Draft Grade — Eagles
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Eagles did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

You can hear the double-takes from here. The Eagles took Que Robinson at No. 162, roughly 84 spots before his name belonged. More right than wrong, and a B- to match.

They banked enough surplus on Majors to cover a lot of smaller sins. The cornerback hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

Job largely done: edge rusher 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 cornerback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Nic Scourton
In pick No. 32 they get a premier pass rusher. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick64 Rnd2 JT Tuimoloau
JT Tuimoloau in slot 64 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick96 Rnd3 Danny Stutsman
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Danny Stutsman at the 96th pick is the proof. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick129 Rnd4 Jake Majors
Jake Majors in No. 129 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick162 Rnd5 Que Robinson
Que Robinson in the Round 5 slot is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick166 Rnd5 Upton Stout
Upton Stout in Round 5, Pick 27 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick169 Rnd5 Woody Marks
They went early on Woody Marks in the 169th overall pick, and the value did not follow. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
