Sat Apr 26 01:20:00 UTC 2025: ## Eagles Trade Up to Draft Alabama Linebacker Jihaad Campbell
**Philadelphia, PA** – The Philadelphia Eagles wasted no time making their mark on the 2025 NFL Draft, aggressively trading up to select Alabama linebacker Jihaad Campbell. General Manager Howie Roseman orchestrated a deal with the Kansas City Chiefs, surrendering the 32nd overall pick and a 2025 fifth-round pick (No. 164) to move up one spot and secure Campbell at 31.
This strategic maneuver underscores the Eagles’ commitment to bolstering their linebacker corps. The team, fresh off a Super Bowl victory, is looking to maintain its championship momentum. While further details regarding the Eagles’ draft strategy were discussed at a Tuesday press conference featuring Head Coach Nick Sirianni and Roseman, the selection of Campbell marks a significant early move in what promises to be an active draft for the reigning champions. The Eagles now possess an altered selection of picks heading into the later rounds of the 2025 NFL Draft.
