They didn't specify what the injury was. They said if he kept playing he could become paralyzed,so it was a major injury,which is upsetting and big chance for a round 1 player. The Eagles med team will be busy on this kid

March 30, 20242 yr Author I like Latu's ball awareness as well. He's tall and when he drops into coverage he can block throwing lanes with ease(barring a deep rainbow pass)
March 30, 20242 yr Wouldn't mind one bit hearing we took the money saved on Reddick and signed Simmons

Right now our DL is Carter/Davis/Milton I know some are high on Tui and Ojomo but would be nice to see another vet added to that group but I’d image we don’t do anything really until after the draft

You said $13 mil was cheap for him.... well, would you rather have Barkley or Jeudy for the same money? If you have money, get an elite player that impacts the game at a position that costs less...than pay the same money for a mediocre player who really doesn't change the game much at a more expensive position. I would never pay $13 mil for a WR..either get the $20 mil guy or save your money. Same with a $15 mil QB... it's an expensive version of a guy you want to replace. Bad business https://www.dawgsbynature.com/2024/3/29/24115225/breakdown-of-wr-jerry-jeudys-contract-extension-with-the-browns
March 31, 20242 yr On 3/29/2024 at 11:37 PM, joemas6 said: Right...because it takes the decisions away from the QB. We have run blocking especially Oline. Gives the Oline that chance to attack…instead of going backwards. It’s a MENTALITY!

Nobody wanted to give up this year’s draft picks. Reddick is clearly elite. 2026? Should have been a first rounder at that point. No comditions…straight up. Exactly what I was thinking when Rosie was creating this whole trade situation.

I just think they handled the situation badly all around and we were left with little choice. It was a third round pick in 2026 or moving up on day two, as the choices.

I agree....with our QB the run is most beneficial. Agree 100%. The mentality of not allowing it to be a 100% pass situation... this way the use of our QBs best weapon...the threat of him running with the ball...is still on the table. Better that the defense try to figure out the run gaps than our QB have to figure out blitzes and coverages. The mental game isn't his strength...his legs are.

Hurts has already very clearly proven he’ll beat you with his legs…or his arm. Ran for multiple TDs one week to turn around and throw for multiple the next week.

It's what I've been trying to explain to you for years now. The player gets more cash in the pocket and the cap hits get lowered.... this is the opposite of what Dallas has done by " waiting" time and time again.

Rosie becomes more forced to trade double digit sack players for third round picks.

March 31, 20242 yr 9 minutes ago, joemas6 said: Agree... Hurts can best you with his legs. The passing comes when teams are worried about his running. Teams always have to worry about his running. That comes with the territory in either run or pass. He was killing it with AJ. Then DCs adapted. Our O never did. They’re going to blitz…because we don’t utilize short and medium passing game. Just deep routes and screens.

March 31, 20242 yr If I told you we added an elite pass rusher that always gets double digit sacks…for a third round pick… three years from now? We’d all talk about how Rosie fleeeced them.
