Philadelphia Eagles

The Eagles bled value on every deal, hence the D.

The war room fell hard for Eyabi Okie-Anoma, and it showed at pick No. 210: 74 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas.

The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Landing Guerendo that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. On the needs board they went 7 of 9, with cornerback the one that mattered most.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.25 · Pick 25 · Cooper DeJean · CB · rank 27
Cooper DeJean in Round 1, Pick 25 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R2.1 · Pick 33 · Brian Thomas Jr. · WR · rank 28
Brian Thomas Jr. in the 33rd overall pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R2.3 · Pick 35 · Jordan Morgan · OT · rank 37
A straight-up fair deal on Jordan Morgan at pick No. 35, value and slot in agreement. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R2.18 · Pick 50 · Payton Wilson · LB · rank 57
Payton Wilson in No. 50 is fair value, right on his grade. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
R3.1 · Pick 65 · Max Melton · CB · rank 77
Max Melton at the 65th pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R3.2 · Pick 66 · Kingsley Suamataia · OT · rank 61
Fair-plus on Kingsley Suamataia, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R3.3 · Pick 67 · Devontez Walker · WR · rank 70
They paid sticker price for Devontez Walker in pick 67, and that is fine. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Jaden Hicks · S · rank 85
Jaden Hicks at the Round 3 slot nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R3.37 · Pick 100 · Maason Smith · DT · rank 110
They went early on Maason Smith in the 100th overall pick, and the value did not follow. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R4.4 · Pick 104 · Johnny Wilson · WR · rank 125
They left a pile of value on the table to take Johnny Wilson this early at No. 104. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R5.3 · Pick 139 · Isaac Guerendo · RB · rank 128
Isaac Guerendo slid further than he should have, and slot 139 is lovely value for the running back. It fills a real need, too.
R6.35 · Pick 210 · Eyabi Okie-Anoma · DL-EDGE · rank 284
Value said wait; Eyabi Okie-Anoma in Round 6, Pick 35 says they were not listening. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
