If we could go round 1. Freeling. 2. Dunker 3. Rutledge is that overkill on the OL?

It probably takes us back to being the best OL in football, and ensures we have enough youth to keep it that way for a long time.

Worth it?

Worth it, especially if they could grab decent edge depth in the mid rounds. Get a great line and that makes hurts serviceable again.

There is no way Lurie is brain dead and tone deaf enough to do that

i doubt he would do it. But you’d get better answers about sirianni in terms of play calling and his playbook/play design.

Depends on Edge/WR/TE talent that's also available. 2 out of 3 would be just fine.

Boobs are too low. Better on the reg

Yes, the Eagles are not not hiring an OC and just letting Sirianni take over the offense. Or hiring some nobody OC and letting Sirianni take full control of the offense. If they were to do that I'm flat out rooting the Eagles to lose every game next season to just let this thing crash and burn so we can get the pain over with as quick as possible.

i can’t remember if I posted this list earlier. I’m so glad I’m not a Jets fan.

At least they are following the Rooney Rule in spirit

Imagine losing Lane, Vic, and Parker and hiring Nagy in a week span. It’s not out of the question.

I tried it but Dunker went before my 2nd round pick.

Thats what I feel too. I never really want to spend high picks on OL. Right now, I feel ok with spending all 3 top picks on them. I think its more so those specific players that I want though.

I obviously think there is no chance that is happening. But hypothetically, that would be Lurie doing to Siri what he did to Chip Kelly. Take full control, and then take full accountability if it fails.

Can't win with Sirianni as OC if Hurts is the QB. Sirianni is too timing reliant. Have to get rid of Hurts to make that work unless Sirianni is actually way better than considered, and the actual problem is his confidence.

I'd rather just get rid of Stoutland honestly. I like Stoutland a lot, but seems like some guys just aren't willing to not be able to pick their staff.

The ironic part is that there's no way Sirianni would ask for that, whereas Chip actually did. It's obvious because if he was after taking control of the offense, he would have done so last year. He didn't because he doesn't have the confidence anymore, at least the current version, and that was likely broken in 2021.

To me that’s what a Cooter hire is essentially. You’re running it back with similar offense to Steichen and seeing if that works which honestly it could

Here’s a crazy idea. He could develop hurts to be able to do things he sees fit for his scheme. We haven’t seen Siri develop any players or coaches during his tenure here. In fact, we’ve seen drastic regression in QB1 each time the previous OC got promoted for a HC job. Siri has been here the whole time and hurts isn’t exactly growing as a QB. And the years he didn’t have elite OC’s, his choice of OC wet the bed and was fired. I understand hurts has limitations, but our HC hasn’t done a thing to address those and help develop the qb

In my opinion though, something really fishy is going on. The Eagles take their time, sure, but the thing is - Kellen Moore like some said was hired not too long after being fired, right? So to me...

Why are they really looking through these candidates? If they were so certain they wanted to fire Nick that they were stocking up on candidates for the next outing, I think they'd just bite the bullet and fire him. But what could be the possible reason they're casting such a huge net and looking so hard into third party opinions of their offensive struggles, while seeming to barely be willing to offer candidates? What could be the idea here?

I think one dark horse idea we could watch out for, is that Lurie and Howie are taking the approach I mentioned before. The Eagles like to get out ahead of issues when possible. They like to be a step early rather than a step late. It's possible that their takeaway, unlike fans who only place blame, is that their process for sustaining success after Super Bowl berths is inherently flawed - because it's happened after every single one of the past three times they've been there.

It's possible they could be looking into building a system that is heavily collaborative, which lacks a true offensive coordinator and is managed not by Nick, but by a brain trust. Like a different kind of model for coordinating the offense - think how Belichick, despite not coaching offense, sometimes didn't name an offensive coordinator during the years Josh McDaniels was not with New England. By doing this, it would cut off the head of the snake of the offensive coordinator turnover after success that plagued our team since 2017, and open the door to sustained success regardless of who our QB or Head Coach is.

There's no way to know for sure, but they're behaving really oddly and I think they might be scheming something. That scheming might go out the window if the right candidate comes up, but I have a feeling Lurie, despite being said to be fairly relaxed in terms of his patience for the search, has to be aware of candidates available. Their behavior is not of a team that views themselves to have an urgent hire to be made, and considering how urgent the Eagles often are when there's something that they consider necessary...that suggests some other idea.

Sirianni isn't a QB coach. Hurts has been in the league six years. If the guy can't throw a basic timing route half consistently after being in the league six years, that's not really a head coaching problem of all things. It's like saying that WR coaches in the NFL should be teaching people how to catch. That should be handled at the QB coach level at the VERY most, OCs shouldn't even have to address that.

Contrasting opinion. In theory this is not the stupidest idea I've ever heard but in the NFL it's just not possible. Too much ego on the line, too much money for an organization to likely be willing to spend, etc. The model would crumple as soon as a season went awry, and it would because it's the Browns, because you'd get one side being like "Well at least MY side of the ball was fine!"

Want a scary thought? Imagine how it would be with 2013 Chip?

"Well, last I checked my offense was ranked great, if your defense is too tired, try giving them more smoothies." LOL

A team actually won the SB like this, and then the guy running their D became Head Coach in Philly the next year.

Ditka was not allowed in the defensive team meeting room and Buddy did not answer to him.
