It is the Fangio part. Which DJ already caught wind of. But Rosie straight mentioned the urgency of not being able to hold off until later because of DJ’s best available list having him in there. This small school kid wasn’t completely hidden. But was over 200 ranked prospect on everybody else list.

Kiper had him at 64

So on the two stations that televised the draft..he was showing on best avaliable.   

The idea was that the Eagles were thinking that he isn't really under the radar.   Not so much....I have to follow Jeremiah advice.

But Fangio really championed him. Is what it is.  

People say Howie needs to listen to the coaches and follow the board and they graded Hunt highly and he listened to the coaches. 
 

And now everyone is mad about the pick lol 

Not going to call Hunt a reach though because unless someone has NFL connections nobody knows if he was high on others boards would hope Howie and Co. have a far better feel for when a guy will be selected then anyone on this board or any ranking site

The unity last night was a beautiful thing. Even if it was hating the pick.  I was enjoying it.    Reality comes back today with all these picks... we know there are going to be so many disagreements.  

But interesting seeing both stations that televise the draft had Hunt ranked late 2nd and early 3rd.  And had been showing on the best available list for a while.   

Round 1 • Pick 22 (22) • CB Quinyon Mitchell

Round 2 • Pick 8 (40) • CB Cooper DeJean

Round 3 • Pick 31 (94) • EDGE Jalyx Hunt

Round 4 • Pick 20 (120) • From through Steelers

Round 4 • Pick 23 (123) • From Browns through Texans

Round 4 • Pick 32 (132) • Compensatory Selection

Round 5 • Pick 17 (152) • From Seahawks through Commanders

Round 5 • Pick 36 (171) • Compensatory Selection

Round 5 • Pick 37 (172) • Compensatory Selection

Round 6 • Pick 34 (210) • Compensatory Selection

It's sad for me that we pay numerous scouts,who travel the countryside ALL YEAR,do intense interviews,spend time away from family and friends and that part of Howies huge paycheck is to evaluate those notes,watch various videos,only to rely on some has beens mock draft in the end. He would do better just to ASK THIS BOARD. I say we submit this to Lurie. I think $400,000.00(guaranteed of course 🤣) for each of us would cover it. Well wait make it an even 500k because we will all need agents

Not going to call Hunt a reach though

OK I will, He's a REACH

"This is a perfect developmental guy for us because of the tools in his body    You DON'T draft "devlopmental guys" in round 3. Just stop trying to qualify this. It was a BAD pick. I LIKE the kid,but to say this wasn't a reach is fallacy. On to "Eagles greener" pastures today. OK I'm done and I'm not arguing about it.BTW GOOD MORNING crew!!!

Traded back again with Miami lol Maybe we're going after Hunts brother Mike

I hope they post DJ's back 4 best available rounds, so I know who we're picking in advance

I hope they trade back the round 6 pick,because I have made myself available in round 7. I will await their call

Back again to 128

Copy,quote and paste always gets me in trouble LOL

They keep trading back because they know I have made myself available and they WANT ME

Why didn't we move up for CADE STOVER??? Is Howie on drugs????

I stand by that comment lol I’m not in nfl circles I have no clue how these players are truly viewed. Draft ranking site isn’t the actual nfl scouts and gms 

We let Tennssee have Stover with our pick. This is becoming a ishhow already today

And I will stand by mine

Yeah let's let a viable TE just go elsewhere,Really DUMB. 

I have a new motto to hang over Howies door "we may start slow,but we fade fast"

First 2 picks were great!!! Then  BS pick followed up by allowing more viable players top walk. Really sad to see. Stover was at least a VIABLE "developmental" player who could have even earned playing time THIS year

I accept that I don't know what I don't know and some things have to be left to the pros.

I’ve already liked the start of today. Traded down twice.

gained extra 3rd in 2025 and 5th in 2025
