2011 Draft Grades

Whenever a team misses on picks within the first three rounds, the failures have long-lasting effects on the franchise. Perennial contenders restock their rosters through the draft to keep young, athletic players in the rotation. The Eagles completely whiffed on most of their 2011 draft picks, which has contributed to their inconsistent play over the past three seasons. While Alex Henery and Jason Kelce have emerged as legitimate starters, the misevaluations of Danny Watkins, Jaiquawn Jarrett, Curtis Marsh and Casey Matthews continue to haunt the Eagles despite the brilliance of Chip Kelly.

Best pick: Alex Henery, K (Round 4, 120th overall)
It's rare that a kicker is viewed as a team's top pick in the draft, but Henery has been a solid find for the Eagles. He capably replaced David Akers as the field-goal specialist and has been money on kicks within the 20- to 49-yard range (88.8 percent). That's great production from a fourth-round pick.

Worst pick: Danny Watkins, G (Round 1, 23rd overall)
Watkins was overwhelmed by the size, strength and athleticism of NFL defenders. He experienced epic struggles at the point of attack, and never gave the team the kind of production expected from a first-round pick.

Value pick: Jason Kelce, C (Round 6, 191st overall)
Whenever a team finds a competent starter in the later rounds, it's an added bonus. Thus, the Eagles should be excited that Kelce seemingly erased an early-round mistake by emerging as a solid blocker along the line.

Grade: D-

This was obviously graded on a curve because a D- is pretty farging generous.

The idea that Henery was a better pick than Kelce is baffling and completely incorrect.  Kelce is a very serviceable starter.  Henery is a relatively zesty kicker.

henery is a stats kicker....he hits his fgs from 20-40 to look good but sucks outside of 45 is a walking disaster in a big kick spot or in significant wind

still all they did was bring in this murderleg to challenge him and he stinks

[Sgt PSN]

I don't agree with them saying that Henery was the best player either. Kelce is on the field every play and Henery might get on the field for a total of 12 plays. And it's not like he's Adam Vinatieri or anything.

But still, the real point is that when a 4th round kicker is even in the discussion for best draft pick, it was an absolute failure of a draft.
