Eagles general manager Howie Roseman said Thursday, Philadelphia had Jihaad Campbell graded as a top-10 player on its board.

Eagles general manager Howie Roseman —surprise, surprise — wasn’t watching and waiting while his rival GMs made their draft picks. He was calling and calling and calling — “persistent and determined” — trying to move up because the player he wanted was falling down the draft board.

The Eagles GM was aggressive in trying to get their top first-round prospect, but it didn’t matter because they ended up drafting him nearly 10 picks later.
