May 1, 20242 yr Like I said that’s not speaking poorly of Jurgens. Just because he’s not looking like the best C of all times for us doesn’t mean I’m stating he sucks. Huge divide in between all that.
May 1, 20242 yr I’m not going into page ten defending Jason Kelce to you. Dude was a stud…his whole career!
May 1, 20242 yr Anybody else think there won’t be a dropoff calling the assignments and the execution at C going from the greatest we’ve ever known to Jurgens? Or can we move forward past the glaringly most obvious?

Just that one position.Anxious for your response because there are other centers that are also pro bowlers. What is your criteria? Jason Kelce is what made a stud C every single season of his career!
May 1, 20242 yr Author Still waiting for the list of what qualifies as a pro bowl center. Since you are "educated" and "aware" this should be a breeze

Just basic and obvious stuff I keep explaining to you …seemingly endlessly. No, as of yet, I have yet for you to explain it to me. 2 pages ago you were in panic mode,now it's not that significant???? That's "consistent"????
May 1, 20242 yr Author Was Kelce the best C we ever had? Sure, I would say so. He also had top notch guys playing next to him most of his career,which helps individuals immensely as a unit. So what are the stats between C #1 and C #32 league wide? It's a simple question? I will answer myself because I know you won't do it. I'm sure 1 is not allowing QB sacks/pressures,so what are the others? I would think not missing games during the year would be a factor you could count. But seriously this chasm between Kelce and Jurgens is so immense you know its a BIG drop off before one snap has been played? Jurgens played at RG(if you recall) and he got to hear Kelce for 17 games(plus pre and 2 camps) as to "how and why I called what I did" and he was hand picked by Kelce. That's a nice head start over a stone cold rookie,so your initial panic was unfounded and I'm glad you returned to sensible. Does Jurgens have things to learn. Of course. I never said he didn't. But there are 32 C's in the league and if they can't play the position,they don't last long. He's probably not going to make the pro bowl in year 1,but there is no need for all the panic and name calling and thinking you are better than everyone else when someone else points things out. It's supposed to be a DISCUSSION board

May 1, 20242 yr Enjoy watching the highlight film from this draft class. I’m including undrafted RB Milton. Think he’s the compliment to Shipley. Just so much to be optimistic about with these guys.

If we can avoid collapsing and play solid consistent ball we can be better than last year. better RB and maybe Smith can win the slot start. New OC,so I hope he knows how to use Goedert correctly. I think we can compete with anyone. Just sayin'

Just so much to be optimistic about with these guys. Well, I'm happy we got some young talent in at RB. Perhaps we can score a usable #1 after Bark is done. Also glad to pick up A. Smith. I watched alot on him and think he will be a nice asset at slot for years to come. Mostly thrilled Howie took the plunge at DB. If these 2 work out(and I see no reason they won't except the transition may be harder for Mitchell) then Howie will know he can indeed draft DB's with a little less trepidation than before. I think that will give him a boost and it certainly would the fan base as far as getting players at any position. Still a little bothered by the Hunt pick. Still seems high to me,but he was on our radar and I hope he can be a BU at least as the season progresses.Overall very happy with the draft and adding even more picks next year. I am a bit higher on this team than some and what the "rankings" show. I think those rankings fail to understand how badly we used Goedert last year. if used correctly along with Smith we can compete with anyone. I think Mitchell and DeJean will show they are worthy of inheriting starting jobs next year and contribute also as this year moves along. We wanted go get younger and Howie has been doing that over the last few drafts. So he got what we all wanted. Moore should open up this offense and I am anxious to see what changes will be made on defense. Should be alot of fun to watch this team this year.
May 1, 20242 yr Author https://sports.yahoo.com/2024-eagles-undrafted-free-agent-231651346.html?fr=sycsrp_catchall Once again we are really good at signing UDFA's. Some were even thought be round 5 picks which is excellent value
May 1, 20242 yr Author https://www.nfl.com/prospects/anim-dankwah/32004441-4e68-5228-354e-f29ba41ceed5 This guy sounds like a Mailata type project. One that with patience, will pay off as a solid BU to him in 2-3 years
