Draft Grade — Eagles
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Eagles let Wilson fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

You build a draft on nights like this. Jared Wilson had no business being available in pick No. 169, and the Eagles did the only sane thing and turned in the card.

Leaving cornerback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. On the needs board they went 5 of 9, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Jalon Walker
In No. 32 they get a green-dot type in the middle at a price that makes it sweeter.
Pick64 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
Nick Emmanwori at the 64th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick96 Rnd3 Mason Taylor
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Mason Taylor in slot 96. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick129 Rnd4 Jordan Phillips
Jordan Phillips in the 129th pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick162 Rnd5 Hollin Pierce
Circle this one: Hollin Pierce at Round 5, Pick 23 is a fall that decides a draft. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick166 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
A conviction pick on Dont'e Thornton Jr. at the Round 5 slot that the board grades a round light. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick169 Rnd5 Jared Wilson
Jared Wilson in pick No. 169 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It fills a real need, too.
