The tape said wait; the Eagles did not. Tommy Eichenberg went at the Round 4 slot, a good 25 picks before the board was ready. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.
That Keegan pick is the receipt they will wave around later. Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Cornerback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.
Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.
Pick-by-Pick
In the Round 1 slot they get a blindside protector. A clean fit for the roster.
Kamari Lassiter slipping to the 50th overall pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Xavier Worthy. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
A big swing on Tommy Eichenberg at slot 120, well ahead of any board in the building. A minor itch, scratched.
Trevor Keegan slid further than he should have, and pick 161 is lovely value for the offensive lineman. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
They did well to land Jaheim Bell in No. 171, just ahead of his grade. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Marist Liufau at slot 172 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Trente Jones in the Round 6 slot is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
