Let’s get to the Philadelphia Eagles news and links …
NFL Offensive Rookie of the year predictions: 5 best bets for 2026 – SB NationMakai Lemon, WR, Philadelphia Eagles. I think the rest of the league is going to be very upset the Philadelphia Eagles landed Lemon with the No. 20 overall pick, famously trading up to steal him away from the Pittsburgh Steelers. Lemon is a dynamic playmaker who is capable of delivering highlight-reel plays on a weekly basis. The USC product is priced at 15-1. The only thing I’m worried about is whether he will get enough total touches because he likely won’t be a No.1 receiver right away. So, his numbers may not be as big as some of wide receivers. But expect instant excellence.

Eagles rookie Makai Lemon attends Open Door Abuse Awareness and Prevention football combine to inspire the youth – InquirerEagles wide receiver Makai Lemon has officially become a part of the Philadelphia community. As the invited guest for the Open Door Abuse Awareness and Prevention football combine for young athletes in honor of Juneteenth on Saturday, attendees welcomed Lemon with both words and actions, rushing to gates at Mastery Charter School to greet Philly’s newest Eagle. Author and social media personality Wallace Peeples, more commonly known as Wallo267, was also a guest at the event. The event combined athletic training with teaching emotional skills and was held at Mastery Charter for youth and high school football players.
Jihaad Campbell is changing his jersey number – BGNPhiladelphia Eagles linebacker Jihaad Campbell is officially changing his jersey number from No. 30 to No. 11 ahead of his second NFL season, according to SportsRadio 94WIP’s Eliot Shorr-Parks.
Eagles rookie NFL player comparisons: EDGE Keyshawn James-Newby – PhillyVoiceJames-Newby is an undersized (6’2, 238) edge rusher who ran a 4.53 40 at New Mexico’s pro day. He had a productive college career, with 33.5 career sacks, including 10.5 in 2024 and 9 in 2025. James-Newby is pretty far down the depth chart among the Eagles’ edge rushers, but plays with great effort and a non-stop motor, which means he’ll have a chance to make the roster as a special teams contributor. The player he reminds me of is another Eagles seventh-round pick in Patrick Johnson.
What If…Trent Dilfer – Iggles BlitzThe Eagles had Randall Cunningham and Bubby Brister as their QBs at that point. Cunningham, who had just turned 31, was still a great talent, but had season ending injuries in 1991 and 1993 so durability was a major concern. He had been inconsistent when he did play in 1992 and 1993. And he had only one playoff win at that point, a wild card victory over the Saints. Brister was a solid backup, nothing more. Lurie saw this and decided the Eagles needed to be bold. They needed a young franchise QB to build around. The Rams held the fifth pick in the draft. The Eagles had the 14th and 29th picks in the first round. Lurie had John Wooten, the team’s key personnel guy, call the Rams and propose a trade. The Rams would get Cunningham and both first round picks. The Eagles would get the fifth pick and were going to draft Trent Dilfer.

Roob’s Observations: Will Jeffrey Simmons’ deal help Eagles sign Jalen Carter? – NBCSPTYLER STEEN IS ACTUALLY GOOD: I think it’s natural for people to think of Tyler Steen as the weak link on the Eagles’ offensive line because he’s the only starter who hasn’t been a Pro Bowler or all-pro. But Steen was very good last year, and his Pro Football Focus overall grade of 73.4 was 14th-highest of 67 guards who played at least 500 snaps last year. His 73.4 run blocking grade was 11th-highest, and his 75.4 pass blocking grade was 10th-highest. He was one of only four guards who graded out at 73 or higher both run and pass blocking, along with eight-time Pro Bowler Quenton Nelson of the Colts, Damien Lewis of the Panthers and the Titans’ Peter Skoronski. Steen is solid.
Philadelphia Eagles’ Uar Bernard says Nigeria has NFL talent in abundance – ESPNPhiladelphia Eagles rookie Uar Bernard believes Nigeria is filled with athletes capable of reaching the NFL, and wants the league to do more to create pathways for these young players to be discovered and developed. The defensive tackle, who became the first player drafted directly from the NFL’s International Player Pathway program when he was picked earlier this year, said greater investment in coaching and grassroots development could unlock a vast pool of untapped talent, even potentially better than him. “[The league should] create that football awareness in Nigeria, have coaches there, have academies there,” Bernard said on the Eagles social media platforms. “I believe that Nigeria have most of the talents in the world. If they have more opportunities they’ll do better than me.” Bernard’s own journey from Nigeria to the NFL is already proof of concept.
3 free agents the Cowboys could add for depth after minicamp – Blogging The BoysHonorable Mention: Jadeveon Clowney. Considering what the edge rushers have shown and where they were last season, the Cowboys should be feeling better about where this group is now. The Cowboys plucked Rashan Gary off the trade market for a day three draft pick, and his addition fortifies the edge rusher group for the Cowboys. Still, you can never have too many pass rushers. Dallas has high hopes for Malachi Lawrence and Donovan Ezeiruaku to step up with their combination of pass rush moves and athleticism. However, Dallas should still insulate the roster with more help, and they could run things back with Jadeveon Clowney. Jerry Jones has made comments about wanting to bring back the veteran, and Clowney led the team in sacks last year. By adding Clowney, it eases the pressure on the young guys to deliver right now and lets them develop at a more realistic pace. Clowney has enough in the tank to solidify the pass rusher rotation.
Cowboys’ Shavon Revel enters Year 2 healthy with long-term goal: Become ‘the best cornerback in the league’ – NFL.comCowboys cornerback Shavon Revel Jr.‘s rookie season was all about getting back to himself after tearing his ACL as a senior at East Carolina University. His second season will allow him to provide a foundation for a longer-term goal: rising to the top of the NFL’s cornerbacking elite. “I am going to be, someday, the best cornerback in the league,” Revel said, via the Fort Worth Star-Telegram’s Nick Harris. “That’s just how I look at it, and I have the confidence to say it. At the end of the day, I got to work.”

Commanders CB Mike Sainristil poised for 3rd-year leap – survey results – Hogs HavenSainristil should thrive under new DC Daronte Jones because of an expected schematic shift that should perfectly maximize his elite read-and-react instincts. Jones’ defensive philosophy focuses heavily on “multiplicity” and zone principles that allow DBs to play with their eyes directly on the quarterback, which should heavily favor Sainristil, who excelled during his collegiate career at Michigan as an anticipatory, quick-twitch defender capable of jumping routes and hunting turnovers. Furthermore, with Jones’ focus on positional fluidity, Sainristil’s unique inside-outside versatility should give him the flexibility to manipulate matchups from both the slot & boundary and keep opposing QBs guessing. [BLG Note: Every new coordinator hire is the next best thing, aren’t they?]
NY Giants’ new offensive line coach aims to ‘build their toolbox’ – Big Blue ViewNo. 10 overall pick Francis ‘Sisi’ Mauigoa will be the starting right guard for the New York Giants. A 23-year-old rookie starting at that spot is a big change for a Giants’ team that had Greg Van Roten, whose pro career began in 2012, at right guard for the past two seasons. That, though, is not the only big change for the Giants on the offensive line. Mike Bloomgren is the team’s new offensive line coach, replacing the popular Carmen Bricillo, who did well in that role over the past two seasons. The Giants’ offensive line was 15th in the NFL last season using the Pro Football and Sports Network Impact Score as a measuring stick, its best standing since being 16th in 2019.
