Draft Grade — Eagles
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesC+ FutureC+
The Eagles checked most of the boxes and earned a B-.

The Eagles clearly saw something nobody else did in Jared Ivey, taking him 27 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.

Taylor falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick37 Rnd2 Walter Nolen
Walter Nolen at No. 37 is money in the bank, a interior defensive lineman taken below his worth. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick52 Rnd2 Jared Ivey
They reached a country mile for Jared Ivey at the 52nd overall pick, and the board is aghast. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick96 Rnd3 Mason Taylor
The board fumbled Mason Taylor all the way to pick 96, and they scooped it up. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick108 Rnd4 Jacob Parrish
They liked Jacob Parrish enough to skip the value, taking him in pick No. 108. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick134 Rnd4 Cody Simon
A clean, defensible pick in Round 4, Pick 32 with a little surplus value in Cody Simon. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick143 Rnd5 Malachi Moore
Nothing to complain about; Malachi Moore went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick161 Rnd5 Ajani Cornelius
Ajani Cornelius in No. 161 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick164 Rnd5 Jaydon Blue
A conviction pick on Jaydon Blue at the Round 5 slot that the board grades a round light. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick165 Rnd5 Vernon Broughton
A big swing on Vernon Broughton at slot 165, well ahead of any board in the building. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick168 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
A reach on Dont'e Thornton Jr. in pick 168; the board had better options right there. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick180 Rnd6 Jonah Monheim
Jonah Monheim in Round 6, Pick 4 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
