The Eagles spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Ar'maj Reed-Adams, the No. 174 name on the board, in the Round 6 slot. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.
If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through running back. They are betting Lawrence proves the room right and everyone else wrong.
Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.
Pick-by-Pick
Kenyon Sadiq slipping to the 28th overall pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
A premium they did not need to pay, Malachi Lawrence a notch or two before his time. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Jake Slaughter at slot 73 is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
They let Kamari Ramsey come to them and pounced at the 91st pick. It fills a real need, too.
Nice patience on Skyler Bell, who had no business lasting to Round 3, Pick 34. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
A reach for Isaiah World in pick 131; a little patience would have been rewarded. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on DeMonte Capehart. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Malik Benson at pick No. 137 is a conviction pick that outran the value. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Beau Stephens at the 171st pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Taylen Green at the 178th overall pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
A straight-up fair deal on Kaleb Elarms-Orr at Round 6, Pick 1, value and slot in agreement. A minor itch, scratched.
Ar'maj Reed-Adams at pick No. 197 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Brent Austin in slot 247 is fair value, right on his grade. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
