Draft Grade — Eagles

Grand theft in the Round 2 slot: the Eagles steal Starks and grade out a B-.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Eagles were there to profit. Malaki Starks, the No. 27 name on the board, should have been long gone before pick 64. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.

Leaving cornerback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. They will need Cornelius to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Jalon Walker
In No. 32 they get a green-dot type in the middle, outstanding value to boot.
Pick64 Rnd2 Malaki Starks
Somehow Malaki Starks was still sitting there in slot 64, and they pounced on premier safety value. It fills a real need, too.
Pick96 Rnd3 Isaiah Bond
They robbed the room for Isaiah Bond here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick134 Rnd4 Emery Jones Jr.
They read the board right and Emery Jones Jr. was the payoff at the 134th pick. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick161 Rnd5 Jake Briningstool
A reach for Jake Briningstool in the Round 5 slot; a little patience would have been rewarded. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick164 Rnd5 Jonah Monheim
Jonah Monheim in Round 5, Pick 26 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick165 Rnd5 Ajani Cornelius
The board had cheaper options than Ajani Cornelius at the 165th overall pick, and it noticed. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick168 Rnd5 Damien Martinez
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Damien Martinez in pick 168. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
