Draft Grade — Eagles
Overall D
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureB-
The Eagles lost the trade table, and the D tells the story.

The Eagles treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending the 168th overall pick on Jason Marshall Jr. a full 34 spots early. A weekend that fought the value and lost, hence the D.

The trade table is where this weekend went wrong. The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. They banked enough surplus on Walker to cover a lot of smaller sins.

Quantity was the play, for better or worse.

It is a steep hill from here, and the grade knows it.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
In pick No. 32 they get a load in the middle, outstanding value to boot. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick42 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
The board fumbled Jalon Walker all the way to slot 42, and they scooped it up. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick64 Rnd2 Harold Fannin Jr.
A slide stopped in No. 64, with Harold Fannin Jr. worth more than the price. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick96 Rnd3 Kevin Winston Jr.
They took Kevin Winston Jr. at par in the Round 3 slot, which is nothing to complain about. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick111 Rnd4 Emery Jones Jr.
The board had cheaper options than Emery Jones Jr. at the 111th overall pick, and it noticed. The roster fit checks out.
Pick134 Rnd4 Luke Kandra
Luke Kandra in the 134th pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick161 Rnd5 Bhayshul Tuten
Bhayshul Tuten slid further than he should have, and slot 161 is lovely value for the running back. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick164 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
A real head-scratcher, Dont'e Thornton Jr. in Round 5, Pick 26 is miles ahead of his ranking. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick165 Rnd5 Jack Kiser
They paid a round early for Jack Kiser in the 165th pick, more than the board wanted. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick168 Rnd5 Jason Marshall Jr.
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jason Marshall Jr. well ahead of where he belonged. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
