’s hoping this is the season that Graham
finally hits his double-digit sack goal. It’s a huge year for Barnett as he’s set to be a free agent after playing out his fifth-year option this season. Can Barnett still develop into a difference-maker or is he just what he is at this point? Sweat is also facing pressure to perform in order to earn his next NFL contract. The fourth spot behind the top trio is up for grabs. Ostman has more experience but the Eagles could look to go with the younger options in Jackson and/or Bailey. Leo has an uphill battle as a 29-year-old player with no NFL snaps to his name.
