He's better than most of the guys who got moreI think his age, injury history and the fact that he doesn't block well anymore makes him worth $8M at most. But I think Howie worked his magic to $7M guaranteed with incentives. Also, the market dried up. If it wasn't for his dead cap hit, I don't think he's an Eagle.

Not sure on the mental side of things though. My point is don’t be shocked if they go QB early in the draft.What has he done at PSU his entire career to make that true? He hasn’t done anything of merit. He was hyped up early and then never performed. At least hurts led his team in college to the national championship and then the playoffs with OU. Allar was on some loaded teams and wasn’t good. His games vs the best teams were terrible. The one that sticks out to me is the game against Oregon this past season. White out. He was straight trash.
19 hours ago19 hr Glad Joe Dirt is back. As far as A.J. I'm happy to keep him if we can. But if I remember right on almost all the games he got over a hundred yards last year we lost.

All he does is win games.Doesnt Beck have an issue with his elbow ? .. but I do agree. he's won almost everything between Georgia and Miami. he has prototypical size and he's only 23 so he's not THAT old...

He’s too much of a meltdown risk for my taste.

Not sure on the mental side of things though. My point is don’t be shocked if they go QB early in the draft.Allar LATE in the draft would make sense as a value/upside/developmental pick. I wouldn't touch him in the first 4 or 5 rounds though. I'd much prefer Taylen Green or Cole Payton for such a role. Both have way more upside and have more legitimate reasons for being a developmental pick, while Allar had every advantage and opportunity to improve and succeed yet never did.
19 hours ago19 hr Nice to get Goedert back. Now draft a TE in say the 3rd round and let the new guy be the understudy for a year just as Dallas was under Ertz.Something will get done at S but the real issue is at DE. Something fundamental needs to be done there. I hate using the 1st rounder on something other than OL but if the right DE is there then I would think that's the pick unless we make a trade for someone before the draft.

Another year of you being enamored with measureables instead of ability eh?Green should become a TE immediately

19 hours ago19 hr With $36M in salary cap I want to see them get a new DeVonta deal done this offseason in addition to Carter. Get him on a new new deal before his big breakout All Pro yesr this upcoming season.

19 hours ago19 hr 1 hour ago, T-1000 said:He's missed 12 games over those three seasons which you conveniently leave out in trying to justify calling him a 550 yard guy. Call him injury prone, fine, but you are factually you incorrect in calling him a 550 yard replacement level tight end. Over those last three seasons he has averaged 43.8 yards per game which is 745 yards per 17 games. Last year was his lowest number at 39.4 ypg which is still 670 yards per 17 games. The average TE in the NFL doesn't produce at that level.He’s a 550 yard guy
19 hours ago19 hr 11 minutes ago, ToastJenkins said:DoubtfulI’m not crazy about the idea of him being traded either, but I’d stop far short of saying it’s ‘doubtful’ to happen
19 hours ago19 hr 1 hour ago, kiwieagle said:Makes bringing Calcy back all the more perplexing. Surely their plan for TE room can't just be replacing Granson with MundtProbably so they don't have a "need" or "hole" at the position. Calcaterra could be cut later.

Another year of you being enamored with measureables instead of ability eh?Green should become a TE immediatelyAs a late round development prospect, measurables are exactly what you want! The entire point is you are making a low cost investment with a low probability of success, but if you are successful there is a huge ROI.Green has a great arm and shows the ability to throw on the run. He needs a ton of work on pre-snap reads, pocket presence, and mechanics for more consistent accuracy. But that's why coaching exists.
19 hours ago19 hr IF Howie is going to trade AJ before June 1st, he must have some financial trick up his sleeve, or is going to get great picks in return.

I wouldn't be too picky at this point. A 1st and a 3rd, a 2nd and a 3rd...I dont care much. Keeping him is fine too.

No denying the kid is an alien, but it doesnt matter bc he still has to be taught high school level stuff. Aint nobody got time for that. You loved Milroe too. Same kind of bust
