Draft Grade — Eagles
Overall D-
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureB-
The Eagles drew a line under the quarterback search with Daniels: D-.

The trade table was where it all came apart. The Eagles shipped out far more than they hauled back, and no amount of spin dresses up the bill.

Everything downstream of Jayden Daniels depends on Jayden Daniels, and the building knows it. A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. The Colson pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at edge rusher, wide receiver and other spots.

They are betting Trotter Jr. proves the room right and everyone else wrong. However the rest shakes out, Jackson at that price is a win they earned.

Bottom line, they will be counting on several picks to beat their grades.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Jayden Daniels
In Round 1, Pick 22 they get a long-term answer under center, and a steal at that. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick23 Rnd1 Terrion Arnold
Terrion Arnold at the 23rd overall pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick50 Rnd2 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
The board had cheaper options than Jeremiah Trotter Jr. at No. 50, and it noticed. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick53 Rnd2 Junior Colson
A curious use of the 53rd pick. Edge rusher, wide receiver and other spots needed the pick; a linebacker in Junior Colson did not.
Pick120 Rnd4 Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson at pick 120 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick161 Rnd5 Mason McCormick
Mason McCormick is a better player than pick No. 161 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick171 Rnd5 Tykee Smith
They let Tykee Smith come to them and pounced at the Round 5 slot. It fills a real need, too.
Pick172 Rnd5 AJ Barner
They paid sticker price for AJ Barner in slot 172, and that is fine. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick210 Rnd6 Nathaniel Watson
By-the-book stuff, Nathaniel Watson at the 210th pick squarely in line with his ranking. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
