Looking at 20 options for Eagles on Day 3 of the 2026 NFL Draft

The Eagles have so far made three picks in the 2026 NFL Draft and are scheduled to have three picks on Day 3.

Although they’re going to have to wait a while. The Eagles won’t pick until the fifth round on Day 3. They have pick 178 in the fifth round, 197 in the sixth and 244 in the seventh.

Here are 20 players who might make sense:

Dani Dennis-Sutton, Edge, Penn State: The Eagles don’t draft a ton of Penn State players but Dennis-Sutton (6-6, 256) would be a nice complement in their edge rusher room. He has the frame and athleticism the Eagles should like and he had 8 1/2 sacks in each of the last two seasons. He also tested very well in the pre-draft process and visited the Jefferson Health Training Complex.

Jalon Kilgore, DB, South Carolina: The Eagles brought Kilgore (6-1, 210) in for a visit during the pre-draft process and there’s plenty to like about him. While he played nickel corner at South Carolina, many project him to be a safety in the NFL. He’s big and fast and super athletic. If the Eagles draft him, it’ll be up to their coaching staff to turn him into a real safety.

Garrett Nussmeier, QB, LSU: This has nothing to do with Jalen Hurts but the Eagles are always looking to add QBs and they know this one well. Nussmeier is the son of former QBs coach Doug Nussmeier. Things didn’t go well for Garrett at LSU in 2025 but he was injured. He could be a good pro QB.

Taylen Green, QB, Arkansas: There’s a ton of intrigue about Green as a developmental quarterback. He’s 6-6, 227 pounds and is insanely athletic. He ran a 4.36 at the combine with a vertical jump of 43 1/2 inches and a broad of 11-2. His stats took a dip in 2025 but he has the raw tools. 

Haynes King, QB, Georgia Tech: King is an older prospect at 25 but he was a great dual threat at the collegiate level and played with an admirable toughness. His OC at Shrine Bowl was Eagles OC Sean Mannion. 

Ephesians Prysock, CB, Washington: Prysock’s teammate Tacario Davis went in the third round but Prysock is still available. Like Davis, Prysock also has great length at 6-3, 196 pounds and had two good seasons at Washington. He didn’t have many INTs in college but he has the frame and the 4.45 speed to be worth a Day 3 pick.

Zakee Wheatley, S, Penn State: Wheatley, 24, was a two-year starter at Penn State with a long frame and athleticism. He’s a good athlete and position versatile.

VJ Payne, S, Kansas State: Payne (6-3, 206) was a three-year starter at K-State with 42 starts under his belt. He’s big and long (80-inch wingspan) and ran a 4.40 at the combine.

Kamari Ramsey, S, USC: Ramsey, 21, began his career at UCLA and finished up at USC. In total, he was a three-year starter who played both nickel and safety in college. The Eagles have shown interest in players with that combination.

Beau Stephens, G, Iowa: Stephens (6-6, 315) started 34 games in college and both left and right guard. He doesn’t have a long frame or next-level athleticism, but he’s powerful and experienced and could be a nice backup who could eventually fight for a job. 

Anez Cooper, G, Miami: The Eagles already added one Miami offensive lineman so maybe they’ll add another. Cooper was the Hurricanes’ starting right guard for the last three seasons and held down the right side of that line with first-round pick Francis Mauigoa.

Logan Taylor, G, Boston College: While Taylor (607, 314) played a bit of tackle in a pinch at BC, he projects as a guard in the NFL who could offers some position versatility.

Isaiah World, OT, Oregon: The Eagles already drafted a tackle but at some point, the value would be too great for the Eagles to overlook. World was once expected to become a first-round pick but that didn’t happen and then he tore his ACL in the playoffs. But World has tools worth developing and would represent value on Day 3.

Andre Fuller, CB, Toledo: The Eagles added Fuller’s teammate Quinyon Mitchell in the first round a couple years ago and they could go back to the well. Fuller, 24, became a starter in 2025 for the first time and had a nice season.

Harold Perkins Jr., LB, LSU: Perkins (6-1, 220) is an undersized off-ball linebacker with great athleticism. He started 36 games at LSU.

Nicholas Singleton, RB, Penn State: Singleton was a four-year starter at Penn State, who saw his workload decrease in his senior season. But he’s big and fast and would be a fun Day 3 pickup.

Jordan Van Den Berg, DT, Georgia Tech: A native of South Africa, van den Berg is a good athlete who spent time at Penn State before transferring to Georgia Tech. He was first-team All-ACC in 2025 with 3 sacks and 11 TFLs.

Kaleb Proctor, DT, Southeastern Louisiana: Proctor (6-2, 291) is an undersized 3-technique from a small school who has athleticism and traits.

Max Llewellyn, Edge, Iowa: If the Eagles still want to add a bigger-body edge rusher, Llewellyn (6-6, 258) would fit. He became a full-time starter in 2025 and had 6 1/2 sacks and 9 1/2 TFLs.

Jude Bowry, OL, Boston College: Bowry (6-5, 314) played left and right tackle in college but might need to move to guard in the NFL.
