YAC is not a position lol 

Really I believe it will extend further than an add to it. We’ll see more of these plays utilized effectively.  Believe it’s a key element in any O.

We are not going to be running Smith on the same plays we run Geodart.

Can they both be guys that work the underneath and middles Of the field sure but they aren’t replacing each other.

Exactly…no it is not. Made very clear wasn’t ever speaking about the TE2 position or anything like that. Even though still seems like you guys blocked that whole part out of the point I was attempting to get across.

Because your ass insistent on saying they are replacing Geodart lmao they aren’t….. just being able to provide YAC plays isn’t the same as replacing Geodart what don’t you understand about that.

But actually…yes some of them really are the exact same plays he’d be running instead of Goedert.

Again you can just say we have other guys that can provide YAC plays hopefully they are not replacing Geodart.

I kept saying Goedert was the only guy we had that could execute these specific area of the O effectively. So yes …we had nobody who could do these effectively when our TE1 was out. Never said replace Goedert’s whole job. Never said take over his TE1 job…in fact clearly pointed out this was not what I was speaking about.

Yet if you throw that pass to Geodart and he is 1 on 1 with a DB that a huge mid match…. V Smith on the same DB???? What your aiming to do is different for both guys to utilized them so no they aren’t replacing Geodart even on the similar play design

Lmao no one person has disputed the ability to add YAC plays to different guys or designs it was the simple wrong context of saying REPLACING GEODART!!!!

True…it could be a black guy…a short guy…a foreign guy….a WR…a RB….a guy that eats at Subway….

It’s nice we have that now…which we lacked last season

Can be a black guy or a foreigner or any other race hell can even be shorter as long as they are a TE could definitely have a chance to replace Geodart then.

But any other position isn’t replacing Geodart lmao 

However, his true calling might be as a gadget guy. He expands play-calling options with his ability as an occasional ball-carrier and open-field explorer, where the quick game and West Coast routes would allow him to get the ball in his hands and do his thing.

Speaking during his post-draft press conference, Howie Roseman indicated the Eagles are only signing seven UDFAs. That’s a smaller group than usual and it fits the theme of them not loving the talent available in this year’s class.

Howie Roseman indicates that the Eagles put more emphasis on their end of season futures signings (ex: Julian Okwara, Darian Kinnard) and less on UDFA this year due to the (lacking) quality of this year’s draft talent.

Size to break initial tackle after catch. Quick gather and leap to rescue overthrows. High-end potential with ball in his hands. Acceleration to split tacklers with speed to defeat angles and house it. Can get after it as slot blocker.

•  Eagles add an offensive tackle prospect after not landing one in the draft. Dankwah is a big man at nearly 6’8”, 353 pounds. He also has long arms (82 percentile arm length, 94 percentile wingspan). Worth enrolling him at Jeff Stoutland University.
• NFL.com’s Lance Zierlein had Hall projected as a fourth- or fifth-round pick. Adding some more DT depth is nice.

I don’t like these thoughts. Maybe proves to be accurate…but I disagree. I liked much about this draft class. Be very interesting to come back later testing these words from our GM and Overlord.

But really overall thought Rosie did a solid job. Got Fangio his guys he wanted to build his D around. Looking forward to the D a quality experienced coach can build and provide us. 

Holding fast at 22 paid off big time. Even though it was a bit lofty of value on paper to pay to trade up in the second round…the juice should be worth the squeeze. Trading back adding ammo for the future should benefit our…ughh future. If Fangio really championing Hunt? I’ll look forward to what dividends it provides. Grabbed a quality RB2. Not leaping to any lengths believing he will ever be considered RB1 really(not opinion based on Saquan). Ax Man Jr just felt right. In our less than stellar  off ball LB room think he can contribute and provide finding his place in there. Grabbed two G prospects to battle to take it out for a job.

Just one pick away on day three from bringing in Mason McCormack. He could have come in battling for a starting position at G and C. But that’s my own opinion on how high I was of that prospect.
