How can Stidham be worse than Newton, seriously?  I’ll be quite ticked off if Belichick lucks into drafting another franchise QB.  Playing Newton this season has been sheer stupidity 

They already have five wins. They still have the Chargers, Miami with Tua Tagovailoa and the Jets. They very easily are going to get six or seven wins. I’m not sure picking like 12-17 you are going to be high enough to get fields or lance.

I was tempted but then remembered the hype Ward received last season as the only guy that would catch a ball

Fulgham has come back to Earth quicker

Can we get flexed out of these primetime games please?

Didn't know he did one. Cliff notes?

Fulgham is more polished as a WR. I think he'll snap out of this funk. He wasn't even targeted in the 1st half of last weeks game. That's part of the issue also

How many people remember 1985 when some were losing their heads after the team went to a SB with their starting QB, why they'd draft this QB in the 2nd round? They kept that starter another 2 years while this prospect sat. When he did finally start, that QB managed to save a head coach that understood as much as Doug Pederson about offenses.  That QB was Randall Cunningham, and that coach was Buddy Ryan. Eventually Ryan was exposed as having no offensive skills, but Randall, he moved on to take Vikings to a SB after a 15–1 regular season record with 34 touchdown passes, only 10 interceptions, and 3,704 passing yards.

Randall never got the Vikings to the Super Bowl. The Atlanta Falcons beat them that year and then got destroyed by the Broncos.

Yeah that’s been a problem for me with Travis fulgham. Why the heck does he only have two targets in the first half of the last two games? It’s kind of been like this since he’s come into play. Even in the Steelers game it took him until the second half to get him the ball. In the ravens game it was the same thing. This is been an ongoing problem that the Eagles just refuse to throw him the ball early in the game. I imagine it’s pretty tough to not have the ball thrown to you for an entire half and then all the sudden in the end of the third-quarter and fourth-quarter you’re getting targeted

Only reason why I remember it is because the Vikings notoriously have issues with kickers in the playoffs. And when they lost that game it came down to their kicker who I think didn’t miss a field-goal all year and missed it

but to your point jaws was also 34 years old going on 35 years old. So it made sense to draft a future replacement as he was likely close to the end anyway. A couple weeks back we had a discussion literally every team that has done this has done it over the last 20 years has been when a quarterback has been 34 years or older. The only one who has an over the last 20 years was Aaron Rodgers because they didn’t know what he was when they drafted Brian brohm as he never played until that season. And mcnabb (Vick who was 33) and both cases the guy they drafted didn’t work out.

What kind of toad are you licking?

Cunningham was a subpar QB in PHI who never bothered to learn the playbook and was responsible for making Rich Kotite look like an even worse head coach than he already was.  He looked like a good QB in MIN because he was lobbing deep balls to Randy Moss — even Culpepper could do that.

Jaworski was already old in 1983 when the Eagles should have drafted a real QB in Dan Marino.  Instead they waited until 1985 when Jaworski was almost in a casket to draft an athlete trying to play QB — and that athlete held a championship level defense back from winning anything.

Yeah sorry. I was researching it as I posted it. My point was that Jaws also looked bad, and they they kept Jaws playing in spite of his age.

Not sure why it's so hard to get the ball in the hands of your best playmakers

Yeah jaws was 34 years old when they drafted Randall Cunningham. It made sense at that point in time to find his replacement. He was 32 in 1983 which I could understand at that point if you’re taking a quarterback thinking his best days are behind him.

 That said Randall was super athletic but underachieved here. He has some amazing highlight reel plays but when I look back on that arrow it’s missed opportunities because they had a generational defense and yet squandered it. Frankly Ron Jaworski if he was in his prime during that defensive era I think the Eagles probably win a Super Bowl. Cunningham never wanting to learn the playbook hurt the eagles. some of it their offensive line wasn’t exactly great for parts of his tenure.

It’s legitimately the same thing I’ve said for the last 2 years and this year. This coaching staff has no clue who the personnel is and how to maximize their strengths. Like the 49ers got Deebo Samuel back yesterday, they found ways even though he and Raheem Mostert were the only two weapons they had against the Rams. And yet he manage to pull out 11 catches for 130 yards. Kyle Shanahan figured out ways to get the ball into his hands and get him open and then utilize his run after catch ability. 

Looking ahead... the Eagles need to seriously consider how to get out from under some bad contract albatrosses so that they aren't dragging more dead money into 2022 and beyond than absolutely necessary.  

 

Tradable players that would likely hurt in the short run, but might be good for the long term.  These are un-emotional suggestions and I like nearly all of these players and would hate to see them go.


Lane Johnson.  Post-June 1 - His cap number for 2021 drops to only about $9M (saving $8M in 2021), but carries about $21M dead into 2022... still, it ends it there.   I love Lane's effort, his moxie, his willingness to speak his mind.  But, he's just not that guy anymore.  Hopefully a team will give something to get him after this surgery.  He wouldn't be tradable before June 1st anyway with the cap situation, and now wouldn't be until he can pass a physical anyway.  I see him as a guy who could come in and play early in the season, prove he's healthy and be traded before the deadline.  That way he maximizes his worth for this team, and proves he's healthy, but I wouldn't wait around and milk the thing.  Just get it done.  This eliminates any cap hits in 2023 and beyond.

Brandon Brooks.  He's tradable (according to the cap) pre-June 1, and they'd save $2.5M for 2021, and be off the hook moving forward.  He'll likely get very little value in return coming off the injury, but... it needs to be done.   Equally, they could let him prove he's healthy and trade him once the season is underway, as they can with Lane Johnson.  In that case, they'd likely save close to another $8M on the cap in 2021, but roll that cost into 2022.  AND, they would have to use another roster spot to do it early, meaning they'd have to expose an OL they'd rather keep.  Is the extra draft compensation worth that?   Nah... maybe carry him through the first couple weeks of PS, and then trade him a week before the season to prove his health. 

Brandon Graham.  Having his best season as a pro... but, he's just too pricey.  Again, he'll likely fetch very little, but a new team adding him would get him for $13M, and likely could just resign him to a better deal for 2021 and have some flexibility with him.  Trading him doesn't help the cap much for 2021.  Only if its another post-June 1 deal.  But, trading him early means getting all his money off the books for 2022.  And maybe they can swing the trade for a 2021 draft pick.  They save $700k trading him before June 1.

Fletcher Cox.  Another painful choice. Trading him pre-June 1 frees up nearly $3M, but more importantly removes any cost moving forward.  He'll have a market, and they can get something in draft compensation for him from a contender.  Maybe they can steal a 2nd round pick... so something in the mid to late 50s or early 60s.   With a second conditional pick that could rise as high as another 2nd.  

Javon Hargrave.  Yup.  Look to unload him.  Anything you get is a plus.  And trading him frees up $5.4M in 2021, and eliminates his cost moving forward into 2022.

Darius Slay.  Undoing Howie's offseason from 2019 into 2020... trading Slay saves another $6M and gets him off the books for 2022 as well.   Sure, it leaves the cupboard completely bare at CB.  But, let's be real, this team isn't contending in 2021 or 2022.  Rip the band-aids off and remove the handicap from the new GM moving forward.

Malik Jackson.  Just cut him.   No one will trade for him, I'm certain... though they could try.  But, I'd move on from him, again - pre-June 1 to avoid spilling any of that money into 2022.

 

Sure, this is a bit of a gutting.   The DL looks very different.  DT is now a gaping hole.  Hassan Ridgeway elevates to our best DT.  So be it.  We need to get younger and cheaper.  Cox, Barnett and Slay might bring back some decent trade compensation while also reducing the costs moving forward.  Hard decisions to make, certainly, but ones that need to be made and open up some reps to let the young cheap guys grow.  And getting a 2nd round pick (Cox), maybe a 3rd or 4th (Slay) and a 4th or 5th (Graham) might just allow this team to find some gems in the later rounds (different guys picking, of course!).   But, this scouting department has found some depth DTs in the past... so maybe its not too bad for 2022.

Thats not what he said at all. He literally says you can do both, but if you have someone you trust it makes sense to give that part of the job to someone else.

"In my opinion, you definitely need a head coach that’s going to be what the title says he is, a head coach of a team,” he says. "You get head coaches as offensive coordinators, and a lot of focus is on that side of the ball. It has to be done that way when you are calling the plays. But when you get that (head coach) title, your job is to run the team. Not saying you can’t call the plays. But if you do have someone you trust who has had success (calling plays), there’s no reason why you wouldn’t let him do that.”

Likely me just reading into it too much but that seems like a shot at Doug

It is clear we need to move some big contracts in the offseason but will they be able to is the biggest question.

Yeah let’s get rid of every good player we have on OL and DL. Maybe then we can be like 70 million under the cap like the Texans and win the Cap Award. Sounds like a great plan.

I'd do all of that as soon as possible.  I'd also get rid of McLeod but I don't think there's any getting out from that contract.  Trading Ertz will help too. 

I'd like to see at the very least, a 4th round pick to make up for the Avery trade and an additional 3 picks brought in from trades.

Few drafts have impact the first season, sure you get lucky, like Kelce in the 6th rd immediately stepping in at center. But rarely.

A lot of pro bowl players don't reach that status until well into their careers, what you look for in drafts are solid starters and reserves who follow an upward trajectory.

The problem with this team hasn't been drafting the last five years (sure, you can cherry pick any draft for any team, I mean NE took Brady in the 6th rd, if they're so smart, how come they left him exposed for so long?), but the unwillingness to reload and blowing the cap with bad extensions and FA signings and trades. Slay is probably the first good move since they signed Jenkins and McLeod.

If they drafted better, then they would not have to rely on FAs as much.

If Cunningham had not been injured during the first game of the 1991 season, the Eagles would have likely gone far into the playoffs that year...possibly the Super Bowl.  Randall was in his prime and that defense was among the best ever in the history of the NFL.   

They went 10-6 with the likes of Jim McMahon, Brad Goebel, Jeff Kemp and Pat Ryan at QB.  Easily a 13-3 team had Randall started every game that year. 

Just IR him

Opeta is out, and Herbig has for some reason been benched. I'd rather see Pryor at RG with Driscoll at RT. Peters with a bad toe playing RG for the 1st time next to Pryor who can't handle stunts seems like a recipe for disaster.

It’s legitimately the same thing I’ve said for the last 2 years and this year. This coaching staff has no clue who the personnel is and how to maximize their strengths. Like the 49ers got Deebo Samuel back yesterday, they found ways even though he and Raheem Mostert were the only two weapons they had against the Rams. And yet he manage to pull out 11 catches for 130 yards. Kyle Shanahan figured out ways to get the ball into his hands and get him open and then utilize his run after catch ability. 

Shanahan is excellent at doing that. They bring all these offensive minded coaches in and the offense looks like it did last year
