The rest of the league will want that one back. Devin Neal tumbling to the Eagles in pick 164 is a gift they did not have to think twice about.
If Taylor pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped cornerback, which is a strange place to end up.
In the end it comes back to Donovan Ezeiruaku, and a haul good enough to build on right away.
Pick-by-Pick
Donovan Ezeiruaku at the 55th pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Luke Kandra at the Round 3 slot is a conviction pick that outran the value. A need, and now a little less of one.
Kevin Winston Jr. at pick 128 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
You do not let a tight end like Oronde Gadsden II reach pick No. 160 and blink. They did not. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Devin Neal at No. 164 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Smael Mondon Jr. in the 170th overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
A big swing on Roc Taylor at Round 6, Pick 32, well ahead of any board in the building. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Raheim Sanders at slot 218 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
