Good, not great, for the Eagles: B-. You can fall in love with a player. You are not supposed to marry him in the wrong round. The Eagles did exactly that with Arik Gilbert in the 246th overall pick.
A whole weekend of picks and interior defensive lineman is somehow still a want. That is an edge rusher worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. They gave back a little on the phones for the right to move.
On the needs board they went 7 of 9, with cornerback the one that mattered most.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the interior defensive lineman spot they never got to.
Pick Analysis
Pick21
Rnd1
Kool-Aid McKinstry
In the 21st pick they get an island corner at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick59
Rnd2
Edgerrin Cooper
Edgerrin Cooper at pick 59 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick97
Rnd3
Gabriel Murphy
Gabriel Murphy at slot 97 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick133
Rnd4
James Williams
James Williams in Round 4, Pick 33 lands just on the right side of the ledger. The roster fit checks out.
Pick137
Rnd5
Jaheim Bell
Jaheim Bell at pick No. 137 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It fills a real need, too.
Pick157
Rnd5
Malik Washington
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Malik Washington. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick162
Rnd5
Frank Gore Jr.
A straight-up fair deal on Frank Gore Jr. at Round 5, Pick 26, value and slot in agreement. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick178
Rnd6
Justin Eboigbe
Justin Eboigbe in pick 178 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick225
Rnd7
Miles Frazier
The board had cheaper options than Miles Frazier at pick No. 225, and it noticed. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick231
Rnd7
J.J. Weaver
J.J. Weaver is a better player than the 231st pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick246
Rnd7
Arik Gilbert
Arik Gilbert in the 246th overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
