League Names Most Complete Team: 'Everyone Wants to Be Eagles'
League Names Most Complete Team: 'Everyone Wants to Be Eagles' originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Few teams in NFL history have dominated their way to a Super Bowl quite like the Philadelphia Eagles did last season. After a franchise-record 14 regular-season wins, the Eagles rolled through the postseason en route to their 40-22 win in Super Bowl LIX. Advertisement Since their victory, teams around the league have tried to emulate what the Eagles were able to do during the 2024-25 season. It's hard to match Philly, though, when the roster is so talented. That's why has called the Eagles the best and most complete team in the league heading into the 2025 season. "They incurred free-agent losses this offseason befitting of a Super Bowl champion and a franchise that has won 45 games (including playoffs) over the past three years," said. "After all, everyone wants to be like the Eagles. "Yet even with some departures, primarily on the defensive side, the team remains set up to compete for a title again thanks to the brilliant craftsmanship of GM Howie Roseman." Advertisement Everyone wants to be the Eagles. That kind of statement would have been seen as ludicrous 15 years ago. Philadelphia has been highly consistent over the team's history, but struggled to win championships over their near 100-year history. Since their title win in 2018, though, things have changed. Philadelphia is no longer considered a team who can't win the big one. They are now considered one of the most feared teams in the sport. … and the envy of all of their NFL enemies.

Bryce Huff says Peace to the Eagles on social media after news of a looming trade to 49ers
The defending Super Bowl champions are moving on from Bryce Huff, as the Eagles are finalizing a post-June 1 trade with the 49ers that'll send the pass rusher to San Francisco for a mid-round draft pick. It's a disappointing end to a perceived upgrade after Philadelphia signed Huff to a three-year, $51 million deal to replace Haason Reddick. Huff spent the majority of the 2024 season injured or out of the rotation. Advertisement After news of the trade broke, Huff immediately changed his social media profile photo, showing the pass rusher throwing up the Peace sign. Bryce Huff Instagram avatar A prize-free agent signing this time last spring, Huff was a major disappointment in 2024 and saw limited playing time due to the rotation and injuries. Huff had 2.5 sacks, missed seven games, and was inactive for the Super Bowl. With Brandon Graham retiring and Josh Sweat signing with Arizona, it was assumed that Huff might take on a larger role in 2024 alongside Nolan Smith. Even after the Eagles signed Josh Uche and Azeez Ojulari, Huff has stayed away with voluntary off-season workouts, Jeff McLane of the Philadelphia Inquirer reports. Bryce Huff wasn't at practice. In fact, the defensive end hasn't attended Eagles' workouts this entire spring, an NFL source said. That doesn't necessarily come as a huge surprise since he is unlikely to be part of the Eagles' plans for 2025. General manager Howie Roseman, when asked about Huff in early February, might have said his story 'is yet to be written,' but the fact that he was inactive for the Super Bowl said more about his future in Philadelphia. Advertisement Huff was entering the second year of that $51 million contract with $16.75 million guaranteed. He'll be reunited with Robert Saleh, the 49ers' defensive coordinator, and his coach in New York with the Jets when Huff had a breakout campaign.

Eagles deservingly claim the top spot on a unique ranking of NFL rosters
Eagles deservingly claim the top spot on a unique ranking of NFL rosters lead draft writer slots the Eagles first on a ranking of pro football's most complete teams. There was already an air of confidence hovering over the Philadelphia Eagles' organization. After two OTA sessions, it has thickened. Serious question... Why wouldn't it? Sure, Philadelphia has to start over and climb the mountain again. Yes, 31 other franchises would love to knock them from their perch, but let's be honest. If the Birds take care of business, how many of those 31 franchises have the firepower to get the job done? That isn't stated to sound arrogant. It's only an acknowledgement of the talent Philadelphia leadership structure has assembled, but how about this? If you still aren't convinced, let's call a witness to the stand. Your honor... The defense calls lead draft writer. Eric Edholm places the Eagles atop his list of the NFL's most complete teams. The Baltimore Ravens are home to a two-time MVP. The Buffalo Bills are home to the reigning MVP. The Kansas City Chiefs have Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid. The Detroit Lions were the top-seeded playoff team in the NFC last season. What do they all have in common? Well, they have several things in common, but here are two worth noting. They all land among the top five on Eric Edholm's list of the NFL's most complete teams, and they're all staring up at Philadelphia, which claimed the top spot. "They incurred free-agent losses this offseason befitting of a Super Bowl champion and a franchise that has won 45 games (including playoffs) over the past three years. After all, everyone wants to be like the Eagles. Yet even with some departures, primarily on the defensive side, the team remains set up to compete for a title again thanks to the brilliant craftsmanship of GM Howie Roseman." That's a direct quote from Edholm, and he's right. The Eagles don't have many weaknesses. Their quarterback is the reigning Super Bowl MVP. Their starting tailback is the reigning NFL Offensive Player of the Year. They have the game's best offensive line. There are arguably stars at every level on offense and defense. The starting wide receiver duo is the game's best. Zack Baun is an All-Pro. Even the young stars play like seasoned veterans. All head coach Nick Sirianni does is win. Vic Fangio has fine-tuned a relatively young defense into one of the game's best, and his unit can get better. And, how can we forget about Howie Roseman? He's pro football's top general manager. When you put it all together, it's easy to see why ESPN's Bill Barnwell calls this the franchise "most likely to inspire jealousy" in other teams. The schedule is brutal. There are difficult stretches, and there aren't any consecutive home games, but when it's all said and done, there's very little reason to assume anything other than this team will be in the championship race again.
