Posted November 14, 20231 yr I was watching Cowboys beating up on the Giants…and for God knows what time…my subconscious is driving me crazy! "He could have been an Eagle”. "He could have been an Eagle”.“He could have been an Eagle”. Eagles / Howie and the Epic failures in drafting WR’s is driving anyone with the knowledge of History to ask questions. Most fans forgave Howie because he got lucky in the last year draft..But in my humble opinion, I do not see excellence. I see mediocrity.
November 14, 20231 yr He went 4 picks before we were on the clock. We'd have had to trade up to 16 and given our low picks in the third and fourth we probably have to trade our 1st and 2nd for Atlanta's 1st and 3rd, which means no Hurts. Howie could've picked pretty much any other receiver in the first 3 rounds of that draft than the one he did in the first and got a better return, but we were never getting Lamb.

Howie only redeeming quality is that he is great at trading. I was really hoping that he could find a way, once Lamb slid into the teens. If we did get Lamb, there would be no need to spend 10th overall pick on Smith the following year. Sorry if my mental perturbations offend anyone here. I will chill.

November 15, 20231 yr Justin Jefferson was the big miss, not Lamb. Don't be fooled into thinking that we were in a position to easily draft Lamb, we were not. It would have cost the team.

It would have cost the team. Whatever it would've cost would have been worth it. A 3rd and a 4th or a 3rd and a 5th would've been worth it.

I mean, drafting Lamb gets us more wins, so the team is farther away from the position needed to get Micah. It's so easy to see this plan now.
