If you want a masterclass in dealing, watch the Eagles, who turned every swap into a profit this weekend. This is how you run a draft, and the A- reflects it.

Getting Jones where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. That wide receiver hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

Bottom line, they did the job about as well as it can be done.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.22 · Pick 22 · Chop Robinson · DE-EDGE · rank 21
In No. 22 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare. The biggest hole, addressed.
R2.21 · Pick 53 · Cooper DeJean · CB · rank 26
You do not let a cornerback like Cooper DeJean reach pick No. 53 and blink. They did not. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R3.4 · Pick 68 · Kamren Kinchens · S · rank 64
A reasonable price with a little left over, Kamren Kinchens in Round 3, Pick 4. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R4.3 · Pick 103 · Calen Bullock · S · rank 83
Somehow Calen Bullock was still sitting there in the Round 4 slot, and they pounced on premier safety value. It fills a real need, too.
R4.20 · Pick 120 · Cedric Gray · LB · rank 113
Cedric Gray at pick 120 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
R5.25 · Pick 161 · Christian Jones · OT · rank 133
Circle this one: Christian Jones at the 161st pick is a fall that decides a draft. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R5.35 · Pick 171 · Isaiah Davis · RB · rank 156
Isaiah Davis slipping to slot 171 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R5.36 · Pick 172 · Javion Cohen · OG · rank 169
Fair-plus on Javion Cohen, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R6.14 · Pick 189 · Johnny Dixon · CB · rank 191
Johnny Dixon at the Round 6 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R6.24 · Pick 199 · Joe Milton III · QB · rank 200
No edge and no loss on Joe Milton III in the 199th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R6.35 · Pick 210 · Jaylan Ford · LB · rank 205
Jaylan Ford at No. 210 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the linebacker. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
R7.19 · Pick 239 · Keith Randolph Jr. · DL-EDGE · rank 218
Keith Randolph Jr. in pick No. 239 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
