Draft Grade — Eagles
Overall D
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureB-
The Eagles won the night they stopped Scott from sliding. Grade: D.

Every swap seemed to tilt away from the Eagles, and the value they bled adds up to real damage. The process wobbled, and the D is where it lands.

Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Scott. They went 7 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

They bet on numbers rather than a single high pick.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Kenyon Sadiq
In No. 26 they get a seam-stretching tight end. A real need, handled.
Pick54 Rnd2 Akheem Mesidor
They paid sticker price for Akheem Mesidor in Round 2, Pick 22, and that is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick68 Rnd3 Lee Hunter
A quiet steal in pick No. 68: Lee Hunter for less than the market said. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick91 Rnd3 Omar Cooper Jr.
Value with a capital V on Omar Cooper Jr. in the Round 3 slot, a genuine coup. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick96 Rnd3 Zachariah Branch
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Zachariah Branch at slot 96. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick98 Rnd3 Keionte Scott
Steal is underselling it; Keionte Scott at pick 98 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick109 Rnd4 Caden Curry
No edge and no loss on Caden Curry in the Round 4 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick122 Rnd4 Jude Bowry
Jude Bowry at pick 122 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick137 Rnd4 Keylan Rutledge
Keylan Rutledge in slot 137 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick151 Rnd5 Kevin Coleman Jr.
No drama and no debate, Kevin Coleman Jr. went about where he belonged in No. 151. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick166 Rnd5 Louis Moore
Louis Moore at Round 5, Pick 28 is money in the bank, a safety taken below his worth. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick179 Rnd5 Matt Gulbin
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Matt Gulbin. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick201 Rnd6 Toriano Pride Jr.
Toriano Pride Jr. at the 201st pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick211 Rnd6 Bud Clark
Nothing to complain about; Bud Clark went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick220 Rnd7 Keyshaun Elliott
A tidy little value on Keyshaun Elliott in the 220th pick, a step better than break-even. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
