Eagles should trade for Browns RB Duke Johnson

A week ago when the Philadelphia Eagles traded a ham sandwich for former Chicago Bears running back Jordan Howard, they immediately improved what was (generously) a bottom five group of NFL running backs. However, the Eagles should be far from done in addressing the running back position, as they still need a reliable player who can catch the ball out of the backfield.

Eagles DE Derek Barnett was very good in 2018 before he got hurt

Derek Barnett is going to turn 23 in June. He's younger than some players who will be drafted at the end of the month. He's already a legitimate starting DE in the NFL, and he's only going to get better.

Eagles sign TE Richard Rodgers to two-year deal

Rodgers was a free agent this offseason, and obviously did not have a strong market, seeing as he had 1 catch for 7 yards in 2018. Still, he's a perfectly cromulent third tight end, and it makes sense for the Eagles to bring him back both as a special teams player, as well as insurance for Zach Ertz and Dallas Goedert.

The Eagles don't highly value the linebacker position, perhaps rightly, but they do still need a middle linebacker.
