Draft Grade — Eagles
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Eagles.

The move everyone will second-guess came early. The Eagles reached some 37 spots for Anthony Lucas, and value like that does not grow back. It does the job without flash, and the B- reflects it.

They banked enough surplus on Cooper Jr. to cover a lot of smaller sins. Leaving offensive lineman unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. The roster is better shaped than it was, with cornerback chief among the fixes.

Good work on the whole, with offensive lineman the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Joshua Josephs
In slot 23 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick54 Rnd2 Anthony Lucas
Anthony Lucas in No. 54 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick68 Rnd3 Tyreak Sapp
A real head-scratcher, Tyreak Sapp in Round 3, Pick 4 is miles ahead of his ranking. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick98 Rnd3 Omar Cooper Jr.
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Omar Cooper Jr. in the 98th pick, plain and simple. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick122 Rnd4 Tacario Davis
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Tacario Davis in pick 122. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick137 Rnd4 Mike Washington Jr.
A clean, defensible pick in pick No. 137 with a little surplus value in Mike Washington Jr.. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick151 Rnd5 Tanner Koziol
Tanner Koziol at No. 151 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the tight end. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick179 Rnd5 Rayshaun Benny
A straight-up fair deal on Rayshaun Benny at the 179th pick, value and slot in agreement. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick201 Rnd6 Peyton Bowen
Peyton Bowen at the 201st overall pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
