Draft Grade — Eagles
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Eagles: B-.

Somehow the biggest item on the list survived the weekend. The Eagles never addressed edge rusher, and it is the kind of gap that lingers.

The cost of the Pegues reach is exactly the players who went right after him. On value alone, Emmanwori makes the weekend a net positive.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Nick Emmanwori
In the 32nd pick they get a two-high chess piece, and a steal at that.
Pick64 Rnd2 Maxwell Hairston
They liked Maxwell Hairston enough to skip the value, taking him in the 64th overall pick. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick96 Rnd3 Deone Walker
A slide stopped in the Round 3 slot, with Deone Walker worth more than the price. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick134 Rnd4 Tyler Shough
They took Tyler Shough at par in Round 4, Pick 32, which is nothing to complain about. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick161 Rnd5 Jack Nelson
Jack Nelson in slot 161 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. The roster fit checks out.
Pick164 Rnd5 JJ Pegues
JJ Pegues at pick No. 164 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick165 Rnd5 Jack Kiser
A reach for Jack Kiser in pick 165; a little patience would have been rewarded. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick168 Rnd5 Raheim Sanders
Raheim Sanders in No. 168 is fair value, right on his grade. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
