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

If confidence were a draft strategy, the Eagles would have aced it. DeMonte Capehart at the 98th pick is 54 spots clear of where he belonged.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Anderson. They went 7 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

Nothing gained and nothing lost at the table.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Kenyon Sadiq
Kenyon Sadiq in slot 28 is fair value, right on his grade. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick59 Rnd2 Keith Abney II
Keith Abney II at Round 2, Pick 27 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick80 Rnd3 Drew Shelton
Drew Shelton at the 80th overall pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. The roster fit checks out.
Pick90 Rnd3 Charles Jagusah
Charles Jagusah at the Round 3 slot is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick97 Rnd3 Kenyatta Jackson Jr.
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Kenyatta Jackson Jr. well ahead of where he belonged. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick98 Rnd3 DeMonte Capehart
A real head-scratcher, DeMonte Capehart in No. 98 is miles ahead of his ranking. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick125 Rnd4 DJ McKinney
By-the-book stuff, DJ McKinney at Round 4, Pick 25 squarely in line with his ranking. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick135 Rnd4 Bray Hubbard
A straight-up fair deal on Bray Hubbard at the 135th pick, value and slot in agreement. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick157 Rnd5 Aaron Anderson
The board had Aaron Anderson higher than pick 157, and the wide receiver fell to them anyway. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick168 Rnd5 Patrick Payton
They reached a country mile for Patrick Payton at No. 168, and the board is aghast. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick207 Rnd6 Trey Zuhn III
They paid a round early for Trey Zuhn III in the Round 6 slot, more than the board wanted. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick213 Rnd6 Roderick Kearney
A reach for Roderick Kearney in slot 213; a little patience would have been rewarded. It fills a real need, too.
