Draft Grade — Eagles
Overall C
ValueB NeedB+ TradesF FutureB-
The Eagles lost the trade table, and the C tells the story.

The phones were a trap the Eagles kept walking into, shipping out surplus on nearly every deal.

The Milton III reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. The interior defensive lineman spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

They banked enough surplus on Mustapha to cover a lot of smaller sins. Value over need was the throughline, for better and worse.

If Nate Wiggins and a couple of the gambles land, hindsight will be kinder than this grade.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Nate Wiggins
A clean, defensible pick in pick 22 with a little surplus value in Nate Wiggins. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick53 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
Kingsley Suamataia at the 53rd overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick57 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
A quiet steal in the Round 2 slot: Edgerrin Cooper for less than the market said. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick69 Rnd3 Xavier Worthy
Xavier Worthy is a better player than Round 3, Pick 5 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick89 Rnd3 Marshawn Kneeland
Marshawn Kneeland in slot 89 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick97 Rnd3 Braelon Allen
The board had cheaper options than Braelon Allen at the 97th pick, and it noticed. It fills a real need, too.
Pick160 Rnd5 AJ Barner
No edge and no loss on AJ Barner in No. 160; it is a wash and a sensible one. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick170 Rnd5 Malik Mustapha
Value with a capital V on Malik Mustapha in pick No. 170, a genuine coup. The roster fit checks out.
Pick178 Rnd6 Joe Milton III
Joe Milton III at Round 6, Pick 3 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick240 Rnd7 Sheridan Jones
They read the board right and Sheridan Jones was the payoff at pick No. 240. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
