Draft Grade — Eagles
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Eagles, and a B- to prove it.

Nobody else had Caden Curry anywhere near slot 68. The Eagles did, by 57 spots, and that gap is the whole story. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

They banked enough surplus on Hecht to cover a lot of smaller sins. That safety hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

They left with cornerback solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Carnell Tate
In the 23rd overall pick they get a difference-maker at receiver at a price that makes it sweeter. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick54 Rnd2 Malachi Lawrence
Malachi Lawrence in pick 54 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick68 Rnd3 Caden Curry
They talked themselves into Caden Curry at No. 68, and the board did not agree. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick98 Rnd3 Jaishawn Barham
A big swing on Jaishawn Barham at pick No. 98, well ahead of any board in the building. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick122 Rnd4 Sam Hecht
They will replay Sam Hecht at Round 4, Pick 22 for years; that is how good the value is. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick137 Rnd4 DeMonte Capehart
Fair-plus on DeMonte Capehart, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick153 Rnd5 Charles Demmings
A tidy bit of business in the 153rd overall pick, where Charles Demmings graded well above the range. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick178 Rnd5 Nate Boerkircher
Nate Boerkircher at the Round 5 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick215 Rnd6 Kaelon Black
They did well to land Kaelon Black in pick 215, just ahead of his grade. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
