Draft Grade — Eagles
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Eagles: B.

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Joe Milton III, 28 picks early at slot 172.

They will regret leaving wide receiver for another day if the season turns on it. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took McGlothern.

The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but wide receiver.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Terrion Arnold
In No. 22 they get a press-man option on the boundary at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick50 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
No edge and no loss on Edgerrin Cooper in pick No. 50; it is a wash and a sensible one. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick53 Rnd2 Adisa Isaac
By-the-book stuff, Adisa Isaac at the 53rd pick squarely in line with his ranking. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick120 Rnd4 Blake Fisher
A reasonable price with a little left over, Blake Fisher in slot 120. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick161 Rnd5 Sione Vaki
A clean, defensible pick in the Round 5 slot with a little surplus value in Sione Vaki. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick171 Rnd5 Dwight McGlothern
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Dwight McGlothern at the 171st overall pick. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick172 Rnd5 Joe Milton III
This one needs a full-page explanation: Joe Milton III in No. 172, miles early. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick210 Rnd6 Jared Wiley
Fair-plus on Jared Wiley, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. The roster fit checks out.
