There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Eagles started one anyway for Kendall Milton, 40 picks ahead of schedule.
The trade table is where this weekend went wrong. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up.
That Corley pick is the receipt they will wave around later.
A rough weekend that leaves the roster with more questions than answers.
Pick-by-Pick
Nate Wiggins in the 22nd pick is fair value, right on his grade. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
In the 27th overall pick they get a coverage-and-run second-level piece, a steep price for the projection.
They will replay Tyler Guyton at pick No. 50 for years; that is how good the value is. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Taking Malachi Corley in slot 90 is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Christian Mahogany in No. 98 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Ben Sinnott. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
They talked themselves into Kendall Milton at slot 161, and the board did not agree. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint well ahead of where he belonged. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
