Draft Grade — Eagles
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
A masterclass at the trade table lands the Eagles a B+.

The Oronde Gadsden II selection is the head-turner. The Eagles reached 39 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered.

The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. On value alone, James makes the weekend a net positive. The interior defensive lineman spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

The George Kittle pickup adds a known quantity to a class of unknowns.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but interior defensive lineman.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In pick 32 they get a home-run threat at receiver, outstanding value to boot. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick51 Rnd2 Denzel Burke
No edge and no loss on Denzel Burke in the 51st pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick97 Rnd3 D.J. James
Taking D.J. James in the Round 3 slot is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick137 Rnd5 Ty'Ron Hopper
A reach for Ty'Ron Hopper in Round 5, Pick 1; a little patience would have been rewarded. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick147 Rnd5 Oronde Gadsden II
They reached a country mile for Oronde Gadsden II at No. 147, and the board is aghast. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick172 Rnd5 Malachi Moore
They robbed the room for Malachi Moore here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The roster fit checks out.
Pick178 Rnd6 Gabriel Murphy
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Gabriel Murphy in Round 6, Pick 3. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick253 Rnd7 Zion Nelson
A reasonable price with a little left over, Zion Nelson in the 253rd overall pick. A need, and now a little less of one.
