FutureB-
The Eagles got the worse of every deal, and it shows in the D. Nobody had Dayon Hayes this high, and it is not close. The Eagles reached 131 spots to get him at the 162nd pick.
They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. The James pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. A whole weekend of picks and tight end is somehow still a want.
Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even.
Pick Analysis
Pick32
Rnd1
Luther Burden III
In slot 32 they get a go-to option on the outside, and a steal at that. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick65
Rnd3
Demetrius Knight Jr.
Demetrius Knight Jr. at Round 3, Pick 1 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the linebacker. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick80
Rnd3
Andrew Mukuba
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Andrew Mukuba at pick No. 80. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick96
Rnd3
Charles Grant
They paid sticker price for Charles Grant in pick 96, and that is fine. It fills a real need, too.
Pick116
Rnd4
Will Howard
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Will Howard at the 116th pick is the proof. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick129
Rnd4
Jake Majors
Jake Majors at No. 129 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick144
Rnd5
Ryan Fitzgerald
They robbed the room for Ryan Fitzgerald here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick151
Rnd5
Hollin Pierce
Taking Hollin Pierce in the 151st pick is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick152
Rnd5
Cobee Bryant
A big swing on Cobee Bryant at slot 152, well ahead of any board in the building. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick162
Rnd5
Dayon Hayes
Dayon Hayes at pick No. 162 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick165
Rnd5
Jordan James
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Jordan James in the 165th overall pick, plain and simple. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick166
Rnd5
Shemar Turner
They barely believed it either: Shemar Turner still on the board at Round 5, Pick 27. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick169
Rnd5
LaJohntay Wester
A real head-scratcher, LaJohntay Wester in pick 169 is miles ahead of his ranking. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick181
Rnd6
Jordan Hancock
Jordan Hancock in No. 181 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick246
Rnd7
Marcus Yarns
Marcus Yarns slipping to the 246th overall pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
