Draft Grade — Eagles
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Eagles for Carter: B.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Barrett Carter, pick No. 129, roughly 46 picks past where he belonged. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

For all the activity, interior defensive lineman went untouched, which is hard to explain. If Ratledge pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Landon Jackson
In the 32nd pick they get a premier pass rusher. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick64 Rnd2 Tate Ratledge
Tate Ratledge in slot 64 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick96 Rnd3 Ozzy Trapilo
They did well to land Ozzy Trapilo in pick 96, just ahead of his grade. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick129 Rnd4 Barrett Carter
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Barrett Carter in pick No. 129, plain and simple. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick162 Rnd5 Terrance Ferguson
Terrance Ferguson in the Round 5 slot is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick166 Rnd5 Dorian Strong
They liked Dorian Strong enough to skip the value, taking him in the 166th overall pick. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick169 Rnd5 Pat Bryant
They robbed the room for Pat Bryant here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
