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

If confidence were a draft strategy, the Eagles would have aced it. Marvin Jones Jr. at the 243rd pick is 95 spots clear of where he belonged. The bottom line is a respectable B-.

They punted on cornerback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Lew. The trade work was a quiet net positive.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with edge rusher chief among the fixes.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 R Mason Thomas
In the Round 1 slot they get a disruptor off the edge, reach and all. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick59 Rnd2 Nicholas Singleton
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Nicholas Singleton. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick68 Rnd3 Caden Curry
They reached into another round for Caden Curry, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick98 Rnd3 Connor Lew
Connor Lew slid further than he should have, and No. 98 is lovely value for the offensive lineman. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick114 Rnd4 Jalen Farmer
A clean, defensible pick in pick No. 114 with a little surplus value in Jalen Farmer. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick137 Rnd4 Kaleb Proctor
By-the-book stuff, Kaleb Proctor at pick 137 squarely in line with his ranking. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick178 Rnd5 Taylen Green
They paid a round early for Taylen Green in the 178th pick, more than the board wanted. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick197 Rnd6 Patrick Payton
A wild overpay on Patrick Payton in the 197th overall pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick243 Rnd7 Marvin Jones Jr.
Value said wait; Marvin Jones Jr. in Round 7, Pick 27 says they were not listening. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
