FutureB-
The phones sank the Eagles this weekend: D-. Call it belief, call it a gut call, but Jalen Travis at slot 229 is 58 spots clear of consensus, and that is the headline. Too much went sideways, and the D- is the honest tally.
They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. The running back hole is the one line item this class does not answer.
Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Watts. Cornerback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.
In short, the board sent warnings, and they will be hoping it was wrong.
Pick Analysis
Pick32
Rnd1
Kenneth Grant
In pick No. 32 they get a run-stuffing presence up front at a price that makes it sweeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick63
Rnd2
Mason Taylor
They paid up for Mason Taylor at the Round 2 slot when waiting would have done the job. The roster fit checks out.
Pick64
Rnd2
Xavier Watts
Circle this one: Xavier Watts at pick 64 is a fall that decides a draft. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick96
Rnd3
Zy Alexander
Zy Alexander at the 96th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick132
Rnd4
Cody Simon
Fair-plus on Cody Simon, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick134
Rnd4
Malachi Moore
Malachi Moore in the 134th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick137
Rnd4
Tyler Shough
Tyler Shough at the 137th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick156
Rnd5
Willie Lampkin
A real head-scratcher, Willie Lampkin in the 156th pick is miles ahead of his ranking. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick161
Rnd5
Que Robinson
Que Robinson in pick No. 161 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick164
Rnd5
Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson
Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson at the Round 5 slot is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick165
Rnd5
Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Dont'e Thornton Jr. at Round 5, Pick 27 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick168
Rnd5
Jalen McLeod
Jalen McLeod at No. 168 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick172
Rnd5
Howard Cross III
They reached into another round for Howard Cross III, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick206
Rnd6
Carson Vinson
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Carson Vinson well ahead of where he belonged. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick229
Rnd7
Jalen Travis
They left a pile of value on the table to take Jalen Travis this early at No. 229. It fills a real need, too.
