The only two major head scratchers to me are the Clayton and TO picks.  Other than that I can deal with everyone else.  In TO's defense he was a highly productive player against good competition, unlike Smith and Gocong.

this was one of the more confusing draft for me in a long time. they addressed the needs of the defense all the way around, but came up short (literally) in a lot of picks

-Im not high on Sapp as everyone else mainly because he is best suited for a 3-4. they might of took the value pick, but i think it was the wrong guy for their system

-Daniel Teo-Nesheim made me angrier than any pick the eagles have made in a long time. although he blew his combine numbers out of the water, there were way too many better picks at multiple positions to choose from at this number in the draft.

-Trevar Lindley has injury plague written all over it. this dates all the way back in high school and continued through his college career. this only gets worse at the nfl level

-Liked the brian graham pick,  and think he will surprise a lot of the shocked fans that thought somebody else should of been taken here

-Jamar Chaney might of been the best guy the eagles took that actually fits the bill of a "true" SAM LB. fastest 40 time of all the LB at the combine and is considered one of best tacklers of the group

-I would of liked them to get a better hitter that can come up in the box and lay some punishment, just dont know if Nate Allen is that guy that will strike any fear in anyone. hopefully his cover skills will outweigh that

C is the grade

Has Prisco ever given the Eagles a bad draft grade?

QuotePhiladelphia Eagles

Best pick: Trading up in the first round to get Brandon Graham. He will be a 13-sack player in two years. I love the kid.

Questionable move: Trading Donovan McNabb for a second-round pick. But that's nitpicking.

Third-day gem: Fifth-round pick Ricky Sapp was a potential first-round selection until he tore up a knee two years ago. He moved to outside linebacker, but he is more of a down end.

Analysis: You look up and down their draft board and it's full of really good players. They had a lot of picks and the Eagles really did a nice job with them. That shouldn't be surprising.

Grade: A+

I'm just happy they drafted that lacrosse team in the fourth round.
Is rjs gonna have to choke a bitch?

1 - DE Brandon Graham, Michigan-------Trading up for another speed guy, who can also play linebacker at 260 plus? I dunno. It'll be interesting to see what Earl Thomas does @ Seattle seeing how he was picked directly after.
2 - FS Nate Allen, USF----------------------A Big East football player? Wanted Mays here, but oh well. His issues might have scared Reid away.  
3 - DE New TO, Washington--------------I'm sick of hearing about busts that have a "high motor".
4 - CB Trevard Lindley, Kentucky---------Sound like he could be a good player, but has a lot of work to do after getting injured and one has to wonder if he can stay healthy in the NFL.
4 - LB Keenan Clayon, Oklahoma--------How many 6'-1" 225 lb. linebackers are NFL pro bowlers? Safety?
4 - QB Mike Kafka, Northwestern--------Kolb's replacement. Ha!
4 - TE Clay Harbor, Missouri State-------I like this pick. Guys a hell of an athlete and Eagles need another tight end to compliment Celek.
5 - DE Ricky Sapp, Clemson---------------I like this one. Great ACC player, won the Brian Piccalo award last year. He's a good edge rusher and can blow plays up. Makes big plays in the backfield. imo, he's better than New To.
5 - WR Riley Cooper, Florida--------------Like, I swear, I like most of the later picks than the first ones. All around athlete who was a two sport star, playing outfield. Led Fl. in yards 961 and td's 9. Don't want to say he made Tebow look good, but he didn't hurt. Could be a great slot guy replacing Curtis and can work well as a big target in the red zone.
6 - RB Charles Scott, LSU-----------------This guy was a plow, but I get scared of rb's with shoulder injuries.
7 - LB Jamar Chaney, Mississippi State-Fast and somewhat big, least it seems Reid is trying.
7 - DT Jeff Owens, Georgia----------------Another injured guy.
7 - S Kurt Coleman, Ohio State-----------Don't know him

C+
