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

Everything else got attention, and interior defensive lineman got none. That is a strange way for the Eagles to leave a draft. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.

The Johnson pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. The cost of the Williams reach is exactly the players who went right after him.

Job largely done: cornerback settled and 4 of 9 of the wish list covered.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Chop Robinson
In slot 22 they get a double-digit-sack hope. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick50 Rnd2 Javon Bullard
Javon Bullard at the 50th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick53 Rnd2 T.J. Tampa
They took T.J. Tampa at par in the Round 2 slot, which is nothing to complain about. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick120 Rnd4 Brenden Rice
No edge and no loss on Brenden Rice in pick 120; it is a wash and a sensible one. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick161 Rnd5 James Williams
They paid a round early for James Williams in Round 5, Pick 25, more than the board wanted. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick171 Rnd5 Cornelius Johnson
Cornelius Johnson in pick No. 171 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick172 Rnd5 Decamerion Richardson
A straight-up fair deal on Decamerion Richardson at No. 172, value and slot in agreement. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
