The Eagles build through the trenches 80% of most drafts, and as the team prepares for Round 1 two weeks from tonight, they had another Texas A&M pass rusher in the building.
After losing Josh Sweat (Cardinals), Milton Williams (Patriots), and Brandon Graham (retired), the team could be looking to continue getting younger at the position after selecting Nolan Smith and Jalyx Hunt in back-to-back years.
The top 30 predraft visits are all the rage right now, and Philadelphia has Aggies star edge rusher Nic Scourton at the NovaCare Complex.

Scourton was one of the highest-rated transfers ahead of the 2024 season due to his combination of size and speed. Standing at 6-4, 280 pounds, he had 10 sacks and 50 tackles in his 2023 season at Purdue and finished his career at Texas A&M with five sacks, a forced fumble, 37 tackles, and two passes defended.
Scourton led the Aggies with 14 tackles for loss and 5.0 sacks this past season. He plays a physical brand of football on the edge, has the skill-set to play all three downs, and his 90.8 Pro Football Focus pass-rush grade since 2023 tied for eighth among all Power Four edge defenders.
