Nobody could have imagined when the Philadelphia Eagles selected Quinyon Mitchell in the first round of the 2024 NFL Draft that he would become an All-Pro in just two years into his career.
At the time, Mitchell was a rising name, but with him playing at Toledo, it was somewhat considered a risk for the Eagles. That gamble paid off as he's arguably the best shutdown corner in the NFL.
Philly loved how that worked out the first time, so that influenced what they do in the 2026 NFL Draft. Eagles reporter James Simone shared that the team was at Toledo's Pro Day as they watched players like Emmanuel McNeil-Warren, Andre Fuller, and Nasir Bowers.
