Draft Grade — Eagles
Overall C+
ValueD+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Some hits, some head-scratchers, and a C+ for the Eagles.

The Eagles torched the value chart for Christian Jones, taking him 53 spots sooner than anyone had him slotted. A weekend of give and take that grades a C+.

They will regret leaving cornerback for another day if the season turns on it. They went 6 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.

It nets out as a middle-of-the-pack haul that neither helps nor hurts much.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Edgerrin Cooper
In pick No. 27 they get a three-down second-level presence, a steep price for the projection. More want than need.
Pick50 Rnd2 Javon Bullard
They paid a round early for Javon Bullard in the Round 2 slot, more than the board wanted. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick59 Rnd2 Adisa Isaac
They paid sticker price for Adisa Isaac in pick 59, and that is fine. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick97 Rnd3 Ben Sinnott
Ben Sinnott at the 97th overall pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It fills a real need, too.
Pick137 Rnd5 Christian Jones
They reached a country mile for Christian Jones at slot 137, and the board is aghast. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick156 Rnd5 Kitan Oladapo
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Kitan Oladapo. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick172 Rnd5 Frank Gore Jr.
Frank Gore Jr. at pick 172 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the running back. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick178 Rnd6 Jaylan Ford
A clean, defensible pick in the 178th overall pick with a little surplus value in Jaylan Ford. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick248 Rnd7 Hayden Hatten
A wild overpay on Hayden Hatten in pick No. 248, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
