Draft Grade — Eagles
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Eagles: B-.

The Eagles put a flag in the ground for Mac McWilliams, 58 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit. It does the job without flash, and the B- reflects it.

For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain. The Savaiinaea pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Jalon Walker
In pick No. 32 they get a green-dot type in the middle, and a steal at that. More want than need.
Pick64 Rnd2 Jonah Savaiinaea
Nice patience on Jonah Savaiinaea, who had no business lasting to the 64th overall pick. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick96 Rnd3 Malachi Moore
A reach for Malachi Moore in Round 3, Pick 32; a little patience would have been rewarded. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick129 Rnd4 Shemar Turner
Shemar Turner at the Round 4 slot is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick162 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
A premium they did not need to pay, Dont'e Thornton Jr. a notch or two before his time. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick166 Rnd5 Mac McWilliams
Mac McWilliams at No. 166 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick169 Rnd5 Oronde Gadsden II
Oronde Gadsden II at the 169th overall pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
