Eagles beat Broncos to offensive weapon by 8 picks in NFL Draft
The Philadelphia Eagles selected Vanderbilt's Eli Stowers eight picks ahead of the Denver Broncos in the NFL Draft. The Broncos instead chose Justin Joly, a tight end from N.C. State, in the fifth round.
The Denver Broncos were expected to pick a tight end early in the NFL Draft but didn't until the fifth round when they chose Justin Joly. The Philadelphia Eagles beat them to Vanderbilt's Eli Stowers by eight picks. The Broncos had considered Stowers if he was available at No. 62. Joly is seen as a potential pass-catching weapon, with the Broncos liking his 2024 tape. The Eagles' selection of Stowers is strategic as they have Dallas Goedert on a one-year contract and he's aging. Stowers is poised to be an heir in Philadelphia.
