Hello, everybody.

Welcome back to Inside the Data on Inside the Birds.

I'm Jeff Mosher.

I got Sam Finkel with me.

And if you've been listening to this show long enough,

you know Sam is our expert on all things, analytics and data.

And that's why we call the show inside the data, because Sam brings us inside all the great

numbers and explains to them what they really mean. And that's for all of our new listeners who

may not be familiar with the show. But excited, a lot of people are excited, Sam, about the Eagles draft for a couple of reasons.

and we'll get to that, which is interesting because of where they picked them. But what did you

what did you think overall of this draft class? Just give me your overall feel and then the athletic

element of it. Yeah, I like this class. I think they did a pretty good job in addressing some of the needs.

And honestly, I thought they did a good job, not just prioritizing need, but also getting the best

talent within that need structure. I thought it was a good balanced approach. I agree. You know,

there have been times in the past when Adam and I have been doing draft coverage.

And, you know, just to give an example, 2020. Now, Jalen Hertz worked out really well. That was a surprise.
