Absolutely," That means it could happen... its nice to see 30 years where 10 trades.... and the first 3 involve swapping this year's #1 for next years (not a 2nd round pick) with the last 2 of the trades actually taking TWO years to get the return ... so you showed 5 trades in the middle there .... 30 years .... out of those 5, two of those trades also involved another pick.So, you are the research man ... if you take the 3 occurrences above....2009 swapping pick 371996 swapping pick 411995 swapping pick 51It would be curious to see the teams involved at the time and the rosters / picks that each team had. Or if there were any players involved in addition to those picks.But good quality research showing 3 occasions where this happened in the last 30 years, absolutely verifies my " Could it happen, absolutely" comment. Nice to see when other posters are able to find proof to back up my points.That is all I’ve been saying all along it could happen. Nothing more nothing less. You interjected 100% and now you appear to be backing off from that so bottom line we’re in agreement it could happen. The second could be worth a first.

For one with low expectations. The team is set up the best it's ever been since the late 40s...to go on a run. Young team full of winners, yet still plenty of young players that will develop. No where near thinking short term when looking to maximize this situation and keeping the talent level up and deep. That sets a culture that lasts when the second string has to play at a level up and then the 3rd string has to level up. For someone who thinks we have such talent that we can get all these picks for guys that are going to get cut... the contrast in the mentality that we need picks in 2 years after having such a young team now, and all the picks in 2026, makes zero sense. Where are the spots? I'm thinking the focus can be more in developing what's on the roster now, so much potential... then we can have our 2018 and 2022 drafts again... 5 or 6 picks that hit. You can't keep picking 11 draft picks and consistently develop them as that number can't all make the 53. There are stages to the roster building, not all of them involve having 11 picks each season. " The process" isn't always where you think New Orleans is at the moment. And another point that you seem to skip... the talented roster loses players, also gets comp picks. Not necessary to trade away players.
July 15, 2025Jul 15 The 2020 season came due to fluke injuries... and QB in a bad mindset, and plenty of other reasons. Not a young roster that has years to keep winning. This team is built to keep winning... not sure how the " elite thinking bloggers" seem to miss this. Or why they want to give away players. The cap is in good shape... the roster still has young players that will step up. the 2026 draft is 2 seasons worth of picks in one. That's a lot of young players. Young players develop and young players come cheap. That's two long term... not short term positives.An arrogant " I was born in 1947 crap post" trying to spin that we need 11 picks in 2027 and 2028 because of being born in 1947 or what happened in 2020? Or prior to Lurie owning the team... none of that matters or factors into how Hurts, AJ and this young team will perform. For being a long term Eagles fan, you make s dumb statement when looking at 2017 to 2020 and complaining? You went through enough crap. A 4 year period where you win a SB, win a playoff game, win the division to make the playoffs and then have the crap year..... " You wouldn't sacrifice that? " Are you kidding. How arrogant is that thinking 3 out of 4 years in the plays, winning a playoff game in 2 of them and winning one title isn't good in comparison to the crap you witnessed back in your day?Your mindset is all over the place, yet making no sense anywhere here. What is your goal with McKee... you want to trade him or not? I still can't tell.... maybe you need more accounting terms from 1968 to help explain?
July 15, 2025Jul 15 Maybe you prefer to be the Steelers? They keep winning those 9 games.... no playoff win in a decade though... but hey, no 2020... lol
July 15, 2025Jul 15 6 hours ago, joemas6 said:House money is a loser term. For one with low expectations.It bears repeating "It’s not whether you win or lose, it’s how you played the game.” is the rule I was raised with. Wharton also taught me (and all its students) that a wise company balances two factors if it wants to continue to stay in business and thrive. The first is efficiently and effectively harvesting its mature products and services. The second is tending to the new product development pipeline so that when the sales of mature products and services eventually decline, as they always do, there are new products and services ready to replace those declining sales. Westinghouse and Xerox were textbook examples of companies that focused too much on harvesting and not enough on product development. They were household names that we never see anymore.You choose to harvest more than I do, and I choose to focus more on new product development than you do. It is simply different strokes for different folks. I respect your desire to run with the bulls. I just choose a different approach to maximizing my entertainment.

What is your goal with McKee... you want to trade him or not? I still can't tell.... maybe you need more accounting terms from 1968 to help explain?You keep making this about the specifics of the single player McKee. The thinking about Draft resource maximization is a conceptual one, not player specific. The McKee situation is simply a cog in a wheel … a moment in a time thread that stretches both backwards and forwards. It is kind of like life itself. Each of us is just the current incarnation of an energy stream that goes unbroken infinitely into the past and infinitely into the future. Each of us is just the current chapter in a "book” with many chapters stretching in both directions. We never die, but rather our energy stream just moves on to the next chapter unabated. As Einstein said E equals m c squared, and energy is conserved.” For me the Eagles and the Steelers are like that. They provide continual and continuous entertainment. The form of the entertainment varies, but it is always entertaining. As the intro of ABC’s Wide World of Sports said at the beginning of each show "Spanning the globe to bring you the constant variety of sports... the thrill of victory... and the agony of defeat...the human drama of athletic competition... This is "ABC's Wide World of Sports!"”
July 15, 2025Jul 15 If you are a team that feels it needs a starting QB... normally that team would invest it's first round pick to get him.If a team sees McKee as a starter... not just to get him to try out. Then they would invest that same pick. The year won't matter...it's a QB, you either have one or not.If they don't see McKee as the probable solution, then they won't invest a first round pick...in any year.So this silly idea or innuendo of 2026 second Round pick or a 2027 1st ....isn't really realistic.28 minutes ago, mattwill said:You keep making this about the specifics of the single player McKee.

With our "stars" locked on we can bank young guys who can take over when their time is over. Just fabulous planning for the future by this organization. At any rate these are kids to watch during the college games. Any of the top 100 would be worth checking outHow does one come to a "concensus" on who to name the 844th-rated college prospect?

The year won't matter...it's a QB, you either have one or not.If they don't see McKee as the probable solution, then they won't invest a first round pick...in any year.So this silly idea or innuendo of 2026 second Round pick or a 2027 1st ....isn't really realistic.You are conducting your assessment through the lens of 100% certainty. 100% certainty does not exist in the National Football League. There is always a certain amount of risk/uncertainty associated with all NFL decisions. So, a team can be convinced that a specific player is going to succeed as their starting quarterback, but there is a real possibility that things won’t go as expected. The player could be not as good as the team expected him to be. The player could get injured. There are all sorts of risk factors. In the case of McKee, one of the risk factors is the small number of NFL starts that he has. A team can, in concept, be relatively convinced that he’s going to succeed, but that small number of starts injects a higher level of risk than if he had 15 starts. Another factor that affects value is contract status.If risk/uncertainty is zero and the contract status is good, then the value is indeed a 1st Round pick in the current year. As the risk/uncertainty rises above zero the 1st Round pick value gets devalued. In the case of McKee the general opinion is that the current year 1st valuation is knocked down to a 2nd Round pick. For some teams, the devaluation is steep enough that they wouldn’t surrender anything more than a 3rd.
July 15, 2025Jul 15 Matt... you got beat up a lot as a kid? Just curious? That aside.... if I was another team I wouldn't offer higher than a 2026 3rd for McKee. If im the Eagles, im not taking anything other than a 2026 1st. So ... I don't see a trade. Really ready to move on... but similar to Ham....you go off on a tangent and don't answer.... what do you want to happen with McKee? E=MC2.... if tree falls in the forest with nobody there.... let's put that aside, you can discuss that with the elite bloggers.

I'm not F@@#ing up the team chemistry or the salary cap ... for 1 2nd round pick.... certainly not anything in 2027 or 2028We don't need to change anything, this is the first legit attempt to repeat as a champion.... since 1949... 2027 and 28 drafts can waitI’d say Rosie kind of screwed things up if he’s passing down any offers like that for McKee. Should have kept Pickett if that was the case.

Made so much more sense for them to have traded for McKee than drafted their QB high like they did. Biggest attraction with their QB drafted was supposedly more NFL transition ready than other draftees. But really might refer a bit towards he’s already closer to his ceiling.
