Philadelphia Eagles — 2026 Fantasy Outlook
The case for drafting him
The Philadelphia Eagles have been one of the more consistent pass-rushing units in football over the past three seasons, averaging 42 sacks per year from 2023 through 2025. Turnover production has been steady as well — 11.3 interceptions and 10 fumble recoveries per season over that same stretch, with 16.7 forced fumbles annually giving the unit repeated chances to create those recoveries. The 2024 season stood out for ball-hawking: 13 interceptions and 13 fumble recoveries, paired with 41 sacks and only 303 points allowed. The 2025 campaign maintained the sack pace (42) and added 3 defensive touchdowns, 12 interceptions, and a safety. If you need a DST with a proven floor in sacks and a demonstrated ceiling in turnovers, the Eagles' three-year track record makes the case.
What the model projects
The Eagles project for 117.4 half-PPR fantasy points in 2026. Their draft value sits at -11.6, placing them #111 overall and DST9 in Tier 9. That is a below-replacement-level projection at the position — the surplus is negative, meaning the model sees them scoring fewer points than a readily available replacement-level DST. The bye week falls in Week 10, which is worth noting for roster management purposes.
| INT | Sacks | FF | FR | TD | Saf | PA | Half-PPR | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2023 | 9 | 43 | 16 | 8 | 2 | 1 | 428 | 107.0 |
| 2024 | 13 | 41 | 22 | 13 | 1 | — | 303 | 121.0 |
| 2025 | 12 | 42 | 12 | 9 | 3 | 1 | 325 | 116.0 |
| 3-yr avg | 11.3 | 42 | 16.7 | 10 | 2 | 0.7 | 352 | 114.7 |
The range of outcomes
The Eagles' three-year history illustrates the variance inherent in DST scoring. Points allowed swung from 303 in 2024 to 428 in 2023 — a 125-point swing in opponent scoring that directly shapes fantasy output. Forced fumbles ranged from 12 to 22, and fumble recoveries from 8 to 13. Interceptions held in a tighter band of 9 to 13. Defensive touchdowns, always the most volatile DST category, ranged from 1 to 3. The unit has shown it can produce at an elite level in a given season, but the year-to-year swings in points allowed and turnover luck are real. A favorable schedule and a bounce-back in fumble recovery luck could push the Eagles well above their projection; a regression in points allowed toward 2023 levels would suppress it.
How to draft him
The Eagles carry a -11.6 draft value and rank DST9 in Tier 9 — a below-replacement projection. There is no market ADP available for this player, meaning they are not being drafted consistently enough across platforms to establish one. In a standard 12-team snake draft, that context alone should shape your approach: with no established draft price and a below-replacement projection, the Eagles are a late-round or streaming consideration rather than a target you need to plan around. Their bye in Week 10 adds a roster management wrinkle if you do roster them. Draft them only if you have a clear streaming plan to cover that week.
