Brought Kool-Aid in for a visit - don't want him.

A lot of what I don't like - quick outs to Goedert, short stuff on 3rd and 7 - is going to go away with Kellen Moore. Read where he doesn't care what level of football plays come from as long as they work. Also styless - just plays with a huge playbook. Going to be rough on the new C. Should be an increase in mid and long ball. Sounds good but as long as I've been around, the further down the field, the lower the success. Would like another heavy RB, expect to see more motion and outside zone. Going to be quite a change from the vanilla we've been seeing.

That was clearly overblown. He ran very well for crucial conversions in that game. Had no problems planting to throw or anything. But Mahomes is a tough competitor for sure.

I think these guys are such elite athletes... Mahomes ,Hurts etc.. they can still move when hurt a little.   

I remember as a teenager seeing Randall live.... casually rolling to his right, dude ate up space so fast.  Charlie Garner looked like he was shot out of a cannon!

The heavy RBs are a rare breed today.

Smith's cap hits combined....2024-2028 ... 5 years...are combined total of just over $61 mil. 

Can't wait to see Lamb's

Wow! I really miss watching Charlie Garner

Read where Kellen sometimes puts an OL in for where a FB would be - I'm liking this guy!

Why do we need another heavy RB? Bark should like it here, he can play 2 downs instead of 3 sometimes. Gains is fine as a COP back. I also expect some wrinkles using a WR in the backfield(like Hill used to do in KC)

Eagles have spent the most money in the NFL this offseason. Cowboys have spent the least. Eagles have all their key players locked up contractually. We don't. Eagles have added so many good players. We've added Eric Kendricks, for 3 mil. Philly=contender. We=miss playoffs.

Here it is. After weeks on the phones with GMs and HC’s, my first 2024 Mock Draft. https://nfl.com/news/peter-schrager-2024-nfl-mock-draft-1-0-giants-leap-up-for-j-j-mccarthy-vikings-stick-and-pick-cb-qb… - Giants trade up for JJ McCarthy - QBs go 1-4 - Colts trade up for Malik Nabers - Eagles take Cooper DeJean - Broncos go… Defense.

https://hawkeyeswire.usatoday.com/lists/iowa-hawkeyes-football-cooper-dejean-nfl-social-media-pro-day-draft/  I hope Howie can do it. 123 called him early on. I just don't know if Howie has it in him to pull this trigger.  I hope he does. Super versatile,young,strong and we need this infusion in a bad way. I will cross my fingers. As I said I didn't consider him because of Howie's traditions,but I hope he breaks those now. Would really bolster our defense immediately

I will try a mock with DeJean at 22 just to see how that could play out

Really like this prospect-Chris Jenkins-DT- Michigan,but seems we need previous DT's to step up now

Do you expect Cam to take over the Oline+blocking calls? Was Kelce job he was teaching him.

Erick Kendrick’s was a steal move to teach them the new D. They were the better team last year. Is what it is. We need them to come backwards. Draft ahead still. Then after the draft(possibly even during) you have teams dumping vets(sometimes just money contractually).

With DeJean I am stuck on pick 120 lol. The round 5's are flush with possibilities. The round 4 should be a guy with upside who can start in time,but not someone we need right away(although that would be nice) LB? TE? WR? I have DeJean at 22(if Howie will do it) Chris Braswell- the edge from Bama and Cooper Beebe at 53. Although one could argue for an OT instead,a reminder that Beebe weighs the same as most of those and he has played almost every OL position. I keep going back to Trevin Wallace-LB at 120,but IDK if we need yet another "MEH" LB. I'm wanting a TE at 120 yet I find it's either a reach or someone who won;t last that long(like Stover from OSU). If we like him,I can see making a move up from 120 to the mid 90's

Just saying the process is far from over

Yeah I suspect we see some guys being traded which happens every draft. IDK if we make a move during or after. I guess it depends who shakes loose

That’s the guy I Mock drafted. Seems like a high floor prospect to say the least. Just not a bad pick. Personally I see him being part of that next generation of interior multi role disruptor.

Like the kid alot. Just wondering if the guys we previously drafted are ready to step up. If someone can be replaced,this kid is really good

Really just couldn’t be against that pick myself at all

I’m on the side of both.

I'm torn at 50 between Jenkins and Chris Braswell(edge). I really like Beebe. I hope we get him. he would solidify that RG spot

Tuipolotu has been being developed and growing in our premium pro training atmosphere. He’s ready to really contribute in the rotation.My boy Ojomo is hungry. He can do his part as a backup rotational mean pit bull inside.
