The phones were a trap the Eagles kept walking into, shipping out surplus on nearly every deal. The board pushed back all weekend, and the D is the result.

The interior defensive lineman spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Williams.

Almost all the early capital went to that side of the ball.

Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, interior defensive lineman very much included.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.22 · Pick 22 · Amarius Mims · OT · rank 22
In pick No. 22 they get an anchor for the offensive line at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
R1.32 · Pick 32 · Troy Franklin · WR · rank 25
In the 32nd pick they get a true top target. The biggest hole, addressed.
R2.1 · Pick 33 · Ladd McConkey · WR · rank 33
Ladd McConkey in slot 33 is fair value, right on his grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R2.5 · Pick 37 · Tyler Nubin · S · rank 30
A reasonable price with a little left over, Tyler Nubin in the Round 2 slot. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
R2.6 · Pick 38 · Ennis Rakestraw Jr. · CB · rank 38
A straight-up fair deal on Ennis Rakestraw Jr. at No. 38, value and slot in agreement. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R2.18 · Pick 50 · Jackson Powers-Johnson · C · rank 51
Jackson Powers-Johnson in Round 2, Pick 18 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R2.27 · Pick 59 · Chris Braswell · LB-EDGE · rank 57
No edge and no loss on Chris Braswell in pick 59; it is a wash and a sensible one. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R3.12 · Pick 76 · Junior Colson · LB · rank 76
Junior Colson at pick No. 76 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
R3.29 · Pick 92 · Christian Haynes · OG · rank 77
Christian Haynes slipping to the 92nd pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R4.5 · Pick 105 · Jaden Hicks · S · rank 107
No drama and no debate, Jaden Hicks went about where he belonged in No. 105. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R4.33 · Pick 133 · Max Melton · CB · rank 111
Steal is underselling it; Max Melton at Round 4, Pick 33 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R5.4 · Pick 140 · Mohamed Kamara · DL-EDGE · rank 117
You do not let an edge rusher like Mohamed Kamara reach the 140th overall pick and blink. They did not. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R6.40 · Pick 215 · Erick All · TE · rank 215
A market-rate tight end, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Erick All. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R7.5 · Pick 225 · Jalen Berger · RB · rank 206
Circle this one: Jalen Berger at slot 225 is a fall that decides a draft. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R7.19 · Pick 239 · Miyan Williams · RB · rank 204
Miyan Williams in pick No. 239 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R7.28 · Pick 248 · Joshua Cephus · WR · rank 239
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Joshua Cephus at No. 248 is the proof. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
