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

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Nick Nash, the No. 142 name on the board, stolen at the 168th pick. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

The safety hole is the one line item this class does not answer. They are betting McLeod proves the room right and everyone else wrong.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with cornerback chief among the fixes. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but safety.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
In pick No. 32 they get a load in the middle, and a steal at that. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick64 Rnd2 Donovan Ezeiruaku
Donovan Ezeiruaku at slot 64 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick96 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
Nice patience on Donovan Jackson, who had no business lasting to the Round 3 slot. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick130 Rnd4 Smael Mondon Jr.
Smael Mondon Jr. at pick 130 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick161 Rnd5 Dorian Strong
They took Dorian Strong at par in the 161st overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick164 Rnd5 Jalen McLeod
They left a pile of value on the table to take Jalen McLeod this early at the 164th pick. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick165 Rnd5 Raheim Sanders
They will replay Raheim Sanders at Round 5, Pick 27 for years; that is how good the value is. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick168 Rnd5 Nick Nash
The board fumbled Nick Nash all the way to No. 168, and they scooped it up. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
