Draft Grade — Eagles
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesF FutureA+
The Eagles lost the trade table, and the B- tells the story.

The phones were a trap the Eagles kept walking into, shipping out surplus on nearly every deal. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.

They banked enough surplus on Alexander to cover a lot of smaller sins. If Gadsden II pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. They punted on wide receiver, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

On the needs board they went 5 of 9, with cornerback the one that mattered most.

Good work on the whole, with wide receiver the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick96 Rnd3 Darius Alexander
Darius Alexander in pick 96 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick110 Rnd4 Anthony Belton
No edge and no loss on Anthony Belton in No. 110; it is a wash and a sensible one. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick121 Rnd4 Zy Alexander
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, Zy Alexander in the 121st overall pick, plain and simple. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick134 Rnd4 Luke Kandra
A big swing on Luke Kandra at Round 4, Pick 32, well ahead of any board in the building. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick161 Rnd5 Barryn Sorrell
Barryn Sorrell at the 161st pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick162 Rnd5 Aeneas Peebles
You do not let an interior defensive lineman like Aeneas Peebles reach the Round 5 slot and blink. They did not. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick164 Rnd5 JJ Pegues
JJ Pegues at pick No. 164 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick165 Rnd5 Jack Kiser
Jack Kiser at slot 165 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick168 Rnd5 Oronde Gadsden II
Oronde Gadsden II in the 168th pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick193 Rnd6 Connor Colby
A tidy bit of business in pick No. 193, where Connor Colby graded well above the range. It fills a real need, too.
