The rest of the league will want that one back. Keon Coleman tumbling to the Eagles in the Round 3 slot is a gift they did not have to think twice about.
They will regret leaving interior defensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it. Every board in the league had Boyd lower, and that gap is the story.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the interior defensive lineman spot they never got to.
Pick-by-Pick
In Round 1, Pick 22 they get a lockdown presence outside. The biggest hole, addressed.
In pick 23 they get a cornerstone up front at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Keon Coleman in slot 97 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
A slide stopped in the 126th overall pick, with Isaac Guerendo worth more than the price. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Nice patience on Tykee Smith, who had no business lasting to pick No. 160. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Khristian Boyd at No. 170 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Jaheim Bell at the Round 5 slot is money in the bank, a tight end taken below his worth. The roster fit checks out.
Curtis Jacobs slid further than he should have, and the 210th pick is lovely value for the linebacker. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
