Draft Grade — Eagles
Overall C+
ValueC- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Eagles did enough to get by: C+.

Nobody had Derrick Moore this high, and it is not close. The Eagles reached 44 spots to get him at the 54th overall pick.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped cornerback, which is a strange place to end up. Landing Raridon that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. They went 4 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

A perfectly average weekend, for better and for worse.

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Romello Height
In Round 1, Pick 23 they get a disruptor off the edge, though they paid up to get him. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick54 Rnd2 Derrick Moore
Derrick Moore at pick No. 54 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick68 Rnd3 Tyreak Sapp
Value said wait; Tyreak Sapp in the Round 3 slot says they were not listening. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick98 Rnd3 Deion Burks
A straight-up fair deal on Deion Burks at No. 98, value and slot in agreement. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick122 Rnd4 Chase Bisontis
The board had Chase Bisontis higher than pick 122, and the offensive lineman fell to them anyway. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick137 Rnd4 Eli Raridon
A quiet steal in the 137th overall pick: Eli Raridon for less than the market said. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick151 Rnd5 Trey Moore
Trey Moore at the 151st overall pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick179 Rnd5 Patrick Payton
They reached into another round for Patrick Payton, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick201 Rnd6 Nolan Rucci
Nolan Rucci in the 201st pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
