Who Should the Eagles Draft at 23? Breaking Down Every Mock Draft Pick

With 36 days until the NFL Draft, the mock draft machine is running at full speed. Daniel Jeremiah just dropped his 3.0 mock, and he's got the Eagles taking Kadyn Proctor at pick 23. The reaction? Not great.

The Kadyn Proctor Debate

Proctor is an Alabama offensive lineman with Jeff Stoutland's fingerprints all over him. He's a mauler, a physical run blocker, and exactly the type of player the Eagles have historically coveted. Howie Roseman even admitted the team needs to look for "a different style" along the offensive line — using the word "click" to describe the fit they're seeking.

But here's the problem: with the depth of this offensive line class, spending pick 23 on Proctor feels like a reach. Monroe Freeling, Blake Miller, Caleb Lomu, Spencer Fano, and even Arizona State's standout are all in the conversation. The Eagles have options, and that's exactly why Proctor at 23 feels premature.

Monroe Freeling: The Dream Scenario

If there's one name that keeps rising in Eagles draft circles, it's Monroe Freeling. The offensive tackle is climbing boards fast, and there's real sentiment that he's the best fit for Philadelphia's offensive line philosophy. Some analysts would even support the Eagles trading up to grab him.

The case is simple: Freeling has the athleticism, the technique, and the ceiling to be a franchise tackle. In a draft class loaded with offensive linemen, he's the one who best matches what the Eagles want to become.

Blake Miller's Case

Clemson's Blake Miller is another name worth watching. He's been a popular mock pick to Philadelphia, and his tape shows a player who can step in immediately. The Eagles need youth on the offensive line, and Miller provides that with a high floor.

What About Edge Rushers?

Some mocks have the Eagles going defense — specifically edge rusher. But the names being mocked (like Akheem Mesidor from Miami) come with red flags. Mesidor turns 25 in April, making him the same age as Jalen Carter. For a team that typically wants young, high-upside prospects, that's a concern.

The smart money is on the Eagles going offensive line at 23. The question isn't whether — it's which one.
