Philadelphia used the 111th overall pick, acquired late Friday night from Denver, to select Robinson. In the trade, the Eagles moved out of the third round, sending the Broncos the 101st overall selection, while improving their fourth-round positioning from pick 134 to 130. The team also has another Nebraska product in offensive lineman Cam Jurgens, who was drafted in 2022 and recently signed a contract extension through 2029.

Per MFL Media’s scouting report, Robinson is described as a "bully" with a physical playing style suited for multiple defensive fronts.

“Bully with a roughshod playing style that forces blockers to match his physicality. Robinson is built for the trenches with the versatility to play in odd or even fronts. He’s first into contact with his hands and mitigates average knee-bend with brute force in his upper half,” the report read.

Though his knee-bend is considered average, his upper-body strength and effort level allow him to consistently impact plays at the line of scrimmage. He projects as a player who, with his toughness and motor, could sustain a productive NFL career.

Ty Robinson spent six years at Nebraska, starting for five seasons. He accumulated 97 total tackles, 14 tackles for loss, 12 sacks, eight pass deflections, and a fumble recovery across his college career.

Philadelphia continues to hold additional picks heading into the later rounds.
