Draft Grade — Eagles
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Eagles cashed the board's mistake on Sanker: B-.

You build a draft on nights like this. Jonas Sanker had no business being available in the 164th pick, and the Eagles did the only sane thing and turned in the card. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.

A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. Reaching for Peebles left real value on the table behind him.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Aireontae Ersery
In slot 32 they get a cornerstone up front, even if it was a touch early.
Pick64 Rnd2 Omarr Norman-Lott
They paid up for Omarr Norman-Lott at Round 2, Pick 32 when waiting would have done the job. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick96 Rnd3 Darien Porter
Darien Porter in the 96th overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick134 Rnd4 Aeneas Peebles
They went early on Aeneas Peebles in the Round 4 slot, and the value did not follow. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick161 Rnd5 LeQuint Allen
They barely believed it either: LeQuint Allen still on the board at pick 161. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick164 Rnd5 Jonas Sanker
A top-tier safety at a bargain, Jonas Sanker in No. 164, plain and simple. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick165 Rnd5 Pat Bryant
Pat Bryant at pick No. 165 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick168 Rnd5 O'Donnell Fortune
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing O'Donnell Fortune in the 168th pick. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
