As we are bombarded with Mock Drafts and Big Boards leading up to Draft Day this Thursday, what the Eagles need, have, and believe sometimes gets lost in the shuffle. In the latest episode of the Philly Front Office Podcast, I do my best to take stock of the Eagles as an organization to see what they are thinking. This means looking at the Best Player Available strategy and mixing it with the positional needs, positional values, and taking into account 2027 and all of the extra picks that should be coming in. The Eagles are loaded and don’t have any gaping holes. It feels like Howie is going to make Pittsburgh feel like Las Vegas this weekend.

Episode 47: It's FINALLY June 1 in the NFL Philly Front Office

I recorded this originally on Friday, but then it disappeared. That worked out nicely though considering so much happened in the last few days including the Myles Garrett to the Rams trade just a few minutes before I went live. While I get into the Post June 1 of it all, this week's feature is the labor negotiations in Major League Baseball as well as lottery reform in the NBA. I'm very bullish on both. News Eagles AJ Brown Day! Everyone just looks…happier Phillies Cristopher Sanchez vs Jacob Misiorowski vs Orel Hershiser Adolis Garcia…YIKES Sixers Jared McCain vs. Julian Champagnie Newest President of Basketball Operations, Mike Gansey I don't hate the Knicks, but GO SPURS Flyers Vladar Extension? Don't think about Torts, Root for Rod the Bod I'm very happy with how the Flyers handled Carter Hart and that's the end of it This Week in Philly Sports History June 2, 1989 – The Phillies trade for John Kruk and the story is bonkers. Very Krukian
