Here is a rundown of the Eagles' nine picks, but you can expect the Eagles to find a way to gather some more on draft weekend. They always do.
The NFL draft is April 26-27-28.
Round 1: 15
Round 2: 46 and 51.
No. 51 was acquired from Arizona in the Kevin Kolb trade.
Round 3: 88
Acquired from Houston in the DeMeco Ryans trade.
Round 4: 114
Round 5: 153
Round 6: 172, 194 and 200
No. 172 from Indianapolis in Winston Justice trade; No. 194 from Denver in Joe Mays trade and No. 200 from New England in Tracy White trade.
Round 7: None
Les Bowen's quick take is that the Eagles will select a defensive tackle in the first round and use their second-round picks on a quarterback and a big wide receiver.
