2011 draft
Consensus All American left tackle Gabe Carimi, winner of the 2010 Outland Trophy as the nation's top collegiate interior lineman, was predicted to be the Eagles' choice with its No. 23 pick in the first round of the April 2011 NFL Draft, by ESPN.com (Mel Kiper and Todd McShay), Rob Rang (CBS Sports), Jeff Howe (NESN), DraftTek.com, and WalterFootball.com.[13][14][15][16] Charles Davis (NFL.com) predicted that they would pick Texas cornerback Aaron Williams, and Pat Kirwan (NFL.com) predicted that they would pick Mississippi State offensive tackle Derek Sherrod.[17][18]
Despite a current work stoppage, a provision in the now expired CBA ensures that the 2011 NFL Draft will still take place. There are restrictions in place. Only traded picks for current players are those that were made before the work stoppage. Teams can trade draft picks not taken yet in this draft.
