How likely are the Philadelphia Eagles to take a defensive lineman with the 32nd pick in the 2025 NFL Draft?

In his mock draft 3.0, ESPN’s Mel Kiper Jr. thinks they will take a defensive tackle to replace Milton Williams, who is now in New England with the Patriots.

With pick No. 32, Kiper has the Eagles taking Ole Miss defensive tackle Walter Nolen.

Kiper also had the Eagles taking Nolen in his Mock Draft 2.0 in February.

The summary of the Rebels' prospect goes like this:

Nolen is very disruptive thanks to explosive traits and strong hands. He had 6.5 sacks and 15 run stops last season. And while he didn't go to Georgia, Nolen at least keeps the Eagles' direct line to SEC defensive tackles alive.

Adding another defensive tackle is very likely after the Eagles added Joshua Uche and Azeez Ojulari in free agency on the edge.

Right now the Eagles return Jalen Carter and Jordan Davis at the top of the depth chart with Moro Ojomo, Thomas Booker IV and Gabe Davis as depth peices to replace Williams. Adding a player like Nolen makes plenty of sense after adding a pair of edge rushers in free agency.
