Draft Grade — Eagles
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Eagles won the night they stopped Wilson from sliding. Grade: B.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Jared Wilson, pick No. 161, roughly 57 picks past where he belonged.

McLeod has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Cornerback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
In pick 32 they get a load in the middle, outstanding value to boot. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick64 Rnd2 Azareye'h Thomas
They did well to land Azareye'h Thomas in slot 64, just ahead of his grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick96 Rnd3 Charles Grant
Charles Grant at pick No. 96 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick134 Rnd4 Billy Bowman Jr.
They barely believed it either: Billy Bowman Jr. still on the board at Round 4, Pick 32. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick161 Rnd5 Jared Wilson
Somehow Jared Wilson was still sitting there in the 161st pick, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick164 Rnd5 Jeffrey Bassa
Jeffrey Bassa in the Round 5 slot is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick165 Rnd5 Kyle Williams
No drama and no debate, Kyle Williams went about where he belonged in No. 165. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick168 Rnd5 Jalen McLeod
They reached a country mile for Jalen McLeod at the 168th overall pick, and the board is aghast. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
