Draft Grade — Eagles
Overall B
ValueA NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Eagles won the night they stopped Sampson from sliding. Grade: B.

The Eagles did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Dylan Sampson fell into No. 129.

They will regret leaving cornerback for another day if the season turns on it. Job largely done: edge rusher settled and 4 of 9 of the wish list covered.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Landon Jackson
In pick 32 they get a problem off the edge at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick64 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
Jalon Walker at the Round 2 slot is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick96 Rnd3 Tate Ratledge
Tate Ratledge at No. 96 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick129 Rnd4 Dylan Sampson
Taking Dylan Sampson in slot 129 is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick162 Rnd5 Kyren Lacy
They will replay Kyren Lacy at Round 5, Pick 23 for years; that is how good the value is. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick166 Rnd5 Jake Majors
You do not let an offensive lineman like Jake Majors reach the 166th pick and blink. They did not. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick169 Rnd5 Pat Bryant
Circle this one: Pat Bryant at the 169th overall pick is a fall that decides a draft. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
