The Philadelphia Eagles lost another game Sunday, but their position near the top of the 2027 NFL draft order remained unchanged. After a 19-11 defeat to the New York Giants, Philadelphia sits at No. 5 in Tankathon’s updated order, the same spot it held entering Week 9.
The Eagles dropped to 2-7 with their seventh consecutive loss, continuing a slide that has made next April’s draft increasingly relevant. Philadelphia remains behind the Los Angeles Chargers, Tennessee Titans, Miami Dolphins and Indianapolis Colts, whose first-round selection belongs to the New York Jets.
Sunday’s results offered little movement for Philadelphia because other top teams also struggled. Miami and Indianapolis lost, while Tennessee was on its bye. The Chargers remained
winless at 0-7 ahead of their late-afternoon game, keeping Los Angeles atop the board in this update.
Updated 2027 NFL draft order
Here are the first 10 selections in the Tankathon snapshot following Philadelphia’s loss:
Philadelphia, Indianapolis, and the Jets have identical 2-7 records, so strength of schedule determines their placement. The Colts hold the earlier position with a .482 strength of schedule, followed by the Eagles at .493 and the Jets at .545. The team with the lower strength of schedule gets the earlier selection.
That leaves Philadelphia close to moving in either direction within that group. Results elsewhere can affect the tiebreaker even when the Eagles’ record does not change, making the order worth monitoring during their upcoming bye.
Draft position adds another layer to trade deadline
The Eagles’ place in the top five also provides context for Howie Roseman’s decisions before Tuesday’s trade deadline. Philadelphia must evaluate which veterans fit its plans beyond this season and whether potential trade returns would help address the roster’s longer-term needs.
An early first-round selection would give Roseman a valuable opportunity to add talent or explore a trade involving the pick. However, eight games remain on Philadelphia’s schedule, leaving substantial time for its eventual selection to change.
For now, another loss has kept the Eagles firmly among the teams positioned to pick early. Philadelphia has gone from a 2-0 start to 2-7, and its latest defeat leaves the organization holding the fifth selection while searching for answers during the bye.
