How do you guys feel about Mims? Just 8 starts he could slide and be a steal

Fautanu is known for a nonstop motor and he loves looking to finish people with his blocks. He’d be a fairly ideal Oline target I’d think.

So raw. But he’s a mountain of a man that’s very athletic. As large an upside as there gets.

Now one can ask "how badly do we want him)or anyone for that matter) I think after Bowers goes off the board we will see the action pick up for linemen and WR's. I assume by pick 10(Bowers) 5 QB's and 2 WR's and maybe Alt and another OT will be gone. At 11 who knows,so 12 would be as high up as I would go. if I can make a deal at 12,I would just stand at 22

Believe this statement is one of many OPINIONS and carries no more weight than any other

Like I stated I believe this statement you quoted sort of supported both our viewpoints.

Nobody is saying crap before the draft. I just heard yesterday about both LSU WR will likely need shoulder procedures after their rookie season. After the draft then teams might come out with the negatives on their diagnosis of Latu. NFL teams aren’t going to scare off their enemies making bad draft choices. After they do it? Then we might hear about it. How it always works. As fans that’s the biggest info we aren’t clued in on: the medical reports. Is what it is. Happens every year. I’m sure we’ll find out plenty of info here after the draft we didn’t realize. No way for us to know otherwise until though.

So you don't trust our med staff. NICE!!

Darnold would probably be not terrible in Minnesota. But you can tell by all the talk they are looking hard to get a top draftee. JJ seems very likely. I’m marking it in the book…in pencil.

As the Vikings should wouldn’t bank on Darnold being the answer either just stating that Minnesota is the best team he has ever been around to possibly start for(he was the backup in SF last year they are obviously better but Purdy job was all but locked in place). 
 

If Darnold were to ever turn around his career Minnesota is his best chance

IDK if he ever will. He gets bounced because all then teams see the same thing, he can't take the next step for whatever reason

I would be fine with Fatanu,but I won't move for him and it would surprise me if he fell to 22

Lane stating to play three more years. That’s too long to grab his pure successor this draft. A G that possibly could move to T is clearly an option. But drafted Steen last draft on Day Two that could be the swing backup G/T. He looks like he can handle both jobs to me…at a backup level at least.

Of hence why said 2-3 more years but 3 years pass Lane still feeling good, we are in position to win another ring etc lot of factors could decide on him playing more. 
Steen see as a non factor even if Lane only plays 3 more years Steen would be a FA when Lane retires could bring him back cheap but at that point we would likely just look to draft a replacement.

From Kempski;

I agree that Seattle is the sweet spot for a trade up. If the Eagles were to get to that spot, at least one of JC Latham, Amarius Mims, Terrion Arnold, or Quinyon Mitchell should be available. In my opinion, those are the four players the Eagles are most likely to make a modest move up for. But also: 

• Howie is boys with Seattle GM John Schneider, and they've done their fair share of deals.

• The Seahawks don't have a second-round pick, and the trade chart works out nicely for the following kind of swap:

 Eagles get Seahawks get 
 Pick 16 (1000 points) Pick 22 (780 points) 
Pick 81 (185 points)   Pick 50 (400 points)
1185 points  1180 points 

This has been a very rumored trade spot. I like that trade idea swap. But if Quinyon Mitchell is available there I’ll run the neighborhood streaking all night in joy!

12 is shaky as it is

I like  Latu,it's a Howie pick. If it was me I would shoot for Arnold,but for Howie that is outside his comfort zone and seeing as we had round 2 G's in and knowing DB is outside howies Zone,it led me to Latu. We DID have him(Arnold) and DeJean in for visits,so the question is ":will Howie go outside his comfort zone?" If you can answer that you can narrow things down quite a bit. My answer was no,which once again led me back to Latu

If only last years tragic pass coverage could convince Rosie to jump up for Arnold or Mitchell. You almost have to address DB after fielding the 31st ranked pass D, right?

Yea he played for the Jets and the panthers terrible teams lol 

Jets in 2020 his best WR was Crowder 

Panthers had a good weapon in Moore but one of if not the worst OL In football 

Not saying Darnold will turn it around but I mean look at Geno finally landed in a good spot and has had a decent run in Seattle.

Minnesota has a decent OL Aaron Jones at RB and Jefferson/Addison easily the best WRs he has ever had.

If Bears take Caleb as planned they better get a top flight LT at 9 in there or Caleb is done

I would love Arnold. Dejean is the best IMMEDIATE fit,but I like Arnolds ceiling better. I am leary about Mitchell. maybe he's ok,but he's really never had to square off vs real competition,so for me he is "untested"

Yeah, if we move up Fautanu wouldn't be my choice. Did some reading, once I read he lacks the power to drive guys back it's a pass for me. Sure he'll get somewhat stronger - so will the competition. He may wind up as a C

I don’t know what you’d consider a slide for Mims? At 22 in a stellar Oline draft class…would be a slide for a guy with 8 games of college experience. Could you have a more ideal situation to come into for a kid like that than becoming an Eagles under Stout?

Totally agree on Arnold

Latu is just a safe pick for Howie in my view. He's a 'can't miss"(barring re-injury of course)

I think the Vikes will wait around and see who shakes loose. I mean would you offer the Vikes Pickett during the draft?(not that we would just sayin)
