The Philadelphia Eagles have a legacy of producing top-tier defensive players, and rookie linebacker Jihaad Campbell is already drawing comparisons to the franchise's greats before his first NFL snap. Draft expert Rob Rang likens Campbell to Jeremiah Trotter, the last Eagles off-ball linebacker to make the Pro Bowl until Zack Baun's recent success. Both players exhibit remarkable versatility and athleticism, setting high expectations for Campbell as he enters the league.

This early praise indicates that Campbell possesses a skill set reminiscent of Trotter's, making him a compelling player to monitor in fantasy leagues. With the Eagles' strong defensive reputation, Campbell's performance could significantly affect fantasy outcomes for both IDP leagues and team defenses.

Eric Gregory, an undrafted free agent defensive lineman from Arkansas, has chosen to sign with the Cincinnati Bengals despite multiple offers from other NFL teams. The Bengals' lack of a seventh-round draft pick likely played a role in his decision, as they effectively showcased their ability to develop undrafted players like Maema Njongmeta. Bengals coach Jerry Montgomery's reputation for nurturing young talent likely influenced Gregory's choice, as he was highly regarded by his Arkansas coaches.

Gregory's selection is indicative of the Bengals' strategy to bolster their roster through free agency, particularly in defense. The team has demonstrated success in cultivating undrafted talent, which could bode well for Gregory's prospects as he aims to make the final roster.
