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

The Eagles looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Evan Williams at Round 5, Pick 36 regardless, 42 picks early.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up. Getting McCaffrey where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. Cornerback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Terrion Arnold
In the 16th overall pick they get a lockdown presence outside. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick50 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
Edgerrin Cooper at Round 2, Pick 18 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick118 Rnd4 Matt Goncalves
A tidy little value on Matt Goncalves in No. 118, a step better than break-even. It fills a real need, too.
Pick120 Rnd4 Isaac Guerendo
Isaac Guerendo at pick 120 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick161 Rnd5 Luke McCaffrey
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Luke McCaffrey at pick No. 161 is the proof. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick171 Rnd5 AJ Barner
They took AJ Barner at par in the 171st pick, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick172 Rnd5 Evan Williams
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Evan Williams well ahead of where he belonged. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick210 Rnd6 Gabe Hall
They paid a round early for Gabe Hall in the Round 6 slot, more than the board wanted. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
