PHILADELPHIA \u2013 The Eagles took a receiver in the first round, just like everyone thought they would do. Does the offensive lineman everyone really expected arrive in Friday night’s second round? There\u2019s no use trying to figure out general manager Howie Roseman. He typically zigs when everyone zags.<\/p>\n

Still, an offensive lineman \u2013 especially someone who can possibly take over for Lane Jonson at some point \u2013 is coming right?<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re through with Day 1,\u201d said Roseman when asked how the trade of two fourth-round picks to move up in the first round for Makai Lemon impacted the rest of the draft, especially the expected O-line pick. \u201cI think that\u2019s probably something we\u2019ll see what happens over the next couple of days, and it’s probably easier for me to answer when we\u2019re done with the draft.\u201d<\/p>\n

There are several directions the Eagles could go with three picks \u2013 as of now \u2013 on Friday. In addition to O-line, they could go defensive end\/edge, safety, or tight end. They own one selection in the second (54 overall) and two in the third (68 and 98).<\/p>\n

Here are 15 names that could make sense over Friday\u2019s two rounds, followed by my Day 2 mock draft:<\/p>\n

EDGE\/DEFENSIVE END<\/p>\n

Gabe Jacas, Illinois. Solid sack producer in college that should continue at the next level.<\/p>\n

Dani Dennis-Sutton, Penn State. The Eagles are still light on the outside, but maybe a trade for Jonathan Greenard materializes this evening. <\/p>\n

Derrick Moore, Michigan. How cool would it be for Michigan man Brandon Graham to teach Michigan man Moore the ropes?<\/p>\n

Romello Height, Texas Tech. Built a bit like Nolan Smith at 6-2, 239 and had great production last year 10 sacks, 11.5 tackles for loss in 14 starts.<\/p>\n

SAFETY<\/p>\n

A.J. Haulcy, LSU. My preference would be Arizona\u2019s Treydan Stukes, even though he turns 25 in September. Stukes may require a trade up if the Eagles really want him.<\/p>\n

Jalon Kilgore, South Carolina. The Eagles did a lot of work on him in the pre-draft process.<\/p>\n

OFFENSIVE LINE<\/p>\n

Caleb Tiernan, Northwestern. A massive blocker at 6-7, 329, with versatility in gap-zone run-blocking.<\/p>\n

Gennings Dunker, Iowa. Started 38 games at right tackle in four college seasons, but his future may be at guard, and if he can beat out Tyler Steen, he could play immediately. One of my personnel favorites in this draft.<\/p>\n

Emmanuel Pregnon, Oregon. He can play either guard positions.<\/p>\n

Markell Bell, Miami. Mammoth lineman who stands a shade over 6-9 and plays around 350.<\/p>\n

Austin Barber, Florida. Howie Roseman is a Gators alum and it\u2019s been a while since he\u2019s taken someone from his college, so maybe this nearly 6-7, 320-pounder fits the bill.<\/p>\n

TIGHT END<\/p>\n

Oscar Delp, Georgia. The Eagles could wait until Day 3 to find a tight end, but Delp is one of the best in this class after Kenyon Sadiq, who was taken 16th overall by the Jets<\/p>\n

Sam Roush, Stanford. A big, tough player who excels at blocking.<\/p>\n

Eli Sowers, Vanderbilt. Like Stukes, the Eagles would likely have to try to trade up to get him.<\/p>\n

Max Klare, Ohio State. Strong pass catcher who needs work on his run blocking.<\/p>\n

DAY 2 MOCK:<\/p>\n

SECOND ROUND<\/p>\n

54: Emmanuel Pregnon, guard<\/p>\n

THIRD ROUND<\/p>\n

68: Jalon Kilgore, safety<\/p>\n

98: Sam Roush, tght end<\/p>\n
