Our Draft Meter has nailed the last four Eagles picks. Who will it be this year?
Each year The Inquirer’s Eagles beat writers rank prospects who are most likely to get drafted by the Eagles, based upon a Draft Meter scale from 1-10, with 10 being the highest possibility — and each year they’ve nailed it. Let’s look at four past players they’ve got correct and four prospects for this year’s draft.
2024: Quinyon Mitchell
Quinyon Mitchell had the highest chances of getting picked by the Eagles in last year's Draft Meter, with an 8.5 average score. The Eagles selected Mitchell with the 22nd overall pick and has already become a vital piece of the defense.
2023: Nolan Smith
In 2023’s Draft Meter, linebacker Nolan Smith had the highest chances of getting picked by the Eagles, with an 8.3 average score. Jalen Carter was second on the list, with an average score of 7.3.
2022: Jordan Davis
In 2022, our writers gave Jordan Davis the highest chances of getting drafted by the Eagles, with an 8.3 average score. The Eagles used the 13th overall pick on the Georgia defensive tackle.
2021: DeVonta Smith
In 2021’s Draft Meter, wide receiver DeVonta Smith had the highest chances of getting drafted by the Eagles, with 7.75 average score. The Eagles selected the Heisman Trophy winner with the 10th overall pick.
2025’s No. 1 prospect: Walter Nolen
In this year's Draft Meter, defensive tackle Walter Nolen has the highest chances of getting drafted by the Eagles, with an 8.3 average score. If he falls to the Eagles, or if the Eagles move up, Nolen would be an ideal interior rusher.
