The NFL draft has concluded and most teams feel they have done enough to push themselves closer to being labeled as a contender. Some fans and media personalities find post-draft grades in poor taste but too bad, because I am here to give out the Eagles 2022 draft grades.We entered the NFL Draft knowing the Eagles had a need on the interior defensive line, especially given that long-time Eagle Fletcher Cox is on an expiring contract.
Davis is one of the most physically imposing individuals in the class. His massive frame paired with 34-inch arms makes him a difficult task for opposing offensive lineman. In Philly’s 4-3 defensive scheme, Davis will align as the 1-technique, lining up across from either shoulder of the center. He is an immovable object against running attacks, and him and Cox will create an impenetrable wall for opposing running backs to run into with little to no success.
Dean is a three-down caliber linebacker with his ability to play the run downhill and drop back into coverage. He can make the calls defensively and ensure his teammates are aligned properly. Due to his lack of size, Dean will more than likely align as a will-backer, which allows him to play outside in space and make plays on the football.Kyron Johnson is an undersized, yet athletic defender. Johnson has played inside linebacker prior to 2021, where he played on the edge.
And on top of all that, I must factor in the trade for star wide receiver A.J. Brown from the Tennessee Titans when grading this team’s draft, which puts it over the edge.
