Draft Grade — Eagles
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B for the Eagles.

If confidence were a draft strategy, the Eagles would have aced it. Ahmed Hassanein at pick 128 is 79 spots clear of where he belonged.

However the rest shakes out, Stutsman at that price is a win they earned. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through cornerback.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Luther Burden III
They read the board right and Luther Burden III was the payoff at pick 31. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick63 Rnd2 Harold Fannin Jr.
Harold Fannin Jr. at the 63rd overall pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick95 Rnd3 Xavier Watts
Xavier Watts in pick No. 95 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick128 Rnd4 Ahmed Hassanein
Ahmed Hassanein at Round 4, Pick 27 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick160 Rnd5 Danny Stutsman
Steal is underselling it; Danny Stutsman at the Round 5 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick164 Rnd5 Jeffrey Bassa
A linebacker of that caliber at the 164th pick is the definition of value, full stop. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick166 Rnd5 Miles Frazier
This one needs a full-page explanation: Miles Frazier in Round 5, Pick 29, miles early. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
