2. Draft a Right Guard to Replace Cam Jurgens

If the Eagles decide to put Jurgens at center next season, the team can use some of their draft capital to select another right guard. Last year, the Eagles drafted former Alabama Crimson Tide offensive lineman Tyler Steen in the third round.

The 23-year-old Steen played 11 games this season and made one start in Week 9 against the Dallas Cowboys. The former Crimson Tide offensive lineman played 62 offensive snaps and only had one penalty (false starts).

Therefore, the Eagles might’ve found their next right guard in Steen. However, do not put it past Howie Roseman to address the position in the NFL Draft.

Graham Barton (Duke), Troy Fautanu (Washington), and Christian Mahogany (Boston College) are some of the top offensive guards in the NFL draft, and you have to believe that Roseman will have his eyes on those guys over the next few weeks.
