Above-replacement production at the DT salary tier earns Moro Ojomo a B- Contract Value Index. At $979K AAV on a four-year rookie scale deal, Ojomo represents reasonable value for a seventh-round pick—the Eagles are paying a third-year player at near-minimum cost while evaluating whether his developmental arc justifies future investment. His 2025 season statistics (38 tackles, 6 sacks across 17 games) reflect solid interior line work without the dominant impact metrics that would command premium dollars at his position; for context, the media framing emphasizes him as a "prospect-to-star pipeline" rather than an established cornerstone, and Philadelphia's recent deliberation over his future suggests organizational caution about extending significant capital to a player whose production hasn't yet matched the hype surrounding his intangibles. At 24 years old in his third season, Ojomo occupies an interesting space—respected enough to warrant agent upgrades and "big money in his future" contract discussions, but not yet at the level of proven impact that would justify a top-tier defensive tackle salary. The CVI grade reflects this tension: the current deal is a steal by design (rookie scale), but his next contract will demand a measurable leap in production before the Eagles commit real money. His upside is real and media sentiment remains cautiously optimistic, but the onus is now on Ojomo to translate leadership qualities and coaching presence into sack totals and disruption metrics that match franchise expectations.
Other same-position deals the Contract Value Index also places in the B band — a quick read on where Moro's contract sits relative to comparable money.
On tape and on the stat sheet, Moro Ojomo earns a B- performance grade among DT peers. The 24-year-old third-year player recorded 38 tackles and 6 sacks across 17 games in the 2025 season, demonstrating the kind of consistent availability and snap participation the Eagles value in their interior defensive line rotation. His tackle production reflects solid involvement in Philadelphia's scheme, though his sack total underscores the core tension in his evaluation: respectable but not dominant pass-rush production for a player being discussed in contract conversations. At age 23, Ojomo has already earned the respect of his coaching staff as a "coach on the field"—a leadership designation that speaks to his intangibles and developmental trajectory—yet the Eagles' ongoing deliberation about his future signals organizational caution about committing premium dollars to a player whose on-field impact hasn't yet justified that investment. The modest sack output (6 over three seasons) sits at the heart of Philadelphia's calculus; he's a dependable run defender and locker-room presence, but hasn't yet produced the dominant tape that transforms respect into cornerstone status. Ojomo's B- grade captures his current standing—a rising prospect-to-star pipeline with real potential and genuine team value, but still needing to consistently translate his leadership and foundational skills into elite impact production to break into the upper tier of interior defensive linemen.
Moro Ojomo ranks 63rd of 216 graded defensive tackles by performance. That slots Moro between Harrison Phillips (B-) just ahead and Dante Stills (B-) just behind.

Dante StillsArizona CardinalsMoro Ojomo enters 2026 with a **B+** sentiment grade reflecting cautiously optimistic media coverage that positions him as an emerging defensive talent rather than an established star. At just 23, the Eagles defensive tackle has earned respect for his leadership qualities—dubbed a "coach on the field"—while generating contract buzz with his recent agent change and talk of "big money in his future." However, media framing reveals the tension in his evaluation: Philadelphia's deliberation over his future signals organizational uncertainty about investing premium dollars in a player with modest production (6 sacks over three seasons). Fan sentiment leans positive based on developmental upside rather than proven elite performance, with coverage consistently framing him as a "prospect-to-star pipeline" player. The media narrative suggests Ojomo has earned enough respect to warrant serious contract discussions, but hasn't yet delivered the dominant tape that would make him a universally acclaimed cornerstone. His **B+** grade captures this "rising but unproven" positioning—respected enough for agent upgrades and future planning, but still needing to translate potential into consistent impact production to reach that next tier of media perception.
