Philadelphia Eagles

A solid, sensible weekend for the Eagles: B-.

Future A-

The Eagles looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Carter Bradley at the 240th overall pick regardless, 111 picks early. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.

However the rest shakes out, Neyor at that price is a win they earned. They punted on interior defensive lineman, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

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

Pick-by-Pick

R1.22 · Pick 22 · Kool-Aid McKinstry · CB · rank 19
In pick No. 22 they get a press-man option on the boundary. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
R2.22 · Pick 54 · Jeremiah Trotter Jr. · LB · rank 59
By-the-book stuff, Jeremiah Trotter Jr. at the Round 2 slot squarely in line with his ranking. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
R3.36 · Pick 99 · Tykee Smith · S · rank 96
Nothing to complain about; Tykee Smith went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R4.20 · Pick 120 · Malik Washington · WR · rank 120
A straight-up fair deal on Malik Washington at Round 4, Pick 20, value and slot in agreement. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R5.24 · Pick 160 · Layden Robinson · OG · rank 173
They paid a round early for Layden Robinson in pick 160, more than the board wanted. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R5.34 · Pick 170 · Grayson Murphy · DL-EDGE · rank 174
Grayson Murphy at No. 170 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R5.35 · Pick 171 · Chau Smith-Wade · CB · rank 168
Chau Smith-Wade in the 171st overall pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R6.3 · Pick 178 · Frank Gore Jr. · RB · rank 177
They paid sticker price for Frank Gore Jr. in slot 178, and that is fine. A need, and now a little less of one.
R6.12 · Pick 187 · Curtis Jacobs · LB · rank 185
They took Curtis Jacobs at par in pick 187, which is nothing to complain about. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
R7.17 · Pick 237 · Jeremy Flax · OT · rank 252
They liked Jeremy Flax enough to skip the value, taking him in Round 7, Pick 17. The roster fit checks out.
R7.18 · Pick 238 · Tanner McLachlan · TE · rank 290
This one needs a full-page explanation: Tanner McLachlan in No. 238, miles early. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R7.20 · Pick 240 · Carter Bradley · QB · rank 351
They left a pile of value on the table to take Carter Bradley this early at pick No. 240. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R7.26 · Pick 246 · Isaiah Neyor · WR · rank 233
A slide stopped in the 246th pick, with Isaiah Neyor worth more than the price. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
