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

Call it larceny. Ozzy Trapilo sat on the board until the Round 4 slot, and the Eagles did not need to be asked twice.

The cost of the Kiser reach is exactly the players who went right after him. They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it. They went 7 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Tyler Warren at the Round 1 slot. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick64 Rnd2 TreVeyon Henderson
TreVeyon Henderson is a better player than the 64th overall pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick96 Rnd3 Tai Felton
They let Tai Felton come to them and pounced at pick 96. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick130 Rnd4 Ozzy Trapilo
Ozzy Trapilo in pick No. 130 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick161 Rnd5 Nohl Williams
A reach on Nohl Williams in No. 161; the board had better options right there. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick164 Rnd5 Jack Kiser
Jack Kiser in the 164th pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick165 Rnd5 JJ Pegues
A premium they did not need to pay, JJ Pegues a notch or two before his time. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick168 Rnd5 Upton Stout
A conviction pick on Upton Stout at Round 5, Pick 30 that the board grades a round light. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
