Field Yates Projects Indiana WR Charlie Becker to Philadelphia Eagles in 2027 Mock Draft

So far, the Philadelphia Eagles' season hasn't gone the way they anticipated.

Turning to the Future: Why the Eagles Are Looking at the 2027 Draft

Philadelphia has dropped four straight games, dropping their record to 2-4, with some people thinking about the 2027 NFL Draft.

ESPN NFL insider and draft expert Field Yates has released his latest mock for the 2027 NFL Draft, and he has the Philadelphia Eagles taking Indiana wide receiver Charlie Becker with the No. 6 overall pick.

Scouting Report: Who Is Indiana Wide Receiver Charlie Becker?

Becker has flourished into a megastar in his first season as a full-time starter, ranking 11th nationally in receiving yards per game (99.1). He's 6-4 and 208 pounds with exceptional speed, terrific hands and a unique ability to beat man coverage on the outside.

Becker reeled in 34 catches for 679 yards and four touchdowns last year as a sophomore and already has 39 catches for 694 yards and eight scores for the Hoosiers.

Filling the Void Opposite DeVonta Smith

Yates projects Becker to the Eagles because he thinks they need a playmaker across from DeVonta Smith, even after adding Makai Lemon in the first round in 2026.

After filling out their slot position with rookie first-round pick Makai Lemon, adding another dynamic perimeter playmaker opposite DeVonta Smith would be a big boost for the offense.

Lemon has made little impact for the Eagles this season, catching just 18 balls for 127 yards.

Becker is the second wideout selected in Yates’ mock draft; he has Ohio State’s Jeremiah Smith, No. 1, to the Los Angeles Chargers.

Of course, the 2027 draft is still six months away, with plenty of football to still be played.  Hopefully the Eagles can turn their season around, but if not, we will be keeping our eye on mock drafts and potential picks to try and improve the roster.
