Smith is the top SLOT WR in this draft,also a great addition besides Davis. Carlies(S) is being under rated in my view. If I get him in 5 as well as the others I would be very happy

Have to see if he remains in round 5. IDK that he will. But RB's are no longer priority picks now. Lots of decent ones can be had late. Have to see if he moves up boards or not

I don’t fully support RBs not being priority picks. Can have that RB player get 20 touches. Be involved effecting many more plays than just those he touches the ball as well.

Don’t believe that’s a quality that can be coached to improve. He can be taught by track coaches to come out of the gates like a sprinter quicker. But that’s just part of the whole draft process all these kids are brought through these days. 

With a not so hot O line I'm wondering if there is a bit of being tentatvie(as opposed to patient),so perhaps his initial burst isn't as bad as it seems???? The combine will tell me more

The trade back to 28 netted the 60 pick and Stover would be a terrific TE2

My early leanings are towards trading back similar to where you chose at 28. But falling from 22 to 28 needs to fetch more than just the 60th pick. Has the perception of being just a give up trade because you can’t decide whom to take at 22.

Corum one of the better RB's this draft. I don't see him going in round 1. Most teams now use the RBBC. I'm seeing RB's in late 2 early 3 so they don't seem to be a priority

I think in that mock I got a 4th or 5th in the 2025 draft which doesn't show on this years mock. So pick 60 and a 4th/5th in 2025

22 to 28 move on the first round if the draft I have to consider moving back a Tier level of talent.

6 spots. 6 players coming off the board. That’s significant to me.

You can’t look anywhere and find any fan that values Day Two of the draft more than me either.

To move back from 22 to 28 for only gaining the 60th pick? I would only move that direction if the prevailing consensus concluded that portion of the draft was dreadful place to reside in.

I was impressed by Davis going on a deep route TD,so he is a threat in the RZ

LOL I got Stover with pick 60 and a nice edge at 28 and another pick in 2025. We need quality AND quantity

Needs work on his balance. If he gets that down he can be a beast

Oh well long way to go.just taking first shots at it LOL

Not the only trade possibility,just that was the best one at the time

At this point who knows what’s going on. I definitely think there’s something because of course the team are going to deny it.

I'm not really sure. But the fact from the article remains that Adam Schefter texted "someone" in the organization. This could've been a player, coach, office personnel or even Howie or Lurie. And yes, of course denial would be my expected response. We never know. So I don't put much weight in this stuff.

Hey look, we're on page 69!

Well…we we're DOH!

You know this team has always been about run first,so it was interesting we chose Moore because he leans towards the passing game which would seem to violate "tradition". But we have to face the league is changing and more pass oriented than ever. Another reason I like Davis. Watch that deep TD route. It was a simple route which is fine.; I can't ask my RB to run WR routes,but it was nice for me to see that play. It made me smile. Especially from a 216 pound RB. I could see those for the scatbacks that weigh 170. But seeing that sure added to his value for me. Having a 216 pound banger running EZ routes inside the 20 is just added problems for defenses

https://draftwire.usatoday.com/lists/2024-nfl-scouting-combine-biggest-snubs-at-each-position/  Wouldn't shock me to see Howie pick one of these combine snubs. That "RB" listed first sure looks like a TE project to me LOL. The TCU S is also intriguing

Malik Washington. I had Smith as the top slot,but this kid blows him away. he won't last until round 5,so he would have to go alot higher. This kid will be an amazing slot somewhere(I hope it's here) Draft this kid and forget about the slot for 4 years. Played for Northwestern,then transferred to Virginia his graduate year and set their stat books on fire. If you want a difference maker,not just a solid guy,this is the kid. he should scream up draft boards after the combine. Keep an eye on him. This kid is super versatile and the first guy I am excited about this year. he reminds me of JJ 2.0. He can run deep routes from the slot,play out or kill you out of the backfield. You know I can pick WR's,this kid needs to be in Kelly green. IDK where he is on boards but he looks like a top 100 to me. He won't stay under the radar for long. I'm going to assume we would need to use the round 3 on him,or drop back the late 2 and take him at the end of 2. Really high on this kid. I totally love my guy Harrison,he could go #1 overall,but tempering things and choosing guys we have shots at, this kid does it for me. A great NEW weapon for Moore to use in our offense and a totally viable weapon for Hurts. You heard it here first. Watch this kid,he will light it up

I'm gonna drop him in around pick 60-70. Not as good as JJ, but WOW he has the same skill set. I want him

https://www.nflmockdraftdatabase.com/big-boards/2024/consensus-big-board-2024?pos=WR  BB has him at 122. He's not going to stay there

Projected compensatory picks: One in Round 3; two in Round 5; one in Round 6. 

Key free-agent losses: Andre Dillard (Titans), C.J. Gardner-Johnson (Lions), Javon Hargrave (49ers), Miles Sanders (Panthers), Isaac Seumalo (Steelers).

Key free-agent additions: None.

 

Comp-pick analysis: The Eagles played the compensatory pick game perfectly. They knew they would have a large number of players depart in free agency, and they didn’t add any projected qualifying free agents to the team. Philadelphia should receive the maximum number of picks, including a third-rounder for Hargrave.
