For all the boxes ticked, the Eagles skipped the loudest one: edge rusher is exactly as bare as it was.
Job largely done: cornerback settled and 4 of 9 of the wish list covered. They reloaded the coverage unit in bulk.
Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.
Pick-by-Pick
Terrion Arnold at Round 1, Pick 22 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the cornerback. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
A market-rate linebacker, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Junior Colson. A minor need, but a need all the same.
No edge and no loss on Kamren Kinchens in the 53rd pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
No drama and no debate, Jalen McMillan went about where he belonged in the Round 3 slot. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
They paid sticker price for Isaiah Davis in pick 160, and that is fine. It fills a real need, too.
Luke McCaffrey in pick No. 170 lands just on the right side of the ledger. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Jalyx Hunt in slot 171 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It does not line up with the team's obvious holes.
