We're 22 days away from the Titans being on the clock in Round 1 of the 2025 NFL draft from Green Bay, Wisconsin. The Super Bowl champion Eagles have the final pick in the first round, and could draft for depth with few holes on a loaded roster.
ESPN's Field Yates released his latest mock draft, and he has Philadelphia reloading at linebacker and defensive tackle with two standout performers from the SEC.
Eagles pick at No. 32: Jihaad Campbell, LB, Alabama
The 6'3", 235-pounder Campbell has sideline-to-sideline speed and impressive coverage skills while flourishing as a quality pass rusher—he registered five sacks in 2024. Campbell was selected as a second-team All-American by the FWAA, and he also garnered second-team honors from USA Today and The Athletic. Campbell earned first-team All-SEC recognition from the conference coaches and second-team accolades from the Associated Press totaled 117 tackles, good for eighth in Alabama's single-season history led UA, and ranked fifth in the SEC for total tackles, including a team-high 11.5 for loss (-55 yards) and five sacks (-39 yards) added one interception and a fumble recovery to go with two forced fumbles, a pair of pass breakups and two quarterback hurries named a semifinalist for the Bednarik Award which recognizes the top defender in college football.
Analysis from Field Yates:
It hurts me to see Campbell have to wait this long; he's the final prospect on the board who ranks in my top 25. But after recent left shoulder surgery, his health outlook for the start of his career is less clear. But this would be a classic example of the Eagles pouncing on a talented player who fell due to circumstance. Philly struck gold with a no-risk signing of Zack Baun last offseason, and the idea of a linebacker trio eventually composed of Baun, Nakobe Dean (knee) and Campbell is exciting. Campbell had 112 tackles, 11.5 tackles for loss, 5 sacks and an interception last season.
