It took 29 preseason snaps for Eagles to solve their biggest roster question

It’s been a unique offseason for the Philadelphia Eagles, who thanks to GM Howie Roseman’s mass collection of 2026 draft capital, have prioritized the trade market over free agency to fine tune their roster.

In the month of August alone, the Eagles have acquired CB Jakorian Bennett, WR John Metchie III, swing tackle Fred Johnson and QB Sam Howell. They’ve also swapped an assortment of future draft picks, and still have a projected seven Day 3 selections for 2026 that can be used to solve other problem areas on the fringes of the 53-man roster.
