Draft Grade — Eagles
Overall C+
ValueD NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Eagles landed square in the muddy middle: C+.

There is conviction, and then there is this. The Eagles took Jake Smith a full 256 picks ahead of where the board had him, an overdraft steep enough that it colors the whole weekend.

The Jeanty value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. They will regret leaving cornerback for another day if the season turns on it.

Hit on Jonah Savaiinaea and the swing picks, and this ages a lot better than it grades today.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Jonah Savaiinaea
In the Round 1 slot they get a cornerstone up front, even if it was a touch early.
Pick64 Rnd2 Tyler Warren
A tight end of that caliber at pick 64 is the definition of value, full stop. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick96 Rnd3 Warren Brinson
They reached into another round for Warren Brinson, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick134 Rnd4 Jake Smith
They left a pile of value on the table to take Jake Smith this early at Round 4, Pick 32. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick161 Rnd5 Dillon Gabriel
Circle this one: Dillon Gabriel at No. 161 is a fall that decides a draft. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick164 Rnd5 Makari Paige
Makari Paige in the 164th overall pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick165 Rnd5 Fadil Diggs
Fadil Diggs at pick 165 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick168 Rnd5 Ashton Jeanty
Steal is underselling it; Ashton Jeanty at the 168th overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
