Draft Grade — Eagles
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B for the Eagles.

The Eagles torched the value chart for Isaac Rex, taking him 49 spots sooner than anyone had him slotted.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped interior defensive lineman, which is a strange place to end up. The McConkey steal is the beam this whole class leans on. The roster is better shaped than it was, with cornerback chief among the fixes.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but interior defensive lineman.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Cooper DeJean
In pick No. 22 they get a press-man option on the boundary at a price that makes it sweeter. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick50 Rnd2 Ladd McConkey
A slide stopped in the 50th overall pick, with Ladd McConkey worth more than the price. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick54 Rnd2 Tyler Guyton
Value with a capital V on Tyler Guyton in slot 54, a genuine coup. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick97 Rnd3 Beau Brade
Beau Brade at No. 97 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick137 Rnd5 Austin Booker
A big swing on Austin Booker at Round 5, Pick 1, well ahead of any board in the building. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick163 Rnd5 Layden Robinson
A straight-up fair deal on Layden Robinson at pick 163, value and slot in agreement. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick172 Rnd5 Michael Barrett
Michael Barrett at slot 172 is a conviction pick that outran the value. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick178 Rnd6 Frank Gore Jr.
Frank Gore Jr. in Round 6, Pick 3 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick243 Rnd7 Isaac Rex
Isaac Rex at pick 243 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
