Draft Grade — Eagles
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
Grand theft in the 169th overall pick: the Eagles steal Belton and grade out a B.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Eagles watched Anthony Belton slide 49 picks past his grade and did not hesitate.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through cornerback. The roster is better shaped than it was, with edge rusher chief among the fixes.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Jalon Walker
In the Round 1 slot they get a coverage-and-run second-level piece, outstanding value to boot.
Pick64 Rnd2 Ashton Gillotte
Ashton Gillotte at Round 2, Pick 32 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the edge rusher. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick96 Rnd3 Malachi Moore
No drama and no debate, Malachi Moore went about where he belonged in the 96th overall pick. It fills a real need, too.
Pick129 Rnd4 Tai Felton
Somehow Tai Felton was still sitting there in slot 129, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick166 Rnd5 Oronde Gadsden II
Oronde Gadsden II at pick No. 166 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick169 Rnd5 Anthony Belton
They robbed the room for Anthony Belton here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick173 Rnd5 Andres Borregales
Andres Borregales in pick 173 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick212 Rnd6 Ja'Quinden Jackson
Ja'Quinden Jackson in No. 212 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
