Thirty-one other rooms let Quinyon Mitchell slide, and the Eagles were the ones holding the card at slot 67. Highway robbery.

They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Bottom line, with Kamari Lassiter leading the way, this is a class that should pay off fast and rarely be regretted.

Pick-by-Pick

R2.8 · Pick 40 · Kamari Lassiter · CB · rank 26
Kamari Lassiter at slot 40 is money in the bank, a cornerback taken below his worth. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R2.28 · Pick 60 · Brian Thomas Jr. · WR · rank 27
Brian Thomas Jr. at pick 60 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R3.1 · Pick 65 · Xavier Worthy · WR · rank 43
Circle this one: Xavier Worthy at pick No. 65 is a fall that decides a draft. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R3.3 · Pick 67 · Quinyon Mitchell · CB · rank 30
Taking Quinyon Mitchell in the Round 3 slot is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R3.34 · Pick 97 · Marist Liufau · LB · rank 86
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Marist Liufau in Round 3, Pick 34. A minor itch, scratched.
R3.36 · Pick 99 · Tykee Smith · S · rank 97
Tykee Smith in the 99th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The roster fit checks out.
R4.4 · Pick 104 · Dominick Puni · OT · rank 103
A straight-up fair deal on Dominick Puni at No. 104, value and slot in agreement. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R5.1 · Pick 137 · Matt Goncalves · OT · rank 106
Somehow Matt Goncalves was still sitting there in the 137th pick, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R5.5 · Pick 141 · Cole Bishop · S · rank 129
The board had Cole Bishop higher than Round 5, Pick 5, and the safety fell to them anyway. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R5.27 · Pick 163 · Cam Hart · CB · rank 137
They will replay Cam Hart at pick No. 163 for years; that is how good the value is. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R5.36 · Pick 172 · Braelon Allen · RB · rank 155
Braelon Allen slid further than he should have, and slot 172 is lovely value for the running back. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R6.3 · Pick 178 · Jaylen Wright · RB · rank 158
Steal is underselling it; Jaylen Wright at the 178th overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R6.6 · Pick 181 · AJ Barner · TE · rank 193
A reach for AJ Barner in the Round 6 slot; a little patience would have been rewarded. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R7.5 · Pick 225 · Christian Jones · OT · rank 197
Christian Jones in the 225th pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A need, and now a little less of one.
R7.23 · Pick 243 · Taulia Tagovailoa · QB · rank 227
A slide stopped in pick 243, with Taulia Tagovailoa worth more than the price. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
