Ongoing Eagles New Discussion volume 2

Ok…so I reported the rough beggining for Ty. He had a strong practice. So there you go. He beat a few guys. That’s good. But….not sure he was beating much quality. Valkahali ,the international exemption Oline, I’m not sure has ever shown a sign he can actually even play football yet. So a win versus him isn’t noteworthy…other than hopefully building confidence.

Uche just seems like he’ll work and have a role for us. Ojulari not nearly as sure.

QB Dorian seems to have stepped up his game trying to fight for a spot in the NFL. McCord hasn’t looked good. Rosie really targeted McCord. Decision could be surrounding keep the best option earning a roster spot right now? Or keep the guy looks out of his depths based solely on future growth and potential.

Eagles starting left guard Landon Dickerson suffered an injury that appeared to be to his right leg at the open practice at the Linc on Sunday evening.

The three-time Pro Bowler went down late in the the 2-plus-hour practice and was clearly in pain as his teammates took knees around him. Dickerson needed assistance to get to the sideline.

He was then taken by cart from the sideline to the locker room.

Just doesn’t feel like Siri’s injury luck is going to last this season. Dickerson just doesn’t look good…hope I’m wrong.

Of course I would not be upset ,but which players are you sheet canning for them who's contract expires after this year?? If I'm spending all of those 5 picks the first 2 days they will all start for me

Let’s call it four picks. Let’s say the RT starts off for a season at RG while Lane is here.

lol how are we still talking about booker the dude was expendable we wouldn’t have traded him if we felt like he was a huge part of the DL rotation. Very clear we seen other guys as more valuable

Or you could look at it as Booker was clearly the DT that Pete Carroll valued enough to make the trade happen so we could try and fix an identified weak spot at outside CB. Carroll has to be given top respect for how he views D. So the guy he chose to prioritize getting most likely the best of the bunch…right now today anyway…though Booker is really full of nothing but potential having barely played so far. Ty…we drafted and weren’t trading. As high of potential as any of the non starters.

So I’m viewing things practically completely opposite from your take on this one. The others didn’t have trade value.

Now…will clearly note how Fangio pointed out Gabe Hall was the model of how to work the PS. Seems like Fangio straight out told us he’s making the team and going to be the guy he’ll turn to…you know as well as whatever development he can get from Ty along the way.

So, it's all but certain, we will throw whatever it takes to pry Ty Warren away from the Colts by next season, if not immediately.

How's this sound: Tanner McKee, 2 day #2 and 3 day #3 picks and a swap of #1 picks for Ty Warren and Riley Leonard.

If they are ready to deal now, we could include a TE or two.

I gotta think on this idea. Trade them their starting QB and several high picks for Warren…hmmm…I do really like Warren….but feels like giving up way too much here. We’re discussing possibly even trading McKee for two second round picks…after that very strong PS game and the offseason where we ditched Pickett clearly showing how impressed we are with McKee.

4 second round picks and 3 third round picks. Think I’d rather take my chances swinging with 7 day two draft picks.

That's big lift there LOL

Have to agree…too rich for my blood. Think very highly of Warren though.

LOL Ham gets upset when A) They trade a guy he likes or B) we don't open the checkbook for guys he wants(almost everyone). He is still mad we got rid of Reddick and he won't let that die either LOL. So when Booker succeeds we won't hear the end of that

Actually wasn’t really ever mad we got rid of Reddick. Was a tough move to ditch that high a caliber pass rusher in a season going for a Lombardi. But totally makes sense to choose not too extend him at his age and price point he was looking for. My problem was more about ditching him for Bryce Huff as the whole plan all along. Never believed Huff was worth that money for us. Just was so glaringly a player propped up by his quality teammates and coach hitting his peak in his contract year. His peak never being an every down player even. His peak never featuring a nice polished options of varying pass rusher moves.

What, too generous?

Made me consider and think some….but I believe so

Which teams?

Easy to list a few…but no way to know them all yet…or the most desperate. Is it possible a starting QB gets injured for any team? Or could phrase it the opposite…is it possible no starting QBs get injured?

2 hours ago, GreenbleedinNC said:

Yep.I see zero reason to trade him now. After his lights out performance, he's worth more than that now IMO. Trade T-R. If McCord shows out this week he will probably be cut anyhow. Disappointing first shot for McCord, but he is a rook after all. He needs a bounce back performance. One or the other will be going away

Whose T-R? Dorian Thompson Robinson I assume. What value trade does he have? Nothing even worth mentioning in my opinion…maybe a seventh rounder…like I said..not worth mentioning.

Why couldn't you get that after the season?

Maybe we could get that after franchise tagging him three seasons. Huge mountain of what ifs between here and there. His trade value is high right now. Most anything he does after these next two PS games to increase his value higher….then I definitely don’t want to trade him.

Let’s also remember how I’ve been telling you McKee was the clear best number two option before last season. While you argued Rosie could do no wrong and trading for Pickett locking in over McKee as the backup was the right move.

So from the end of last season to right now…you’ve done a complete 180 flip as far as you possibly could. You didn’t think he was the number two…all the way to he’s a lock anytime on the future at such a high trade value.

Which is always fine to change and correct your error in thinking….one PS game changed your mind from he’s a third stringer to now a lock at two second round picks his entire future…one PS game sure effected you as much as it possibly could.

I’ve been telling you he’s good this whole time…but even being that guy I’m now telling you his trade value is high right now. Just a zillion possible things that could happen to lower his trade value between here and there.

Your argument was actually exactly the case I’m making towards the opposite point of view. His lights out performance just launched his trade value right now. That is…if you believe trading a player at his peak value is good. He’s been valuable to us. But now…he’s worth so much more to practically the entire league that wasn’t aware of what we’ve known already. Felt like most probably hardly knew who McKee even was…he just had his coming out party.

"Further specifics on Dickerson’s injury are not yet known. He was not listed on the team’s injury report on Sunday, though he was limited the day before due to a knee injury." So if he was limited a day earlier why did he participate Sunday? If his knee gave out, of course he could easily twist his leg, so I can't really understand why he was even out there. Of course I am second guessing, but seems to me if the starters are not 100% you need to make sure they are first? IDK after this long you'd think they would have some info about it?(this was 2 minutes ago per yahoo Sports). Maybe Joe or another local hear more of an update we aren't getting?

I doubt we hear a peep until positive confirmation of test results are concluded. Even then….Rosie would like to make any trade calls first before official broadcasting of the results if terrible.

Feeling like Cooper at WR is in

But FL on DTR…if he does keep improving and showing he can play and has some value? Believe that actually just makes more of a case to be able to trade McKee. QB factory remember. McKee drafted, developed and traded. DTR more similar to Hurts style proved can be the backup…then enables us to keep and develop McCord much easier. The QB factory keeps churning them out. It’s almost exactly what Lurie has described as being his plan being a QB factory.

Will be disappointed if he is not WRs 4-6

Need a first and a mid round pick to make it feel right.

Maybe even more after the Dickerson injury

i don't coach... don't watch preseason... I don't pick the roster. Last year Pickett was #2... McKee was #3. Last year we won the Superbowl This year McKee is #2. I would prefer not to trade the #2... especially at the dirt cheap price and team control for 2 years. I'm thinking of both not having a #2 now.... and also having to spend $$ for a #2.

I don't seen McKee's trade value declining. Either teams will see him as a potential starter and pay for him, or they won't... I don't see it changing if he stays with the Eagles this season. I'm not rushing to trade him this season. Makes zero sense to me. NONE.

That's Eagles conversation without talking about myself.... try it some time. Nobody cares about you stating McKee was the best option for #2 last year. The Eagles won the SB and ended up doing really well at QB ... all 3 spots all season. It couldn't have worked out any better at all. If you look at what they gave up and received in return for Pickett... and the $$ of all the contracts. The Eagles were able to spend absolute minimum at backup QB and have received quality play. Simple look at the results last year... the only downside from Pickett aside from Smith dropping the TD pass in their loss vs Washington, was the last pass in the SB that could have helped me win the block pool if they got the first down to finish the game. McKee was able to help the team running the scout team. These things absolutely are part of why teams win.

And we still wouldn’t have traded Booker if he was such a huge piece of the rotation… We are a team that values the DL and the depth/rotation.

If we were willing to trade Booker means he was expendable. Why was Booker deemed expendable the guys behind him be it Ty, Gabe, Young combo of the three….

Don’t see McKee getting traded this season unless some team vastly over pays like 1st or 2nd round pick. Next year on when McKee is on his final year then maybe since then you have McCord in year two and possibly still have DTR with another year under his belt in the system
