Eagles GM Howie Roseman and head coach Nick Sirianni addressed the media one last time before draft night and the focus was squarely on the two first-round picks and the reasoning behind swapping picks with the Saints.
When Philadelphia traded one of their three first-round picks in the 2022 NFL Draft to the Saints, the assumption was that general manager Howie Roseman was amassing more capital in 2023 to go after a quarterback if Jalen Hurts struggles to repeat his 2021 playoff run.
Asked Wednesday during the Eagles’ pre-draft press conference about such a scenario, Roseman again affirmed his support for Jalen Hurts.
