Draft Grade — Eagles
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Eagles kept it disciplined and banked a B-.

Some picks age like wine; Curtis Jacobs at the Round 5 slot will need to, sitting 27 spots clear of his grade. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.

Johnson at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up. They went 4 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Jackson Powers-Johnson
In No. 22 they get a blindside protector, reach and all. A real need, handled.
Pick50 Rnd2 Kamren Kinchens
They jumped the gun on Kamren Kinchens, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick53 Rnd2 T.J. Tampa
T.J. Tampa at pick No. 53 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick120 Rnd4 Tommy Eichenberg
Tommy Eichenberg at slot 120 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick161 Rnd5 Javion Cohen
A reach for Javion Cohen in the 161st pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick171 Rnd5 Curtis Jacobs
Value said wait; Curtis Jacobs in Round 5, Pick 35 says they were not listening. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick172 Rnd5 Layden Robinson
Layden Robinson in slot 172 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick210 Rnd6 Cornelius Johnson
Somehow Cornelius Johnson was still sitting there in the 210th pick, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
