Philadelphia Eagles

Grand theft in No. 105: the Eagles steal Mahogany and grade out a D.

Future B-

The Eagles lost the trade war and it was not close, handing partners the better end again and again.

A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Mahogany.

Cornerback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and quarterback is still a hole.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.22 · Pick 22 · Cooper DeJean · CB · rank 13
In slot 22 they get an island corner at a price that makes it sweeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
R1.23 · Pick 23 · Rome Odunze · WR · rank 11
Rome Odunze in pick No. 23 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R2.18 · Pick 50 · Tyler Guyton · OT · rank 40
Value with a capital V on Tyler Guyton in the Round 2 slot, a genuine coup. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R2.22 · Pick 54 · Brandon Dorlus · DE-EDGE · rank 56
No edge and no loss on Brandon Dorlus in the 54th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R2.27 · Pick 59 · Chris Braswell · LB-EDGE · rank 57
Chris Braswell at pick 59 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R3.2 · Pick 66 · Javon Bullard · S · rank 66
Javon Bullard in the 66th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R3.5 · Pick 69 · Payton Wilson · LB · rank 70
They took Payton Wilson at par in the 69th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. A minor itch, scratched.
R3.7 · Pick 71 · Ruke Orhorhoro · DT · rank 69
They paid sticker price for Ruke Orhorhoro in the Round 3 slot, and that is fine. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R3.34 · Pick 97 · Tykee Smith · S · rank 97
No drama and no debate, Tykee Smith went about where he belonged in pick No. 97. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
R4.5 · Pick 105 · Christian Mahogany · OG · rank 80
Circle this one: Christian Mahogany at slot 105 is a fall that decides a draft. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R5.1 · Pick 137 · Daijun Edwards · RB · rank 132
Nothing to complain about; Daijun Edwards went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R5.27 · Pick 163 · McCallan Castles · TE · rank 152
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and McCallan Castles at pick 163 is the proof. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R5.36 · Pick 172 · Chau Smith-Wade · CB · rank 162
They let Chau Smith-Wade come to them and pounced at No. 172. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R6.3 · Pick 178 · Cody Schrader · RB · rank 165
Cody Schrader slipping to the 178th pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It fills a real need, too.
R7.23 · Pick 243 · Zakhari Franklin · WR · rank 229
Nice patience on Zakhari Franklin, who had no business lasting to the 243rd pick. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
