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

The tape said wait; the Eagles did not. Michael Barrett went at No. 210, a good 25 picks before the board was ready. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. It is not that Trotter Jr. is a bad player; it is that the Eagles had louder needs to answer first.

That Zinter pick is the receipt they will wave around later.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Terrion Arnold
In No. 22 they get an island corner at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick50 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
Edgerrin Cooper at slot 50 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick53 Rnd2 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
They bypassed pressing needs at edge rusher, wide receiver and other spots to take Jeremiah Trotter Jr., a linebacker that was not the priority.
Pick120 Rnd4 Zak Zinter
A slide stopped in the 120th overall pick, with Zak Zinter worth more than the price. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick161 Rnd5 Kitan Oladapo
Kitan Oladapo at the Round 5 slot is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the safety. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick171 Rnd5 Walter Rouse
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Walter Rouse at pick 171 is the proof. The roster fit checks out.
Pick172 Rnd5 AJ Barner
A straight-up fair deal on AJ Barner at Round 5, Pick 36, value and slot in agreement. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick210 Rnd6 Michael Barrett
Michael Barrett in slot 210 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
