When a board-topper like Olumuyiwa Fashanu slides to Round 2, Pick 21, you do not overthink it, and the Eagles did not. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

They punted on interior defensive lineman, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. A modest surplus at the table, banked quietly.

The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the interior defensive lineman spot they never got to.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.22 · Pick 22 · Taliese Fuaga · OT · rank 16
Taliese Fuaga at slot 22 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R2.20 · Pick 52 · Laiatu Latu · DL-EDGE · rank 10
They barely believed it either: Laiatu Latu still on the board at Round 2, Pick 20. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R2.21 · Pick 53 · Olumuyiwa Fashanu · OT · rank 8
A offensive lineman of that caliber at the 53rd pick is the definition of value, full stop. A need, and now a little less of one.
R4.20 · Pick 120 · Theo Johnson · TE · rank 122
They paid sticker price for Theo Johnson in the 120th overall pick, and that is fine. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R5.18 · Pick 154 · Luke McCaffrey · WR · rank 149
A tidy little value on Luke McCaffrey in pick 154, a step better than break-even. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R5.25 · Pick 161 · Tykee Smith · S · rank 160
Tykee Smith in the Round 5 slot is fair value, right on his grade. It fills a real need, too.
R5.35 · Pick 171 · Kamal Hadden · CB · rank 167
A clean, defensible pick in pick No. 171 with a little surplus value in Kamal Hadden. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R5.36 · Pick 172 · Sione Vaki · S · rank 158
Sione Vaki at No. 172 is money in the bank, a safety taken below his worth. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R6.21 · Pick 196 · Ro Torrence · CB · rank 179
They read the board right and Ro Torrence was the payoff at slot 196. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R6.34 · Pick 209 · Ty'Ron Hopper · LB · rank 181
Ty'Ron Hopper at pick 209 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
R6.35 · Pick 210 · Daijun Edwards · RB · rank 189
The board fumbled Daijun Edwards all the way to the Round 6 slot, and they scooped it up. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
