Draft Grade — Eagles
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Eagles: B-.

Boards are made to be trusted, and the Eagles shredded theirs for Oluwafemi Oladejo. He came off 45 spots early, and the room will hear about it. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.

On value alone, Phillips makes the weekend a net positive. They will regret leaving cornerback for another day if the season turns on it.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Nick Emmanwori
In pick 32 they get a rangy last line of defense, and a steal at that.
Pick64 Rnd2 Donovan Jackson
A straight-up fair deal on Donovan Jackson at Round 2, Pick 32, value and slot in agreement. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick96 Rnd3 Oluwafemi Oladejo
A big swing on Oluwafemi Oladejo at the 96th pick, well ahead of any board in the building. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick134 Rnd4 Jordan Phillips
Jordan Phillips in the Round 4 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick161 Rnd5 Bhayshul Tuten
Bhayshul Tuten in slot 161 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick164 Rnd5 Chase Lundt
Chase Lundt in pick No. 164 is fair value, right on his grade. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick165 Rnd5 Seth McLaughlin
No drama and no debate, Seth McLaughlin went about where he belonged in No. 165. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick168 Rnd5 Tyrion Ingram-Dawkins
Tyrion Ingram-Dawkins in slot 168 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
