Establishing actual “value” on NFL draft prospects is incredibly difficult, with all 32 NFL teams having different schemes, cultures, and ideas of what elite talent looks like.

A player who can do some thinking, he'd be a potential third or fourth round pick. Payton fell into the Eagles' lap, highlighting the value Philadelphia had to secure.
Philadelphia felt strongly about Morris' unique intangibles and landed the former Georgia offensive guard some 14 picks before his expected draft rank.
A talented safety who could replicate Reed Blankenship's rise, Wisniewski fell into the Eagles' lap late in round seven.
A 300+ pound defensive player who can run faster than running backs, the International Pathway Program pick was scooped up by Philadelphia in the seventh round when most prognosticators didn't have him on draft boards.
The talented edge rusher was projected as an undrafted free agent; instead, he'll join the Eagles as a seventh-round pick.
