For all the names on the card, the loudest question went unanswered. The Eagles walked out of the weekend still thin at interior defensive lineman, a hole that has a way of deciding seasons. Call it a C+ and check back in two years.

The Davis pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. Cornerback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

Hit on Nate Wiggins and the swing picks, and this ages a lot better than it grades today.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.22 · Pick 22 · Nate Wiggins · CB · rank 20
In slot 22 they get a press-man option on the boundary. The biggest hole, addressed.
R2.18 · Pick 50 · Xavier Worthy · WR · rank 55
Xavier Worthy at the Round 2 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R2.21 · Pick 53 · Payton Wilson · LB · rank 57
By-the-book stuff, Payton Wilson at No. 53 squarely in line with his ranking. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
R4.20 · Pick 120 · Blake Fisher · OT · rank 117
Good price on Blake Fisher in Round 4, Pick 20, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R5.7 · Pick 143 · Kalen King · CB · rank 139
Kalen King at pick No. 143 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R5.25 · Pick 161 · Tykee Smith · S · rank 160
Tykee Smith in the 161st pick is fair value, right on his grade. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R5.35 · Pick 171 · Javion Cohen · OG · rank 169
Javion Cohen at the 171st overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
R5.36 · Pick 172 · Isaiah Davis · RB · rank 156
A quiet steal in pick 172: Isaiah Davis for less than the market said. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R6.12 · Pick 187 · Ty'Ron Hopper · LB · rank 181
Ty'Ron Hopper at the 187th overall pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the linebacker. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
R6.35 · Pick 210 · Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint · WR · rank 195
They let Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint come to them and pounced at pick No. 210. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R7.5 · Pick 225 · Cedric Johnson · DE-EDGE · rank 225
They took Cedric Johnson at par in the 225th pick, which is nothing to complain about. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R7.33 · Pick 253 · Brevyn Spann-Ford · TE · rank 249
Brevyn Spann-Ford in pick 253 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
