If you were making a roster with one player from every NFL team, which Eagles would you want, Jalen Carter at defensive tackle, A.J. Brown at wide receiver, Lane Johnson at right tackle, Saquon Barkley at running back or maybe Jalen Hurts at quarterback or Zack Baun at linebacker? The options are varied and speak to the strength of the Eagles' roster. Zach Berman, Fran Duffy and Bo Wulf each only get one Eagle while trying to build a roster with one player per team. Patrick Mahomes, Chris Jones or Trent McDuffie from the Chiefs? Penei Sewell, Jahmyr Gibbs or Aidan Hutchinson from the Lions? Jonah Elliss, Alex Singleton or Mario Goodrich from the Broncos?

The least you deserve for winning the Super Bowl as head coach is a hefty, fat stack of cash and the promise of guaranteed employment as head coach.

Join Zach Berman, Anthony Gargano and Bo Wulf for all the action, as we all plan our falls.
Jalen Carter, Zack Baun, Jalen Hurts, Cooper DeJean, Saquon Barkley, Reed Blankenship, A.J. Brown, DeVonta Smith, Dallas Goedert but NOT Dylan McMahon compile a large part of the Eagles roster that will be charged with defending a Super Bowl title.

Unlike 2022 and 2024 when the Eagles made the Super Bowl thanks in part to the benefit of an easy schedule, the slate of opponents in 2025 looks to be their toughest in recent memory. So as Cooper DeJean, Jalen Hurts, DeVonta Smith, A.J. Brown, Zack Baun, Quinyon Mitchell, Jalen Carter and E.J. Jenkins look to reclaim glory, the road will be even more difficult. Deniz Selman explains why as he joins Fran Duffy, Zach Berman and Bo Wulf for a hardcore foursome.
