Draft Grade — Eagles
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Eagles, and a B to prove it.

Somehow the biggest item on the list survived the weekend. The Eagles never addressed interior defensive lineman, and it is the kind of gap that lingers.

However the rest shakes out, McCaffrey at that price is a win they earned. Job largely done: cornerback settled and 7 of 9 of the wish list covered.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Chop Robinson
In slot 22 they get a problem off the edge at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick50 Rnd2 T.J. Tampa
They paid sticker price for T.J. Tampa in the 50th overall pick, and that is fine. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick53 Rnd2 Junior Colson
No edge and no loss on Junior Colson in Round 2, Pick 21; it is a wash and a sensible one. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick120 Rnd4 Blake Fisher
They took Blake Fisher at par in No. 120, which is nothing to complain about. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick161 Rnd5 Luke McCaffrey
They read the board right and Luke McCaffrey was the payoff at pick No. 161. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick171 Rnd5 Dillon Johnson
Dillon Johnson at pick 171 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It fills a real need, too.
Pick172 Rnd5 Malik Mustapha
Malik Mustapha at the 172nd pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick210 Rnd6 Tanner McLachlan
Good price on Tanner McLachlan in the Round 6 slot, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. The roster fit checks out.
