Offseason

NFL draft 
The 1945 NFL Draft was held on April 8, 1945. It was the last draft held in Chicago; later in the year, the league moved its offices to Philadelphia. The Eagles ended up with picks in thirty of the thirty-two rounds in the draft, and picked ninth in each of those rounds. The teams with the five worst records in the 1944 season were the only teams picking in rounds two and four.

Future Hall of Famers in this draft included Charley Trippi, a halfback from Georgia who was chosen in the first round and was the number one pick of the Chicago Cardinals. Elroy "Crazylegs" Hirsch, a wide receiver from Michigan was chosen as fifth overall by the Cleveland Rams. Pete Pihos, a defensive end from Indiana University, Tom Fears, an end from UCLA, and Arnie Weinmeister, a defensive tackle from Washington were also part of this draft.
