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

Boards are made to be trusted, and the Eagles shredded theirs for Clay Webb. He came off 24 spots early, and the room will hear about it. A dependable weekend that grades out a B-.

For all the activity, wide receiver went untouched, which is hard to explain. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Warren.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with cornerback chief among the fixes.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In slot 32 they get a matchup weapon at tight end, outstanding value to boot. A real need, handled.
Pick64 Rnd2 Alfred Collins
Alfred Collins is a better player than No. 64 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick96 Rnd3 Denzel Burke
They reached into another round for Denzel Burke, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick134 Rnd4 Hollin Pierce
Hollin Pierce in the 134th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick161 Rnd5 Elijah Roberts
This one needs a full-page explanation: Elijah Roberts in the Round 5 slot, miles early. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick164 Rnd5 Jack Kiser
Jack Kiser at pick No. 164 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick165 Rnd5 Que Robinson
A wild overpay on Que Robinson in Round 5, Pick 27, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick168 Rnd5 Clay Webb
They left a pile of value on the table to take Clay Webb this early at the 168th pick. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
