Future B-

You build a draft on nights like this. Garret Greenfield had no business being available in the Round 7 slot, and the Eagles did the only sane thing and turned in the card. Call it a sensible B+, earned the boring way.

The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. They are betting Nugent proves the room right and everyone else wrong. They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.24 · Pick 24 · Quinyon Mitchell · CB · rank 20
Quinyon Mitchell at No. 24 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R2.21 · Pick 53 · Kamren Kinchens · S · rank 57
They took Kamren Kinchens at par in the Round 2 slot, which is nothing to complain about. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
R3.2 · Pick 66 · Jeremiah Trotter Jr. · LB · rank 60
Good price on Jeremiah Trotter Jr. in pick No. 66, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
R3.24 · Pick 87 · Calen Bullock · S · rank 73
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Calen Bullock at slot 87 is the proof. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R3.30 · Pick 93 · Javon Baker · WR · rank 93
By-the-book stuff, Javon Baker at pick 93 squarely in line with his ranking. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R3.34 · Pick 97 · Xavier Legette · WR · rank 72
Xavier Legette at the 97th pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R4.34 · Pick 134 · Jarvis Brownlee Jr. · CB · rank 112
Jarvis Brownlee Jr. at Round 4, Pick 34 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R5.24 · Pick 160 · Roger Rosengarten · OT · rank 145
A tidy bit of business in the 160th overall pick, where Roger Rosengarten graded well above the range. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R5.34 · Pick 170 · Drake Nugent · C · rank 202
They reached into another round for Drake Nugent, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R5.35 · Pick 171 · Dillon Johnson · RB · rank 169
Dillon Johnson in the 171st overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R5.37 · Pick 173 · Jalyx Hunt · S-EDGE · rank 170
Jalyx Hunt at pick 173 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the S-EDGE. A fine player at a spot low on the priority list.
R6.3 · Pick 178 · Sione Vaki · S · rank 168
Sione Vaki is a better player than pick No. 178 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A need, and now a little less of one.
R6.14 · Pick 189 · Kamal Hadden · CB · rank 166
They barely believed it either: Kamal Hadden still on the board at Round 6, Pick 14. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R7.11 · Pick 231 · Michael Barrett · LB · rank 217
Value with a capital V on Michael Barrett in slot 231, a genuine coup. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
R7.34 · Pick 254 · Garret Greenfield · OT · rank 219
Garret Greenfield in the Round 7 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The roster fit checks out.
