Philadelphia Eagles General Manager Howie Roseman is predicted to make bold moves during the upcoming NFL Draft, potentially trading up to secure a standout cornerback from the University of Alabama.

With the addition of former Denver Broncos head coach Vic Fangio as the team’s new defensive coordinator, the Eagles appear determined to address their defensive weaknesses.
