Draft Grade — Eagles
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesC+ FutureB-
Grand theft in slot 96: the Eagles steal Higgins and grade out a B.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Jayden Higgins got past him. The Eagles do not have to explain a thing at No. 96. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Job largely done: cornerback settled and 4 of 9 of the wish list covered.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
In slot 32 they get an anchor for the defensive front, outstanding value to boot. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick64 Rnd2 Demetrius Knight Jr.
They did well to land Demetrius Knight Jr. in the 64th overall pick, just ahead of his grade. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick96 Rnd3 Jayden Higgins
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Jayden Higgins in pick No. 96, plain and simple. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick134 Rnd4 Hollin Pierce
Hollin Pierce at the 134th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick165 Rnd5 Tommi Hill
A tidy little value on Tommi Hill in Round 5, Pick 27, a step better than break-even. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick168 Rnd5 Seth McLaughlin
A straight-up fair deal on Seth McLaughlin at the Round 5 slot, value and slot in agreement. A need, and now a little less of one.
