The Eagles cashed the board's mistake on Lew: C.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Eagles were there to profit. Connor Lew, the No. 65 name on the board, should have been long gone before pick No. 98.

Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere. That interior defensive lineman hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. Campbell has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.

So much rides on Avieon Terrell that the real verdict is a season or two away.

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Avieon Terrell
Avieon Terrell in Round 1, Pick 23 lands just on the right side of the ledger. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick54 Rnd2 Caleb Banks
Caleb Banks at the Round 2 slot is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick68 Rnd3 Eli Stowers
Eli Stowers at slot 68 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. The roster fit checks out.
Pick94 Rnd3 Josiah Trotter
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Josiah Trotter in pick 94, plain and simple. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick98 Rnd3 Connor Lew
Connor Lew at the 98th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick122 Rnd4 Zachariah Branch
Zachariah Branch is a better player than pick No. 122 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick137 Rnd4 Kage Casey
No drama and no debate, Kage Casey went about where he belonged in the 137th pick. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick151 Rnd5 DJ Campbell
They liked DJ Campbell enough to skip the value, taking him in No. 151. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick168 Rnd5 Eric McAlister
Eric McAlister at slot 168 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick179 Rnd5 Oscar Delp
They read the board right and Oscar Delp was the payoff at the 179th pick. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick201 Rnd6 Peyton Bowen
Peyton Bowen at the 201st overall pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick246 Rnd7 Haynes King
Haynes King in pick 246 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick251 Rnd7 Ja'Keem Jackson
They paid sticker price for Ja'Keem Jackson in pick No. 251, and that is fine. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
