Draft Grade — Eagles
Overall D
ValueB NeedB+ TradesF FutureB-
The phones sank the Eagles this weekend: D.

The Clay Webb pick is the one that will follow the Eagles into the fall. They took him 31 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so.

They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through wide receiver.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Grant.

In short, the board sent warnings, and they will be hoping it was wrong.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Will Johnson
In pick 32 they get a potential shutdown corner at a price that makes it sweeter. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick64 Rnd2 Xavier Watts
They barely believed it either: Xavier Watts still on the board at the 64th pick. The roster fit checks out.
Pick96 Rnd3 Gunnar Helm
They did well to land Gunnar Helm in slot 96, just ahead of his grade. It fills a real need, too.
Pick117 Rnd4 Charles Grant
Charles Grant at the 117th overall pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick127 Rnd4 Cody Simon
Cody Simon in Round 4, Pick 25 is fair value, right on his grade. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick134 Rnd4 Rylie Mills
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Rylie Mills. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick161 Rnd5 Seth McLaughlin
They took Seth McLaughlin at par in Round 5, Pick 23, which is nothing to complain about. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick164 Rnd5 Clay Webb
Clay Webb at the Round 5 slot is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick165 Rnd5 Elijah Roberts
Elijah Roberts in pick 165 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick168 Rnd5 JJ Pegues
JJ Pegues at No. 168 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
