The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Eagles watched Cody Simon slide 32 picks past his grade and did not hesitate. The bottom line is a respectable B.
The phones were where this weekend was really won. For all the activity, cornerback went untouched, which is hard to explain. They are betting the present roster is worth a lighter draft next spring.
Good work on the whole, with cornerback the one box left unchecked.
Pick-by-Pick
Tyler Warren at pick No. 36 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Cody Simon at the 167th pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
A straight-up fair deal on John Williams at pick 243, value and slot in agreement. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
