The result is a defense that could be better than last year's - which is saying something considering the 2022 Eagles defense recorded 70 sacks, 2 shy of the single-season record. They responded by using both of their first-round draft picks to land potential difference makers on the defensive side of the ball in defensive tackle Jalen Carter (9th pick) and linebacker Nolan Smith (30th pick).

On defense, the Eagles lost defensive lineman Javon Hargrave to the San Francisco 49ers in free agency. That's a scary thought for the rest of the league. Entering their second season as a group, they could take another step forward this year. It was Hurts' second season as a starter, Smith's sophomore season, and Brown's first with Philadelphia. Last season, the Eagles scored the second-most points (477) in the league. Brown has the 5th-best odds to lead the NFL in receiving yards (+1600), while Smith has the 16th-best odds (+4000). Brown, DeVonta Smith, and Dallas Goedert forming one of the best pass-catching groups in the league. All three of his top targets from last season are back, with A.J. Hurts has the fifth-best odds to win the MVP (+1200), per the NFL MVP odds at FanDuel Sportsbook.
On offense, the Eagles extended Jalen Hurts and replaced outgoing running back Miles Sanders with Rashaad Penny and D'Andre Swift. As it stands, the result is a roster that may be the most talented in the league on both sides of the ball. Philadelphia is having a busy offseason, with several coaching changes and multiple players leaving and arriving on both sides of the ball. The Eagles fell just short of winning the Super Bowl last season and enter this year with the second-best odds (+800) to win Super Bowl LVIII. Talent on offense, talent on defense, and a weaker NFC.
