Draft Grade — Eagles
Overall B
ValueC NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
The Eagles worked the phones like thieves and earned a B.

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Patrick Payton, 73 picks early at the 178th overall pick.

They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. The running back hole is the one line item this class does not answer. On the needs board they went 8 of 9, with cornerback the one that mattered most.

JuJu Smith-Schuster gives the group a proven body among the projects.

Good work on the whole, with running back the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Chris Johnson
In pick No. 29 they get a sticky cover corner. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick43 Rnd2 Max Iheanachor
Max Iheanachor at pick 43 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick68 Rnd3 Max Klare
The board had cheaper options than Max Klare at No. 68, and it noticed. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick74 Rnd3 Michael Taaffe
Good price on Michael Taaffe in the 74th overall pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick111 Rnd4 Caden Curry
A reach for Caden Curry in slot 111; a little patience would have been rewarded. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick122 Rnd4 CJ Daniels
CJ Daniels at the Round 4 slot is a conviction pick that outran the value. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick137 Rnd4 Jaeden Roberts
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jaeden Roberts. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick148 Rnd5 DJ Campbell
DJ Campbell in pick No. 148 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It fills a real need, too.
Pick153 Rnd5 Taylen Green
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Taylen Green well ahead of where he belonged. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick178 Rnd5 Patrick Payton
This one needs a full-page explanation: Patrick Payton in No. 178, miles early. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick210 Rnd6 Trey Zuhn III
A big swing on Trey Zuhn III at slot 210, well ahead of any board in the building. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick215 Rnd6 Daevin Hobbs
Daevin Hobbs in the Round 6 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
