Draft Grade — Eagles
Overall C+
ValueD+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Eagles did enough to get by: C+.

The Eagles did not so much draft Gabe Jacas as overpay for him, 49 picks clear of his grade. It sets an uneasy tone for the weekend.

For all the activity, interior defensive lineman went untouched, which is hard to explain. The Cooper Jr. steal is the beam this whole class leans on.

Job largely done: cornerback settled and 7 of 9 of the wish list covered.

So much rides on Romello Height that the real verdict is a season or two away.

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Romello Height
In the 23rd overall pick they get a problem off the edge, a steep price for the projection. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick54 Rnd2 Gabe Jacas
Gabe Jacas at the 54th pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick68 Rnd3 Anthony Lucas
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Anthony Lucas well ahead of where he belonged. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick98 Rnd3 Omar Cooper Jr.
The board had Omar Cooper Jr. higher than slot 98, and the wide receiver fell to them anyway. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick122 Rnd4 Bishop Fitzgerald
Bishop Fitzgerald at pick No. 122 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick136 Rnd4 DJ McKinney
Good price on DJ McKinney in Round 4, Pick 36, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick151 Rnd5 Terrance Carter Jr.
No drama and no debate, Terrance Carter Jr. went about where he belonged in the Round 5 slot. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick179 Rnd5 J'Mari Taylor
J'Mari Taylor is a better player than No. 179 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick203 Rnd6 Isaiah Jatta
A straight-up fair deal on Isaiah Jatta at the 203rd overall pick, value and slot in agreement. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
