March 9Mar 9 Would be nice if we got picks for this draft out of AJ. But would seem obvious after June 1 trade would be our route. So looking toward the future.
March 9Mar 9 Eagles got a pretty good set of comp picks awarded to them today for this draft.https://www.nfl.com/news/2026-nfl-draft-nfl-awards-33-compensatory-picks-to-15-teams

Not lacking picks. Would think it would bolster trade up scenario thinking.

Please spin it for the usual comedy you give us!

They were talking...some asset this year and then officially AJ gets moved for the 1st round next year.The issue is that it's stupid for the other team... so then it would need to be picks next year....then just officially do it post June. So I wouldn’t do any " mock" drafts with any big assets getting acquired this year.The issue is that next year's picks aren't the same value as this year... so let's say Howie wants next year's 1st and 2nd from a team...that team giving up it's first 2 picks in a draft is tough.Might be we get a 1st, 3rd and pick swap next year. If you are the Patriots and he is your choice... with how these other guys are getting paid...it's a huge bargain for AJ... they may give up the picks. I also think Howie is assuming that the Pats won't have as good of a season coming up and rather than pick 31, they want the better pick. Also gives 2 drafts in a row with extra picks early in the draft.

Only differences are 179 to 178 and 201 to 215. If they want to end racism they need to stop the r*acist "bonus" for hiring a "coach of color". Very demeaning pandering. Just pathetic they put "end racism" in end zones, then make r*acist rule changes like this one

It's comical how the team make up changes annually and you bish about it annually like we're the only team it happens to . You're going to die when your boy goes away. No more fogged back seat windows to share with him 🤣

Maybe a few minor depth fills after the draft although I did build in an extra pick if AJ is traded which doesn't affect my mock, which is usually wrong anyhow 🤪. IDK losing Phillips saved some, so maybe an edge and also draft another,but money is tight this year. Howie could still move back a bit in round 1 for added picks or so we can move up in round 2 or 3. Last year for Fangio so I hope we get a few D guys coached up before he goes. Anyway, since we saved the loot from Phillips and Blank, I would think we get an edge or S in???
March 10Mar 10 Author Some tidbit I didn't know before. The Eagles actually had to get a waiver from the NFL to display the head logo facing left(so the "E" showed). The NFL has some ridiculous rules. The team owner should be able to decide logo facing direction. If they want it upside down SO??? That's like telling Coca Cola they can't have red boxes. If the Lions flipped the Lion 180 would anyone really care???? Crazy

AJ Brown is the best complete WR the Eagles have ever had? Yes, better than TO; Mike Quick; Irving Fryar; way better than one trick pony Desean Jackson; and even better than Jeremy Maclin, whom I think was the most underrated WR the Eagles have ever had. Harold Carmichael was phenomenal! But the game is soooo different now. I do think he would have excelled really well in the league now though.Better than Alshon Jeffrey. Better than Donte Stallworth. Better than Fred Barnett and Calvin Williams. Jordan Mathews. Kevin Curtis. Tommy McDonald I can’t speak for. He was before my time.So again, why in the heck would you trade him? He’s not even 30 years old yet.

And either yiu purposely do it for your spin, or you just are that ignorant. Yes $26 million is the same number. If you made the same money as your father did 40 years ago are you puffing your chest out?Williams $26 mil from 2025... Davis $26 mil starts in 2027. Look at the 2025 cap...and look at the 2027 cap. It's not the same value at all.
