Draft Grade — Eagles
Overall

FutureB-
The Eagles worked the phones like thieves and earned a B+. The Eagles ran the phones like sharks, prying loose value on deal after deal until the ledger was lopsided. Call it a sensible B+, earned the boring way.
The Duke reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. That Fautanu pick is the receipt they will wave around later.
They will regret leaving interior defensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it. They went 6 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.
A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.
Pick Analysis
Pick22
Rnd1
Quinyon Mitchell
In pick 22 they get a sticky cover corner. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick53
Rnd2
Troy Fautanu
Troy Fautanu at the Round 2 slot is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick59
Rnd2
Ricky Pearsall
They paid sticker price for Ricky Pearsall in the 59th pick, and that is fine. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick88
Rnd3
Blake Corum
No edge and no loss on Blake Corum in the 88th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. It fills a real need, too.
Pick97
Rnd3
Brenden Rice
Brenden Rice in Round 3, Pick 34 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick128
Rnd4
James Williams
A tidy bit of business in No. 128, where James Williams graded well above the range. The roster fit checks out.
Pick160
Rnd5
Xavier Thomas
Xavier Thomas at pick No. 160 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the edge rusher. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick170
Rnd5
Steele Chambers
Value said wait; Steele Chambers in slot 170 says they were not listening. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick171
Rnd5
Jaylan Ford
They talked themselves into Jaylan Ford at the 171st pick, and the board did not agree. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick178
Rnd6
Kitan Oladapo
Steal is underselling it; Kitan Oladapo at pick 178 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick189
Rnd6
M.J. Devonshire
A tidy little value on M.J. Devonshire in pick No. 189, a step better than break-even. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick216
Rnd6
Daequan Hardy
They robbed the room for Daequan Hardy here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick240
Rnd7
Khalid Duke
Khalid Duke at No. 240 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
