Eagles Eye Malaki Starks, Consider Draft Trade-Up

Philadelphia Eagles general manager Howie Roseman is known for his aggressive draft strategies, which have brought both successes and notable misses since 2020. Roseman's approach includes stockpiling draft picks, prioritizing character, and maintaining a strict policy against players with histories of violence against women. He has also used draft capital to trade for proven players like A.J. Brown, contributing to the team's competitive edge. As the 2025 NFL Draft approaches, the Eagles are hosting a range of first- and second-round prospects on pre-draft visits, aiming to identify targets for this and possibly future drafts. Georgia safety Malaki Starks has emerged as their top Day 1 target to address a need in the secondary, with a trade-up from the No. 32 pick under consideration. Despite holding only three top-100 picks in 2025, Roseman's bold moves and strategic vision keep the Eagles in focus as draft contenders.
