Philadelphia is reportedly exploring multiple scenarios, including draft-related moves, and had earlier discussions with the Vikings about pass-rusher Jonathan Greenard. Those talks have cooled, but the team is positioned to pursue several options in the coming weeks.
Brown’s status is central to the team’s plans, as he did not participate in the start of the Eagles’ offseason workout program while awaiting clarity on his future. Participation isn’t mandatory before June 1, when trade talks with the Patriots and other teams are expected to resume.
The front office, led by general manager Howie Roseman, has a history of active, multi-track planning—staying open to draft-day pivots while evaluating veteran players who could complement the roster.
With the draft underway, the Eagles are expected to remain aggressive in pursuing value, whether that means finalizing a Brown deal, pivoting to another target, or pursuing alternatives that keep the roster flexible for the future.
As the draft progresses, the focus will be on how Brown’s situation and Philadelphia’s broader trade strategy evolve, with any resolution likely to unfold in the weeks following the draft.
