Draft Grade — Eagles
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Eagles: B-.

There is reaching, and then there is Oluwafemi Oladejo at slot 165. The Eagles jumped the board by 73 and dared it to prove them wrong.

Arroyo at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through cornerback.

They went 6 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Nick Emmanwori
In the 32nd overall pick they get a downhill hitter at safety, and a steal at that.
Pick64 Rnd2 Barrett Carter
They paid a round early for Barrett Carter in Round 2, Pick 32, more than the board wanted. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick96 Rnd3 Elijah Arroyo
Elijah Arroyo at the Round 3 slot is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick130 Rnd4 Jamaree Caldwell
A straight-up fair deal on Jamaree Caldwell at slot 130, value and slot in agreement. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick161 Rnd5 Phil Mafah
Phil Mafah in the 161st pick is fair value, right on his grade. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick164 Rnd5 Jack Nelson
By-the-book stuff, Jack Nelson at pick No. 164 squarely in line with his ranking. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick165 Rnd5 Oluwafemi Oladejo
A wild overpay on Oluwafemi Oladejo in the 165th pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick168 Rnd5 JJ Pegues
They jumped the gun on JJ Pegues, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
