It's April, meaning the NFL Draft is less than a month away.
As we await the final weekend of April and the Draft's arrival in the City of Brotherly Love, let's revisit the Eagles draft picks for the 2017 Draft in Version 3.0 of our Eagles mock draft.
Round 1, Pick 14, (14): Marshon Lattimore, CB, Ohio State
It's no secret the Eagles need help in their secondary. They have been searching for a shutdown cornerback since trading Asante Samuel and currently have zero true starting CBs on their roster.
Enter Lattimore.
Perhaps the best cornerback in this draft, it would be an absolute heist if the Birds are able to draft the former Buckeye at 14. But with such a strong cornerback class, it wouldn't be shocking if the teams in front of the Eagles decided to address other needs in hopes of getting a quality corner on Day 2 or Day 3 of the draft.
Lattimore possesses average size for a corner, but he is an explosive athlete who covers up his inexperience with his impressive speed and quickness. In fact, Lattimore was one of the top performers in the 40-yard dash, broad jump and vertical jump at the combine.
Among all the top corners in this draft, Lattimore has the highest ceiling and would immediately transform the Eagles defense.
Round 2, Pick 11, (43): T.J. Watt, DE, Wisconsin
Even with the recent signing of defensive end Chris Long, the Eagles still need long-term help with their pass rush. Brandon Graham and Vinny Curry are two nice pieces, but neither man is capable of taking over a game and adding more bodies to their rotation will help the Eagles sustain their pass rush over the course of 60 minutes.
Just like his name suggests, Watt is a hustler who beats offensive linemen by out-working them. He doesn't have any elite traits yet, but there is just so much to like about his game, especially his work as a run-stopper. On a defense where getting pressure from the front four is key, adding a player of Watt's caliber would go a long way in solidifying the Birds' defense as a top-tier unit.
Round 3, Pick 10, (74): Chidobe Awuzie, CB, Colorado
The defensive theme continues in round three as the Eagles add another corner who can step in and start immediately.
Awuzie specializes in man coverage and he has the speed, physicality and quickness to stick with receivers all over the field. He isn't an elite prospect, but if him and Lattimore play up to their potential, the Eagles will have the best pair of corners since Lito Sheppard and Sheldon Brown were roaming the field for Jim Johnson.
Round 4, Pick 12, (119): Chris Godwin, WR, Penn State
Finally we get to the offense in the fourth round, picking up a productive wide receiver who is coming off a year in which he scored 11 touchdowns.
Godwin had a lot of success at Penn State and has an all-around skill set that would be a tremendous complement to Alshon Jeffery and Torrey Smith's tools. Godwin isn't a burner or a big body, but he is a smart receiver who knows how to get open and find the end zone.
With Jordan Matthews set to hit free agency soon, it may be smart for the Eagles to find someone who can produce in the slot, should Matthews' price get too high for them.
Round 4, Pick 32, (139): Tanzel Smart, DT, Tulane
With Bennie Logan in Kansas City, the Eagles need to rebuild the interior of their defensive line around Fletcher Cox. Cox's elite talent is certainly enough to stuff the middle, but they still need more bodies than just Beau Allen.
Smart is a bit undersized, weighing in at 296 lbs, but he is very quick and explosive. The two-time All-American Athletic Conference choice totaled over 30 tackles for loss in his last two years at Tulane. With Jim Schwartz preferring penetrating defensive linemen, he could be a nice fit next to Cox on pass-rushing downs.
Round 5, Pick 11, (155): James Conner, RB, Pittsburgh
Running back is a need that may not get addressed fully in 2017, but adding a bruising back like Connor would add another dimension to the Eagles offense. With Wendell Smallwood and a collection of smaller, pass-catching running backs currently on the roster, the Eagles don't really have a guy who can grind out tough yards in a goal-to-go situation.
Connor is a raw runner and doesn't have a lot of wiggle to him, but he's big and he's tough. He may not be a feature 'back, but he can be a situational guy in short yardage situations and be a vital part of the Eagles' running back committee.
Round 6, Pick 10, (194): Matt Milano, LB, Boston College
If the Eagles deal Mychal Kendricks, they will need to add a linebacker who can play in their base defense as a run-stopper. It seems Schwartz is content with Nigel Bradham and Jordan Hicks as his nickel 'backers, so adding a linebacker who excels in pass coverage isn't a huge need right now.
Milano is an instinctive player who blitzes well and plays a lot like Kendricks. He is fast and adds a lot of value on special teams, blocking two punts in his college career. If the Eagles can find a potential starter in the sixth round, it will be a good day to be Howie Roseman.
Round 7, Pick 12, (230): Jerry Ugokwe, OT, William & Mary
This is the second time Ugokwe has been profiled here and I still think he's a really good fit. A raw, powerful prospect from a small school would benefit from playing behind a veteran like Jason Peters. Ugokwe is very raw and a lot of teams would probably rather find players who can help them sooner rather than later.
The Eagles need to find another tackle for when Peters moves on and adding an elite athlete in the seventh round could give them that answer without wasting valuable resources.
