Draft Grade — Eagles
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Eagles checked most of the boxes and earned a B-.

The Eagles spent real capital to be 82 picks early on Clay Webb, and the board is going to hold them to it. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.

The Cornelius pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. The cornerback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. They went 5 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

Good work on the whole, with cornerback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In No. 32 they get a security blanket over the middle, outstanding value to boot. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick64 Rnd2 Alfred Collins
Alfred Collins is a better player than the Round 2 slot suggests; smart patience, rewarded. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick96 Rnd3 David Bailey
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for David Bailey. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick129 Rnd4 Tez Johnson
Tez Johnson in pick 129 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick162 Rnd5 Ajani Cornelius
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Ajani Cornelius in the 162nd pick, plain and simple. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick166 Rnd5 Jamon Dumas-Johnson
Jamon Dumas-Johnson in the 166th overall pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick169 Rnd5 Clay Webb
This one needs a full-page explanation: Clay Webb in pick 169, miles early. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
