The rest of the league had time to spare on Eyabi Okie-Anoma; the Eagles did not wait, grabbing him 93 spots ahead at slot 172. Hard to defend, and the D+ reflects that.
Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere. For all the activity, interior defensive lineman went untouched, which is hard to explain. On value alone, Rosengarten makes the weekend a net positive.
In the end, a class the front office will want to grow past quickly.
