Draft Grade — Eagles
Overall D+
ValueB+ NeedB TradesF FutureB-
A costly weekend of dealing drags the Eagles to a D+.

Nobody had Que Robinson this high, and it is not close. The Eagles reached 86 spots to get him at Round 5, Pick 27. The board pushed back all weekend, and the D+ is the result.

On value alone, Smith makes the weekend a net positive. The trades bled value they could not afford to lose. For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain.

They chose more darts over a bigger single swing.

Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, quarterback very much included.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Jalon Walker
In the 32nd pick they get a sideline-to-sideline linebacker, outstanding value to boot. Need was not the driver here.
Pick45 Rnd2 Malaki Starks
Malaki Starks at No. 45 is money in the bank, a safety taken below his worth. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick64 Rnd2 Aireontae Ersery
A tidy bit of business in pick No. 64, where Aireontae Ersery graded well above the range. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick96 Rnd3 Gunnar Helm
A reasonable price with a little left over, Gunnar Helm in slot 96. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick130 Rnd4 Jaylin Noel
Somehow Jaylin Noel was still sitting there in the Round 4 slot, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick161 Rnd5 Jacob Parrish
Jacob Parrish at pick 161 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick165 Rnd5 Que Robinson
A real head-scratcher, Que Robinson in Round 5, Pick 27 is miles ahead of his ranking. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick166 Rnd5 JJ Pegues
A premium they did not need to pay, JJ Pegues a notch or two before his time. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick168 Rnd5 Dorian Strong
Dorian Strong in the 168th pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick189 Rnd6 Brashard Smith
Circle this one: Brashard Smith at No. 189 is a fall that decides a draft. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
