Draft Grade — Eagles
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Eagles a B.

Of all the ways to open, the Eagles chose the head-scratcher, spending the 97th overall pick on Maason Smith with edge rusher, interior defensive lineman and other spots still wide open.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher. Smith falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.

They went 2 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Terrion Arnold
A straight-up fair deal on Terrion Arnold at slot 22, value and slot in agreement. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick50 Rnd2 Xavier Worthy
A reasonable price with a little left over, Xavier Worthy in pick No. 50. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick54 Rnd2 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
A market-rate linebacker, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jeremiah Trotter Jr.. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick97 Rnd3 Maason Smith
Of all the spots to shop, they chose DT-EDGE. Maason Smith in the 97th pick leaves edge rusher, interior defensive lineman and other spots for later.
