Draft Grade — Eagles
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Eagles won the night they stopped Moore from sliding. Grade: B-.

Thirty-one other rooms let Malachi Moore slide, and the Eagles were the ones holding the card at the 129th overall pick. Highway robbery.

They punted on cornerback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. If Kiner pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. Wide receiver was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Jalon Walker
In No. 32 they get a three-down second-level presence, and a steal at that. More want than need.
Pick64 Rnd2 Deone Walker
No drama and no debate, Deone Walker went about where he belonged in the 64th pick. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick96 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Donovan Jackson in Round 3, Pick 32. It fills a real need, too.
Pick129 Rnd4 Malachi Moore
Somehow Malachi Moore was still sitting there in pick 129, and they pounced on premier safety value. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick162 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Dont'e Thornton Jr. at the 162nd overall pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick166 Rnd5 Oronde Gadsden II
Oronde Gadsden II in slot 166 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick169 Rnd5 Corey Kiner
Corey Kiner at pick No. 169 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
