Draft Grade — Eagles
Overall D-
ValueB- NeedB TradesF FutureB-
The Eagles lost the trade table, and the D- tells the story.

When the story of this class is written, it opens with Howard Cross III at Round 5, Pick 26, a reach of 58 spots that the board flatly disagrees with. It grades a D-, and the process earned it.

They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. The running back hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Peebles.

It is a steep hill from here, and the grade knows it.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In the 32nd overall pick they get a matchup weapon at tight end, outstanding value to boot.
Pick63 Rnd2 Demetrius Knight Jr.
Demetrius Knight Jr. at the 63rd pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the linebacker. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick64 Rnd2 Xavier Restrepo
No drama and no debate, Xavier Restrepo went about where he belonged in the Round 2 slot. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick97 Rnd3 David Walker
They paid a round early for David Walker in pick 97, more than the board wanted. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick133 Rnd4 Kyle McCord
Kyle McCord in pick No. 133 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick134 Rnd4 Hollin Pierce
No edge and no loss on Hollin Pierce in No. 134; it is a wash and a sensible one. The roster fit checks out.
Pick143 Rnd5 Jackson Slater
By-the-book stuff, Jackson Slater at pick No. 143 squarely in line with his ranking. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick156 Rnd5 Malachi Moore
Malachi Moore in slot 156 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick161 Rnd5 Oronde Gadsden II
Oronde Gadsden II at No. 161 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick164 Rnd5 Howard Cross III
A real head-scratcher, Howard Cross III in the 164th pick is miles ahead of his ranking. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick165 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Dont'e Thornton Jr. at the 165th overall pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick168 Rnd5 Aeneas Peebles
Circle this one: Aeneas Peebles at Round 5, Pick 30 is a fall that decides a draft. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick180 Rnd6 Jay Higgins
Value said wait; Jay Higgins in pick 180 says they were not listening. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick187 Rnd6 Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson
A conviction pick on Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson at the Round 6 slot that the board grades a round light. It fills a real need, too.
Pick226 Rnd7 Craig Woodson
Craig Woodson is a better player than the 226th pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick251 Rnd7 Jaylin Smith
A reach for Jaylin Smith in No. 251; a little patience would have been rewarded. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
