Halfway through the second round.  1 OL.

They’re waiting for pick 78

Bill Belicheck had DeJean as the 23rd best player in the draft, BTW.

That is nuts.

It will be nice to see Barkley run through Sainristils tackle attempts for the next few years.

Commanders great draft, hate to say it.

I would call it a perfect trade.   I was looking at this exact scenario.

At the beginning of the day,  the Eagles had 2 day 2 picks.   After the trade,  2 day 2 picks.

That's how I saw it going.   I don't think Cooper DeJean would have fallen to 50,  and if I was sitting in that draft room I would not have wanted to bite my fingernails for 10 picks.

I see, now,  3rd round pick,  OL.  Right guard.  Christian Haynes or Zak Zinter.  Both played Right Guard.  Both All Americans.  But one should be available in the 3rd.   Or one of those RTs who should be able to play RG,  that people are talking about.  I like Lane and don't want to push him out the door. 

The Eagles are on top of it,  doing a great job.  I really like the player,  really like the trade,  and the Eagles don't lose a pick. 

And the proof is in what followed.  CB, CB, CB. He would have gone right there, perhaps not 40 but right after, if not.

Eagles have the John Lynch hard hitting white guy flying around.

This may also mean the Eagles like Tyler Steen 🙂

Just need to remind the HC who he is…

Where did he have Mitchell?

The draft just shut off on me & NFL+ just said I don’t have an active subscription when they just took the $15 out like 2 weeks ago lol most janky app ever

Good lord this is nuts, two of best CB's in the draft fall to us...I don't think any of us saw this coming. 

Don't know if both of these kids will turn out to be players, but I'm definitely like our chances next season more than I did 24 hours ago...

The ABC show is the best imo.

13. 3rd best defender after Turner and Latu. 

FYI we also selected the 1st rated as well...

More speed added on defense. It got really fast this year. Worth noting that very low 4.4 time was after only being cleared to work out for 2 weeks. Hes faster than that for sure.

His drafting hasn’t exactly been on point the past 5-6 years

Man a run on DBs just happened. No way in hell would DeJean have made it to #50.

Awesome trade Howie.

Correct. Green Bay was all set to claim him, with the next pick I believe.

So Coop and GJ at safety with Blank off the bench?

Mitch and Slay with Rodgers and Ringo off the bench? 

Fire Bradberry into the sun?

 

Amazing.

I think vic may move coop all over the field.

Could be a real weapon.

Washington is having a good draft, but are building the defense over the offense. They are getting good players, but good luck Daniels!

This is the same thing the Bears did with Justin Fields...

Its a good thing, because that pick could have/should have gotten him fired.

 

 

 

Yes, Hyperbole.   I am still in mourning over that debacle!

In my opinion, I am okay missing out on Jefferson if it makes Howie draft like this for the rest of his career. It's been so nice for a lot of our picks to make sense and not be headscratchers anymore.

"The Eagles pass defense allowed 1,824 yards to slot receivers last season, 162 more yards than any other team."
