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

The Eagles spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Javon Foster, the No. 128 name on the board, in the 170th overall pick.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up. They are betting Hicks proves the room right and everyone else wrong. Cornerback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Taliese Fuaga
In pick No. 22 they get an anchor for the offensive line. A real need, handled.
Pick50 Rnd2 Ennis Rakestraw Jr.
A tidy bit of business in slot 50, where Ennis Rakestraw Jr. graded well above the range. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick54 Rnd2 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
They took Jeremiah Trotter Jr. at par in the 54th pick, which is nothing to complain about. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick97 Rnd3 Jaden Hicks
They jumped the gun on Jaden Hicks, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick160 Rnd5 Cam Hart
They robbed the room for Cam Hart here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick170 Rnd5 Javon Foster
A offensive lineman of that caliber at No. 170 is the definition of value, full stop. It fills a real need, too.
Pick171 Rnd5 Curtis Jacobs
Curtis Jacobs in pick 171 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick178 Rnd6 Chau Smith-Wade
Nice patience on Chau Smith-Wade, who had no business lasting to the 178th overall pick. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick240 Rnd7 Isaiah Williams
They will replay Isaiah Williams at the Round 7 slot for years; that is how good the value is. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
