FutureB-
The Eagles let Trotter fall into their laps, and walked away with a D-. Nobody else had Micah Morris anywhere near Round 6, Pick 34. The Eagles did, by 33 spots, and that gap is the whole story.
The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer.
They banked enough surplus on Trotter to cover a lot of smaller sins.
Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and edge rusher is still a hole.
Pick Analysis
Pick23
Rnd1
Kenyon Sadiq
In pick 23 they get a matchup weapon at tight end at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick54
Rnd2
Michael Taaffe
Nothing to complain about; Michael Taaffe went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. The roster fit checks out.
Pick62
Rnd2
Lee Hunter
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Lee Hunter. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick68
Rnd3
Brian Parker II
Brian Parker II at pick No. 68 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It fills a real need, too.
Pick85
Rnd3
Keionte Scott
You do not let a cornerback like Keionte Scott reach the Round 3 slot and blink. They did not. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick99
Rnd3
Josiah Trotter
Josiah Trotter at slot 99 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick122
Rnd4
Bryce Lance
Bryce Lance at the 122nd overall pick is money in the bank, a wide receiver taken below his worth. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick137
Rnd4
Max Iheanachor
They paid sticker price for Max Iheanachor in pick 137, and that is fine. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick151
Rnd5
Davison Igbinosun
Davison Igbinosun at the 151st pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick179
Rnd5
Bud Clark
A straight-up fair deal on Bud Clark at Round 5, Pick 41, value and slot in agreement. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick201
Rnd6
Jalon Daniels
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Jalon Daniels at pick No. 201 is the proof. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick213
Rnd6
Micah Morris
Micah Morris at No. 213 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick214
Rnd6
Jack Velling
The board had cheaper options than Jack Velling at the Round 6 slot, and it noticed. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick224
Rnd7
Dominic Zvada
They took Dominic Zvada at par in the 224th pick, which is nothing to complain about. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
