But at 6-foot-3, 262 lbs. with explosiveness off the line of scrimmage, the young talent could develop into a perfect defensive end at the NFL level.<\/p>\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<p><img alt=\"Kirby Lee-Imagn Images\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"960\" height=\"640\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"standard-img\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/7ed25c19b14656b3321e7f07fc2c8310.jpeg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Kirby Lee-Imagn Images<\/p>\n<p>Sticking to the defense, the Eagles are in desperate need of an additional cornerback to play alongside budding star Quinyon Mitchell in 2026. Fortunately for the organization, San Diego State\u2019s Chris Johnson could be exactly what the Eagles need in round two.<\/p>\n<p>Johnson was easily one of the best cornerbacks in all of college football last season, recording a PFF grade of 91.6 in 2025. The Aztec projects to be a second cornerback for whichever team selects him in the upcoming draft, making him a no-brainer pick for Philadelphia.<\/p>\n<p><img alt=\"Mark J.

At 6-foot-2, 210 lbs., Sarratt demonstrated his ability to catch in traffic, which is a perfect pairing for quarterback Jalen Hurts.
