Draft Grade — Eagles

ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Eagles a B-.

There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Eagles started one anyway for Tyrion Ingram-Dawkins, 30 picks ahead of schedule.

They banked enough surplus on Shough to cover a lot of smaller sins. They will answer for taking linebacker early while wide receiver, offensive lineman and other spots went begging. For all the activity, wide receiver went untouched, which is hard to explain.

Job largely done: cornerback settled and 5 of 9 of the wish list covered.

Good work on the whole, with wide receiver the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Jalon Walker
In pick 32 they get a coverage-and-run second-level piece at a price that makes it sweeter.
Pick64 Rnd2 Jared Ivey
A reach for Jared Ivey in the 64th pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick96 Rnd3 Jeffrey Bassa
A surprising call. With wide receiver, offensive lineman and other spots still to address, they spent pick No. 96 on Jeffrey Bassa, a linebacker they were not short of.
Pick134 Rnd4 Mello Dotson
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Mello Dotson. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick161 Rnd5 Ty Robinson
They went early on Ty Robinson in the 161st overall pick, and the value did not follow. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick164 Rnd5 Jake Briningstool
They paid up for Jake Briningstool at the Round 5 slot when waiting would have done the job. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick165 Rnd5 Tyrion Ingram-Dawkins
They left a pile of value on the table to take Tyrion Ingram-Dawkins this early at the Round 5 slot. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick168 Rnd5 Tyler Shough
They robbed the room for Tyler Shough here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
