Draft Grade — Eagles
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Eagles let Pierce fall into their laps, and walked away with a B.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Eagles were there to profit. Hollin Pierce, the No. 137 name on the board, should have been long gone before pick No. 164.

The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Reaching for Colby left real value on the table behind him.

They went 6 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. Value over need was the throughline, for better and worse.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Tetairoa McMillan
In slot 32 they get a true top target, outstanding value to boot. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick64 Rnd2 Alfred Collins
Alfred Collins at pick 64 is money in the bank, a interior defensive lineman taken below his worth. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick96 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Andrew Mukuba at pick No. 96 is the proof. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick134 Rnd4 Smael Mondon Jr.
Circle this one: Smael Mondon Jr. at the 134th overall pick is a fall that decides a draft. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick161 Rnd5 Bhayshul Tuten
Bhayshul Tuten in the 161st pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. The roster fit checks out.
Pick164 Rnd5 Hollin Pierce
They barely believed it either: Hollin Pierce still on the board at No. 164. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick165 Rnd5 Tommi Hill
Fair-plus on Tommi Hill, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick168 Rnd5 Connor Colby
A conviction pick on Connor Colby at the Round 5 slot that the board grades a round light. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
