Draft Grade — Eagles
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Eagles: B-.

Call it a hunch or call it a gamble, but the Eagles spent pick 157 on Patrick Payton, a name most had 65 spots down the list. The bottom line is a respectable B-.

Getting Singleton where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Kenyon Sadiq
In the 28th overall pick they get a security blanket over the middle at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick61 Rnd2 Jaeden Roberts
Jaeden Roberts in the 61st pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick65 Rnd3 Domonique Orange
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Domonique Orange. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick90 Rnd3 Kenyatta Jackson Jr.
They reached into another round for Kenyatta Jackson Jr., and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick98 Rnd3 Chandler Rivers
They took Chandler Rivers at par in Round 3, Pick 34, which is nothing to complain about. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick125 Rnd4 Nicholas Singleton
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Nicholas Singleton in No. 125, plain and simple. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick129 Rnd4 D'Angelo Ponds
D'Angelo Ponds at pick 129 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick135 Rnd4 Aaron Anderson
The board had cheaper options than Aaron Anderson at pick No. 135, and it noticed. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick157 Rnd5 Patrick Payton
A big swing on Patrick Payton at the 157th pick, well ahead of any board in the building. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick168 Rnd5 Xavier Nwankpa
A reach on Xavier Nwankpa in the Round 5 slot; the board had better options right there. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick207 Rnd6 Trey Zuhn III
They paid a round early for Trey Zuhn III in Round 6, Pick 27, more than the board wanted. The roster fit checks out.
Pick213 Rnd6 Tristan Leigh
Tristan Leigh at the 213th overall pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
