Nobody had Zion Logue this high, and it is not close. The Eagles reached 76 spots to get him at pick 210.
That cornerback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. Wide receiver was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.
Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.
It nets out as a middle-of-the-pack haul that neither helps nor hurts much.
Pick-by-Pick
In No. 22 they get a plug-and-play piece up front. A real need, handled.
They jumped the gun on Javon Bullard, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
They reached into another round for Sedrick Van Pran, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Value said wait; Tykee Smith in pick 98 says they were not listening. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
They reached a country mile for Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint at the 161st pick, and the board is aghast. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Daijun Edwards at slot 171 is a conviction pick that outran the value. The roster fit checks out.
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Kendall Milton well ahead of where he belonged. It fills a real need, too.
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Zion Logue. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
