Philadelphia Eagles: 7-Round 2019 mock draft version 1.0

Round 5: Alabama State OT Tytus Howard

As previously discussed, the offensive line could quickly become an issue for the Eagles if the team finds out that Peters or Kelce (or both) decide to call it a NFL career. Rightfully so, Philadelphia would completely understand if the veterans were leaning in this direction since one can only imagine what their bodies have gone through all these years.

Without question, Eagles fans would love to see both of these stars return for at least one more season since Pederson’s squad will be viewed as another strong contender in the NFC to make a run at the Super Bowl again.

But even if these two decided to give it another go, Philadelphia knows they will need to figure out a game plan for both Peters and Kelce at some point since the longer they hold off taking care of business, the more challenging it may be to find replacements.

Taking players from a smaller school like Alabama State can be risky at times when it comes to the challenge of adjusting to the NFL, but there’s a reason Tytus Howard has been catching the attention of so many scouts already.

In the right system with his physical style of play, Howard could one day develop into quite the NFL star.
