Draft Grade — Eagles
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Eagles let King fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

The Eagles spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Kalen King, the No. 139 name on the board, in the 171st overall pick.

That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. On the needs board they went 5 of 9, with cornerback the one that mattered most. The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Kool-Aid McKinstry
In the Round 1 slot they get an island corner. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick50 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
A reasonable price with a little left over, T'Vondre Sweat in the 50th overall pick. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick53 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
Good price on Edgerrin Cooper in slot 53, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick120 Rnd4 Beaux Limmer
A straight-up fair deal on Beaux Limmer at pick 120, value and slot in agreement. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick161 Rnd5 Tyrone Tracy Jr.
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Tyrone Tracy Jr. at Round 5, Pick 25 is the proof. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick171 Rnd5 Kalen King
They will replay Kalen King at pick No. 171 for years; that is how good the value is. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick172 Rnd5 Kitan Oladapo
The board fumbled Kitan Oladapo all the way to the 172nd pick, and they scooped it up. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick210 Rnd6 Trente Jones
They read the board right and Trente Jones was the payoff at No. 210. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
