If the Philadelphia Eagles stay true to their draft philosophy, Kadyn Proctor could be one of the most logical selections in Round 1. The young and exuberant Alabama standout brings elite size, power, and upside—traits that align perfectly with what Philadelphia values along the offensive line. The Eagles already have an Alabama-to-Philadelphia pipeline, and Proctor could be the next Crimson Tide star to join a Super Bowl hopeful.
During the NFL Scouting Combine, themassive offensive tackle said the Eagles were showing "a lot" of interest in him. At 6-7 and 350-plus pounds, Proctor is more than just his physical size, offering enough athleticism to run pass routes. Daniel Jeremiah's No. 29 prospect in the draft, Proctor, confirmed that the Eagles are paying close attention. The Eagles have consistently invested in the trenches, and Proctor offers both immediate depth and long-term potential. His physical tools make him a developmental prospect with Pro Bowl upside.
Proctor could be the perfect pick to eventually replace six-time Pro Bowl right tackle Lane Johnson, who will turn 36 in May. The Iowa native was a three-year starter for the Crimson Tide, going back to his freshman year in 2023. Proctor earned consensus All-America honors in 2025 and is still just 20 years old, providing the perfect backdrop for a year or two of playing and learning behind Johnson at right tackle. Proctor was a stalwart on the left side, allowing 37 total pressures in 2024 and 2025 combined and five sacks.
With questions about future continuity at the offensive line, adding a player like Proctor would help the Eagles stay ahead of the curve.
It wouldn't be flashy—but it would be very Eagles.
