Draft Grade — Eagles
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Eagles cashed the board's mistake on Sharpe: B-.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Eagles watched Jamari Sharpe slide 27 picks past his grade and did not hesitate. It does the job without flash, and the B- reflects it.

The interior defensive lineman spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The Luckie reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.

They went 3 of 5 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick5 Rnd1 Dylan Stewart
In slot 5 they get a double-digit-sack hope. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick36 Rnd2 Greg Johnson
By-the-book stuff, Greg Johnson at No. 36 squarely in line with his ranking. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick97 Rnd3 Zach Lutmer
Zach Lutmer in pick 97 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick106 Rnd4 Jamari Sharpe
Jamari Sharpe in the 106th overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The roster fit checks out.
Pick143 Rnd5 Lawson Luckie
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Lawson Luckie well ahead of where he belonged. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick153 Rnd5 Earnest Greene III
Earnest Greene III in pick No. 153 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick160 Rnd5 Chris Marshall
Chris Marshall at the Round 5 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick233 Rnd7 Jordan Marshall
Jordan Marshall in Round 7, Pick 12 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
