Larceny in slot 230 lands the Eagles a B, Simon and all.

When a board-topper like Cody Simon slides to Round 7, Pick 12, you do not overthink it, and the Eagles did not.

For all the activity, safety went untouched, which is hard to explain. Reaching for Ivey left real value on the table behind him.

They trusted the board more than the depth chart.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the safety spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In pick 32 they get a security blanket over the middle, outstanding value to boot.
Pick64 Rnd2 Jared Ivey
They jumped the gun on Jared Ivey, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick101 Rnd3 Ajani Cornelius
A reach for Ajani Cornelius in Round 3, Pick 37; a little patience would have been rewarded. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick140 Rnd5 Mello Dotson
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Mello Dotson. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick162 Rnd5 Kyren Lacy
Circle this one: Kyren Lacy at No. 162 is a fall that decides a draft. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick166 Rnd5 Darius Alexander
Taking Darius Alexander in the 166th overall pick is close to grand larceny; an interior defensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick169 Rnd5 Joshua Gray
Joshua Gray at slot 169 is a conviction pick that outran the value. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick230 Rnd7 Cody Simon
They will replay Cody Simon at the 230th pick for years; that is how good the value is. A minor need, but a need all the same.
