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

Call it a hunch or call it a gamble, but the Eagles spent pick No. 169 on Jacob Parrish, a name most had 47 spots down the list. It does the job without flash, and the B- reflects it.

The Grant pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Job largely done: cornerback settled and 6 of 9 of the wish list covered.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Jalon Walker
In pick No. 32 they get a coverage-and-run second-level piece, outstanding value to boot. Need was not the driver here.
Pick64 Rnd2 Deone Walker
A straight-up fair deal on Deone Walker at slot 64, value and slot in agreement. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick96 Rnd3 Elijah Arroyo
Elijah Arroyo at the 96th pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It fills a real need, too.
Pick129 Rnd4 Charles Grant
Charles Grant in the 129th overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick162 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
A conviction pick on Dont'e Thornton Jr. at pick 162 that the board grades a round light. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick166 Rnd5 Jaylen Reed
They paid up for Jaylen Reed at the Round 5 slot when waiting would have done the job. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick169 Rnd5 Jacob Parrish
Jacob Parrish in No. 169 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
