Eagles Place Two Offensive Tackles in ESPN Top Five Rankings

The Philadelphia Eagles enter the 2025 NFL season with a strong core, particularly on offense, as they prepare to unveil their Super Bowl LIX championship rings before training camp. ESPN ranked Eagles offensive tackles Lane Johnson and Jordan Mailata among the top five in the NFL, highlighting their distinct backgrounds and relentless pursuit of greatness, while PFSN surprisingly ranked the Eagles' offensive line 11th, citing concerns about depth despite the line producing record-breaking rusher Saquon Barkley and multiple Pro Bowl players. The team has addressed depth issues by acquiring new linemen through trades, free agency, and the draft. The wide receiver duo of DeVonta Smith and AJ Brown, while highly regarded, was ranked third-best in the league by former NFL player Allen Robinson, partly due to the team’s recent emphasis on a powerful rushing attack led by Barkley. Despite offseason roster turnover and coaching changes, including the loss of key defensive and offensive staff, the Eagles remain a top power-ranked team with a largely intact core and high expectations for continued success. Training camp battles are anticipated across several positions as the team looks to maintain its championship-level performance.
