The 2023 NFL Draft is less than a month away, and the Eagles, like 31 other teams across the league, are starting to assess potential blockbuster trades that can maximize the value of a deep pool of prospects.
The details of any trade can be found in the value of the moves, using the NFL’s trade value chart.
What is the ‘trade value chart?
Back when he was the head coach of the Dallas Cowboys and building a dynasty, Jimmy Johnson developed a value chart that assigns every pick in the draft with a specific point value, making it easier for him and front-office types to compare the relative value of draft picks in different rounds.
A system formulated by personnel guru Gil Brandt and the former Cowboys head coach in the 1990s, the chart helps measure the value of draft assets and helps negotiate trades.
Named the “Dallas Draft Picks Value Chart,” executives from around the league swear by Johnson’s grading system for picks and refer to it before making a final decision on trade proposals or offers.
Using the trade value chart from DraftTek, Philadelphia has the 6th best draft capital among NFC teams, and they have the best draft capital in the NFC East despite having the least amount of picks.
Here’s where all 16 NFC teams stand with the draft fast approaching.
