The 2025 NFL Draft is quickly approaching as teams around the NFL work to host prospects on top 30 visits ahead of the event in late April. Top 30 visits (or 30 visits) are the most exclusive meetings that teams can have with prospects during the pre-draft process and they’ve been clear indicators of interest for the Philadelphia Eagles in recent years.
Prior to the 2023 NFL Draft, the Eagles hosted Jalen Carter, Nolan Smith, Tyler Steen and Kelee Ringo on top 30 visits. Prior to the 2024 NFL Draft, the Eagles hosted Quinyon Mitchell, Cooper DeJean, Jalyx Hunt, Ainias Smith and Johnny Wilson on top 30 visits.
Which means 56.3% of Philadelphia’s draft picks in each of the last two seasons had top 30 visits with the team. 100% of Philadelphia’s first three draft picks in each of the last two seasons had top 30 visits with the team.
Here are the prospects that the Eagles will reportedly host on top 30 visits in the City of Brotherly Love ahead of the 2025 NFL Draft.
Jalen Travis, OL, Iowa State
Former Iowa State offensive lineman Jalen Travis started 11 games at left tackle for the Cyclones in 2024. According to Pro Football Focus, Travis allowed just one sack and 11 total pressures in 475 pass protection snaps at Iowa State. Prior to joining the Cyclones, Travis played at Princeton while splitting time at both left tackle and right tackle.
Travis has the ideal size to play offensive tackle in the NFL at 6’8”, 339 lbs. with 34 7/8” arms. While Travis is far from a finished product, he would benefit by learning inside Philadelphia’s prestigious offensive line room. Travis is projected to be selected on day three of the 2025 NFL Draft.

Marcus Mbow, OL, Purdue
Former Purdue offensive lineman Marcus Mbow played multiple positions in college. Mbow started 18 games at right tackle and 14 games at right guard. Many expect Mbow to find a home at guard in the NFL, as he has drawn comparisons to former Tampa Bay Buccaneers guard Ali Marpet.
Mbow’s athleticism and feisty temperament would mesh well with Philadelphia’s offensive line. He is able to move to the second level with ease, making him an ideal fit as the next student to enroll at Stoutland University. Mbow is projected to be selected on day two of the 2025 NFL Draft.

Josh Conerly Jr., OL, Oregon
Former Oregon offensive lineman Josh Conerly Jr. started 28 games at left tackle for Ducks. While he went viral for being bulldozed by Marshall edge rusher Mike Green in one-on-one drills at the Senior Bowl, Conerly’s tape at Oregon was still very impressive.
According to Pro Football Focus, Conerly allowed just two sacks in his 28 starts at Oregon. Conerly’s most impressive performance came against Penn State edge rusher Abdul Carter, who didn’t record a single pressure against the Ducks. Conerly is projected to be selected late in the first round or early on day two of the 2025 NFL Draft.

Anthony Belton, OL, North Carolina State
Former North Carolina State offensive lineman Anthony Belton played over 2,200 snaps at left tackle for the Wolfpack. Belton has the ideal size to play offensive tackle at the next level at 6’6”, 336 lbs. with nearly 34” arms. It’s easy to see why the Eagles are intrigued by Belton’s size profile and skillset.
Belton is certainly far from a finished product, yet he would benefit greatly from learning from Jeff Stoutland and working behind both Jordan Mailata and Lane Johnson. Belton is projected to be selected late on day two or early on day three of the 2025 NFL Draft.
