In the far corner of the hotel ballroom where Eagles players and coaches sat at tables for 45 minutes on Wednesday and Thursday, the seventh-highest-paid player on the team barely rarely drew an audience.

GM Howie Roseman, the constant in Philadelphia's recent success, has reached across sports to help keep his team at the top. Here's how.

The Eagles once picked Chip Kelly over Howie Roseman. At their third Super Bowl in eight years, they now call Roseman the NFL’s best general manager.

The Eagles were in a bad place following their late 2023 collapse. Roseman responded with a flurry of savvy moves.

That spring, Roseman drafted defensive tackle Jordan Davis in the first round, center Cam Jurgens in the second and linebacker Nakobe Dean in the third. That same weekend, Roseman traded for wide receiver A.J. Brown, to be followed in August with a trade for safety Chauncey Gardner-Johnson.

There were concerns about the Philadelphia Eagles early in the season. During the offseason, they had made coordinator changes on each side of the ball and it took time for the defense to come together.

There was a time before everything was automated, when general managers still mapped out their models and moves using physical materials, when Howie Roseman arranged the personnel of the NFL’s top-four teams inside his office in an obsessive collage.
