The Philadelphia Eagles addressed their defense on Day 1 of the 2025 NFL Draft and traded up to grab Alabama linebacker Jihaad Campell at No. 31 overall.
Entering Day 2, the Eagles still have plenty of other needs to address, but with just one pick in Round 2 and Round 3, they are going to need to choose wisely.
In this mock draft, I have the Birds grabbing tight end Dallas Goedert and right guard Mekhi Becton's replacements.
Round 2, Pick 64: TE Elijah Arroyo, Miami
Elijah Arroyo offers impressive versatility as both a pass-catcher and a run-game blocker—traits the Eagles will be seeking in a potential successor to Dallas Goedert.
He heads into the draft following a breakout 2024 season, where he caught 35 of 47 targets for 590 yards, averaging an impressive 16.9 yards per reception and scoring seven touchdowns.
Round 3, Pick 96: OT Anthony Belton, NC State
NC State star tackle Anthony Belton (6-foot-6 and 336 pounds) spent the majority of his college career at left tackle but also has the skills to play right tackle or guard.
Before entering the draft, Belton appeared in all 12 games, starting 11 of them at left tackle in 2024, where he logged 741 total snaps in 2024. He allowed just 12 quarterback pressures, including three sacks.
The Eagles are hurting at right guard after losing Mekhi Becton in NFL free agency, but knowing exactly what Philly's o-line coach Jeff Stoutland is capable of doing with big and versatile linemen, Belton could be the perfect replacement.
It also helps that the Eagles did their extensive homework on Belton ahead of the draft with a Top-30 visit.
