With BG it's about his longevity, who he was to the team as a leader and of course the biggest play he made.  He was consistently a good player but rarely had Pro Bowl seasons

His ability to be effective both inside and out was a plus as was his ability to set the edge.

I'm glad BG got to retire on the Super Bowl win. Probably one of those players whose in game banter met his career production.  Glad to have seem him play so long

Don't worry kid, keep writing him those fan letters. Maybe he WILL come to your birthday party with you and your mom in the backyard one of these years.

 

Sounds like you're the one sending fan letters with how emotionally upset you get anytime I say something about Kelce that isn't praising him.

Ordered a Barkley SB jersey a while ago. No word. However, I do remember it saying est time was mid April so not worried yet.

Pretty sure Brandon Graham wasn’t at kelce’s retirement either.

There were so many misses in the 90's in the first round. 95 we took Mamula over Sapp.  I think we took Renfro with the compensatory pick. Renfro over Dana Stubblefield.  Jon Harris in the 97 draft.  It hurts to think about.  

Amazing how it’s almost 30 years since the Jon Harris draft and though I don’t recall which guy it was, I recall one of the commentators saying he had to sit down after that pick. 

He didn't last long out there

 

Graham came into the league when they were still running out 270+ lb 4-3 DEs and playing base defense a huge % of the time. We had Cole then at RDE, and I always thought Graham was a square peg, round hole fit for a true 4-3 LDE. Then we had the Washburn fiasco followed by the Billy Davis years. It wasn’t til Schwartz came in that Graham got a fair shake. I think it’s absolutely fair to say we never truly saw Graham’s upside as a player, at least not for an extended period in his prime.

I say that to say, anyone thinking Graham’s legacy is lesser because of his career sack production is missing what made his career so unique. He’s an all-timer for sure, and one of my favorite Eagles.

I think the proper Eagles Mount Rushmore, for the entire history of the franchise, is: Bednarik, Van Buren, Reggie and Kelce. That 4th spot is debatable. The 1st 3 aren't in my mind. Reggie left and won a ring in GB, but he's the best DE of all time and arguably the best defensive player of all time (him or LT). 

To not have Dawkins on the Eagles Mount Rushmore is actually one of the seven deadly sins.

I ordered a Kelly Green SB Saquon jersey, with no notices, but they did say it would be May before it arrives when I ordered it.

Finally watched the press conference. What a legend. So happy to see him go out with a Super Bowl victory. Thanks for LII and LIX, BG.

I ordered one a week or so ago and it said that it wouldn't ship until the 25th (or maybe it was the 28th). Log into Fanatics and see if they can give you an update. 

LOL

I received something, unexpectedly and something that I didn't order, from Fanatics via UPS today (I'll post a pic of it later). The note in the box says that it's from the "Fanatics Affiliate Team":

I'm assuming that they sent it because they got purchases from the board's affiliate link and we're a Philadelphia Eagles fan website and I'm assuming it's from them because the shipping label has my full name, address and cell number on it but if it was someone here that had it sent, let me know. 

This is what Fanatics sent me:

Spoiler

 

 

 

 In 2018, someone on the old EMB sent me some from LII but so much has been going on since 2018 here, that I don't remember exactly who sent it now (though I have an idea between 2 or 3 people).

Im pretty sure that Ben stiller photo op and pod was recorded before Tuesday. They just posted it on Tuesday as that is when they released their new episode

Awesome that they gave that to you. Did yours have pieces of it that were Lombardi trophy shaped? I ask cause mine didn’t but the SB LII did.

Not praise him? You've been insulting him for awhile now for no reason but to troll. Even claimed you were going to boo him at the parade (though everyone knew you were too much of a coward for that)
