Draft Grade — Eagles
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Eagles kept it disciplined and banked a B-.

The Eagles went off the board in a big way for Xavier Thomas, 77 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another.

The Allen value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Nate Wiggins
In slot 22 they get a potential shutdown corner. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick50 Rnd2 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
They paid up for Jeremiah Trotter Jr. at Round 2, Pick 18 when waiting would have done the job. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick54 Rnd2 Tyler Guyton
Tyler Guyton at pick No. 54 is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick97 Rnd3 Roman Wilson
A tidy bit of business in pick 97, where Roman Wilson graded well above the range. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick137 Rnd5 James Williams
Good price on James Williams in the 137th overall pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick163 Rnd5 LaDarius Henderson
No drama and no debate, LaDarius Henderson went about where he belonged in the Round 5 slot. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick172 Rnd5 Braelon Allen
Braelon Allen is a better player than Round 5, Pick 36 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It fills a real need, too.
Pick178 Rnd6 Xavier Thomas
They reached a country mile for Xavier Thomas at pick No. 178, and the board is aghast. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick243 Rnd7 Jayson Jones
They reached into another round for Jayson Jones, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
