Many experts have uttered that sentence after the Philadelphia Eagles selected 10 players in the 2025 NFL Draft. This particular one came from one of the NFL’s most recognized and prominent rising draft experts.
ESPN NFL Draft expert Matt Miller shared his top 100 picks for the NFL Draft, every selection, and all seven rounds. These picks are based on the best picks, steals, and team fits. Miller was not shy about adding Eagles rookies on the list, with four making the final cut.
I like Campbell’s fit in Philadelphia as much as I dig the 16-spot value the Eagles got by selecting him in this spot. We just saw Zack Baun have an All-Pro season as a triple-threat linebacker in Philly. Campbell is in the same mold but is arguably faster and stronger with higher pass-rush potential. He’ll need some time to recover from surgery to repair a torn labrum, but no other team develops front-seven defenders like the Eagles.
Campbell finished 15th on Miller’s top prospects list. He had a stellar 2024 campaign with the Alabama Crimson Tide as he led the team with 117 tackles, 11.5 tackles for loss, five sacks, and two forced fumbles as a first-team All-SEC selection. Campbell finished third among linebackers at the NFL Combine in fastest 40-yard dash times with a 4.52-second run.
Robinson was one of the best value adds in the draft, as the Eagles got a player ranked just outside my top 50 early in Round 4. Robinson is more accomplished as a run stopper than a pass rusher, but the Eagles are as good at developing defensive linemen as anyone in the NFL. Their tutelage makes me confident of Robinson’s higher grade coming to fruition.”
Miller ranked Robinson at number 51 in his final overall prospects rankings. Robinson was selected as a third-team All-Big Ten member with Nebraska as he racked up 37 tackles, 12.5 tackles for loss, seven sacks, four pass deflections, and a forced fumble in 13 games. Next Gen stats had him with the ninth highest overall score of the defensive tackles at the combine with 73.
“Mukuba was further down my board because of concerns about his hard-hitting style combined with a smaller frame. But he could start in Week 1 for the Eagles because of his range, playmaking traits and versatile alignment skills.”
In Miller’s final prospect rankings list, Mukuba finished at number 86. After three seasons in Clemson, Mukuba caused havoc at Texas as a third-team All-SEC selection as he was tied for fourth in the nation with five interceptions while adding 69 tackles, seven pass breakups, four tackles for loss, and a forced fumble. He was tied for fifth among safeties at the NFL Combine in the 40-yard dash time with 4.45 seconds.
“A Georgia defender to the Eagles? Those tend to work out. Mondon is fast and agile, and he has sideline-to-sideline range. He needs to work on diagnosing speed, but he’ll get the space and time in Philly to do that.”
Miller had Mondon ranked ahead of Mukuba as the 79th-best overall prospect in the draft. Staying in the tradition of former Georgia Bulldogs on the Eagles, Mondon made 57 tackles, 3.5 tackles for loss, three sacks, and three pass deflections in 10 games. He lost four games last season due to a left leg injury and had surgery on his foot in the spring.
