Draft Grade — Eagles
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Eagles did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B.

Somehow the biggest item on the list survived the weekend. The Eagles never addressed edge rusher, and it is the kind of gap that lingers.

The Reese steal is the beam this whole class leans on. Cornerback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

Value over need was the throughline, for better and worse.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In pick 23 they get a coverage-and-run second-level piece, outstanding value to boot. Need was not the driver here.
Pick54 Rnd2 Elijah Sarratt
Nothing to complain about; Elijah Sarratt went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick68 Rnd3 Max Klare
Nice patience on Max Klare, who had no business lasting to the 68th overall pick. The roster fit checks out.
Pick98 Rnd3 Chandler Rivers
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Chandler Rivers at slot 98 is the proof. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick122 Rnd4 Jude Bowry
Jude Bowry at the Round 4 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It fills a real need, too.
Pick137 Rnd4 Billy Schrauth
Billy Schrauth at Round 4, Pick 37 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick151 Rnd5 J'Mari Taylor
They took J'Mari Taylor at par in the 151st pick, which is nothing to complain about. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick179 Rnd5 Zane Durant
Zane Durant in No. 179 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick201 Rnd6 Red Murdock
Red Murdock at Round 6, Pick 22 is money in the bank, a linebacker taken below his worth. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
