Draft Grade — Eagles
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesA- FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B for the Eagles.

Nobody had Davin Vann this high, and it is not close. The Eagles reached 46 spots to get him at pick 228.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Campbell. Leaving running back unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

They went 8 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. The trade work was a quiet net positive.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
In the 32nd overall pick they get a pocket-collapsing interior rusher, and a steal at that. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick64 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
A linebacker of that caliber at Round 2, Pick 32 is the definition of value, full stop. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick86 Rnd3 Gunnar Helm
Gunnar Helm at the 86th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick97 Rnd3 Charles Grant
A clean, defensible pick in pick 97 with a little surplus value in Charles Grant. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick125 Rnd4 Tez Johnson
Tez Johnson in the Round 4 slot is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick130 Rnd4 Malachi Moore
A conviction pick on Malachi Moore at pick No. 130 that the board grades a round light. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick134 Rnd4 Mello Dotson
Mello Dotson at pick 134 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick158 Rnd5 Tyler Shough
A tidy bit of business in No. 158, where Tyler Shough graded well above the range. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick161 Rnd5 Willie Lampkin
Willie Lampkin in the 161st pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick164 Rnd5 Vernon Broughton
Vernon Broughton at Round 5, Pick 26 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick165 Rnd5 Jalen McLeod
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jalen McLeod well ahead of where he belonged. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick168 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
A premium they did not need to pay, Dont'e Thornton Jr. a notch or two before his time. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick181 Rnd6 Oronde Gadsden II
They paid a round early for Oronde Gadsden II in the 181st overall pick, more than the board wanted. It fills a real need, too.
Pick196 Rnd6 Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson
Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson in the Round 6 slot is fair value, right on his grade. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick199 Rnd6 Craig Woodson
Craig Woodson at Round 6, Pick 23 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick228 Rnd7 Davin Vann
A big swing on Davin Vann at slot 228, well ahead of any board in the building. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
