Draft Grade — Eagles
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesC+ FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Eagles, and a B- to prove it.

There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Eagles started one anyway for Zakhari Franklin, 61 picks ahead of schedule. A dependable weekend that grades out a B-.

Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. The Wilson pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

Cornerback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Jackson Powers-Johnson
In the Round 1 slot they get an anchor for the offensive line. A real need, handled.
Pick64 Rnd2 Kiran Amegadjie
By-the-book stuff, Kiran Amegadjie at pick 64 squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick76 Rnd3 Payton Wilson
Steal is underselling it; Payton Wilson at pick No. 76 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick95 Rnd3 Braelon Allen
Braelon Allen at slot 95 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It fills a real need, too.
Pick97 Rnd3 Matt Goncalves
Matt Goncalves in the 97th overall pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick114 Rnd4 James Williams
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on James Williams. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick144 Rnd5 Nehemiah Pritchett
Nehemiah Pritchett at the 144th overall pick is money in the bank, a cornerback taken below his worth. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick160 Rnd5 Jacob Cowing
They will replay Jacob Cowing at Round 5, Pick 24 for years; that is how good the value is. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick171 Rnd5 Ty'Ron Hopper
Ty'Ron Hopper at the Round 5 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick178 Rnd6 Joe Milton III
A real head-scratcher, Joe Milton III in pick No. 178 is miles ahead of his ranking. The roster fit checks out.
Pick189 Rnd6 Dwight McGlothern
Value with a capital V on Dwight McGlothern in pick 189, a genuine coup. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick240 Rnd7 Zakhari Franklin
A big swing on Zakhari Franklin at the 240th pick, well ahead of any board in the building. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
