They may be comfortable with Dickerson backing up Jurgens during the season.  Which may explain them loading up at OG so far.

There should be a problem finding iOLs to snap the ball during OTAs on day 3 or as a UDFA.

Actually like a couple potential C/G in the draft that project to Day 3, Kendall, Slater and Gray all have decent size and speed.

When youtube first bought NFL ticket, they claimed it would support content creators. I have no idea what they meant (regarding NFL film), but that could be why some things are allowed now. 

Good point.  I think of the play breakdowns that we got from D20 (Ryan) and @just relax did in Chipwaggoneer and that JR still does for the blog.  Converting some of those sorts of things to short videos might gather some more views on the YouTube channel.  (JR, can you PM me how you manage the screen views off the All22? I have tried but am not quick enough with the print screen to get what you get.)    I also wonder about maybe figuring a way to get some of our draft and free agent discussions out there.  I really think we could support @VaBeach_Eagle in some content creation.  But how would we get to him?

This screenshot is priceless.

Alongside BG and the look on his face.

Captioned with 'raw dawging the tush push.'

Genius.

Wonder if he could be a Howie post draft trade target.

There's ways. I have a Google Drive where I can grant upload access (I believe) and I might even be able to grant upload access on YouTube but I'd have to look into that. But if anyone has something that they want to give the the board for the channel, it could be worked out.

How is that trolling?  There was speculation the Vikings would be able to flip JJ McCarthy for a 1dt if they decided to stick eoth Darbold instead and not only did he not play as a rookie but is coming off of a blown knee injury.

Your post is like pornography … we are all (except you) able to recognize trolling when we see it.

With that said, what percentage chance do you give the proposition that the Eagles draft Sanders?  The numeric answer you give will be unassailable evidence of your trolling.

He said they practice it.  They work on it a lot from what he said, BUT they don't do it in a live session against the defense.  But, to say that Graham contradicted Sirianni would be inaccurate.  He didn't say that at all.   In fact, he talked extensively about how much they have worked on their technique on that play in practice.  And, they run that play more often than any other play in their arsenal, so they 'practice' it all the time in live game situations, unlike the defenses that they face who don't have dozens and dozens of reps in their back pocket of trying to stop it.

There are some prospects I'd very much like the Eagles to pick up, which means there's very little chance.  I'd feel very good about this draft if we were to come away with Derrick Harmon at DT, either Helm or Terrance Ferguson at TE, a good OG/C to challenge Steen and provide solid depth, and I read the signings of Uche and Ojulari to mean Howie sees a big need at DE/EDGE.  

I'm hoping for two DL who can be starters, another solid OL player, our future TE1, maybe even another LB to hedge against Dean's health.

I would be ecstatic if our first two picks were Harmon at DT and Josiah Stewart at Edge.  I would also use a 2026 3rd plus pick 96 to get up into the middle of Round 2 and select Mason Taylor.

Don't put raw dog and Kay Adams in the same sentence. I'm trying to work here.

It's 2 weeks before the draft and I wish I was more excited. This is just a bad draft class.

I actually like this draft class in a lot of respects. It just lacks the top end talent, but the mid rounds are going to have a lot of gems and the late rounds have a lot of really good athletes to develop.

It feels like a draft damn near perfect for the Eagles at this point in time.  Decent quality players that we may be able to plug in right away and who should be there to use with some of our multiple later picks.

Exactly.

For me, this seems like a boring class for casual fans who want to talk about star QBs and WRs, but an exciting class for draft enthusiasts because of how chaotic and high variance it should be in regards to where players are projected to be selected and how niche the prospects are.

There are just so many "special situation” type of players. This is the sort of draft where GMs and scouts are really going to earn their paychecks. A GM like Howie with a scouting department as successful recently as the eagles and a coaching staff that has proven to be very good at development should have a significant edge this year where "no brainer” picks basically don’t exist.

Yes this is also mirrors was Jason Kelce said: they do it in walkthroughs to get timing and stance down, but don’t actually knock heads when pads are on

So both Graham and Sirianni are telling an accurate story, Graham just doesn’t view walkthroughs as a legit practice

Holy frack, the 2010 first round was amazing. And no good QBs either:

possible HoFers:

Trent Williams

Russel Okung

Eric Berry

Earl Thomas

Ndamukong Suh

Joe Haden

Devin Mccourty

Marquise Pouncey

Hall of Very Good:

Jerry Hughes (still playing)

Derrick Morgan

Brandon Graham

Gerald Mccoy

Tyson Alualu (still playing)

Kareem Jackson (still playing)

Jason Pierre Paul

Bryan Bulaga

Jermaine Gresham

Demaryius Thomas 

Dez Bryant

 

 

Thats ONLY the first round! Insane. And if the Broncos weren’t stupid enough to trade into the first for Tebow, the first guy in the second round who should have been the last guy in the first? All-Pro, 13 year starting OG Rodger Saffold

Are you referring to Grey Zabel or someone else? I like Zabel a lot and he has played G and C. I think it's critical we get a backup C and position versatility makes him very appealing to me.

Well I don't think it's likely that he drops to them at 32.  If he does though, I'd say at worst it's at least a coinflip that the Eagles would draft him.  Someone brought up the previous situation with Lamar when the Eagles last had the 32nd pick and traded back into the second round.  But I bet if they looked back at it they would feel like they could have flipped Lamar for a lot more than they got in that trade back if they just took him. 

I guess a lot of it would come down to would be is there a player that they love that just happened to drop down to them like Quinyon last year or Nolan Smith the year before.  If so then obviously you don't take Sanders.  But if Sanders drops to you and you don't really have anyone out there with a 1st round grade left then I think they have to consider it.  Eagles got the Ravens 2nd round pick and 4th round pick in that draft along with a 2019 second round pick in exchange for the 32nd overall pick and their 4th round pick. 

I think it would be a prudent investment and bet to just take Sanders there.  Know there is a high chance over the next year or two that he will get to start at least a couple games and when he does he will be playing in a stacked offense under a coaching staff you trust to develop QBs so when he does play he will look good enough to get a QB desperate team to ultimately trade a 1st for him that is very likely going to be better than the 32nd overall pick in the draft that they used to get him.  

As part of that they could also flip McKee in this draft then after taking Sanders to collect hopefully a day 2 pick to offset what they would have lost by not trading back in the second round from the 32nd pick anyway.

Just doesn't seem like something he should really be putting out there in public.  Another slip for Graham.  Because now it calls into question, well why wouldn't they practice it against the starting defense?  Why not let the starting defense get to go against that when other teams run it?  Is it because of safety concerns?

The only sane words in your reply are the ones above. Everything else you typed is just hot air trolling.  There is considerably less than one chance in 100 million that sanders will drop to 32 and the Eagles will take him.  Why are you tilting at windmills … even more importantly why are you bothering others with your windmill drivel?
