I'm all for adding picks, but I see Ertz and Cox (maybe) as the only players on the team (that I'd consider trading) worthy of garnering meaningful picks.

Aside from them, my real goal would be to clear out the bad contracts for 7th round picks years in the future to injured teams who need a vet.

i'm in for trading ertz before the deadline or before next draft. cox is in need of a restructured contract , wentz too if he keeps this crap show up. then this team has to hit on ALL draft picks

If you don't have final say on draft picks, then you're not the GM.  It's just a fake title on the website.  

Just because you have final say doesn’t mean it was your decision. I don’t and never will believe the Hurts pick was anyone but Doug. Howie may have had final say but that was all Doug.

Doug isn’t even allowed to put his own staff together. There’s no way he has the power to make second round picks.

I have to say, scratching and clawing just to make the playoffs has been exhausting the past two years. It hasn’t been fun to watch at all. 

So you’d rather watch the team suck? The Jags, Browns, and several other teams have a top 5-10 pick almost every year.

Eh i still think dallas just cause their schedule is awful wins 9-10 games. 

heck with how we are playing I’m not sure we get to 7-8 wins. Bengals aren’t a gimme game. If the DL plays like it did today burrow has weapons to beat us.

McVay out coached Schwartz really bad

1) No, but we’re in purgatory. Not good enough to win but not bad enough to bottom out. We had a lot of injuries in 2018 and 2019 so I could excuse some of it, but here we are in the same position, digging a hole and having to dig out of it. It’s exhausting to watch. We make everything so much harder on ourselves. 

2) Doug has surprisingly little gravitas for a Super Bowl winning coach. Look no further than than Groh and Walch.

Yup. We are spinning our wheels at 9-7 winning a bad division and sneaking into the playoffs thanks to cousins. This team isn’t good enough to win and not bad enough to bottom out to get good draft picks.

If Metcalf retired with a neck injury tonight, I'd still trade JJAW for him on Monday.

I was banging the drum for DK since he played against California a few years back while he was at Ole Miss. he only caught 3 passes but had 2 TDs and he was the fastest player on the field with that size and frame. 

One thing was alarmingly clear about Wentz today: his footwork was allll over the place.

Yeah it was bad. In the GDT i mentioned the same thing. It was arguably the worse I’ve seen since his rookie season. He had a pass over the middle to sanders where he threw completely flatfooted. His pass to desean bear the line of scrimmage his footwork was awful.

Watch a replay of the first pick, the pass intended for JJAW in the endzone. He almost falls over because of how awkward his feet were.

As opposed to the super bowl year when everything was smooth sailing? 

I'd dump as many contracts and pick up as many picks as posible. 

See what they have in Hurts.

Go for a top two pick and trade back for even more picks. 

Hope Chicago cuts Foles. Trade Wentz for more picks.

Use the salary cap space to build the lines and fill holes in other spots as much as possible. Use some of the picks to trade for others to fill in some gaps. 

Use the draft to finish building the lines with the high picks.

Also kind of throws back to the other side of the hash too. It was a horrible decision. 

I don't mind the decision to throw it actually. He just needs to get his feet under him and throw a better ball. Get it out earlier and lead JJAW away from the DB so only he can make a play. The ball he threw was really poorly thrown.

I do cause i didn’t think JJAW was open. I also have to watch the all 22 but i don’t think JJAW ran a particularly good route in the tv Angle. the safety was there to make a play with how JJAW ran his route if the corner was Not able to make the play.

To me on first down and you are moving the ball well and with momentum no need to force a perfect throw. I actually think he could’ve easily ran the ball and picked up some nice yardage.

Dline could look better under a new DC with a more creative scheme. Honeslty depends on where we pick and BPA. Im not reaching for any position. Take the best player o matter what position. With the draft this year going to be so tough, I wouldnt mind trading away some picks to move up for that special player

Maybe it could... But Cox is over 30. Graham is possibly in his last year. Jackson is approaching 30. Curry is in the latter years of his career. And I'm not sure Barnett is good enough. If he takes a reasonable contract then sure keep him as the #2 but they need a better #1 opposite him.

Meanwhile it’s gotta be one of the most expensive in the league. Schwartz is done in my eyes. 

Yeah it is and that's a problem. It's one of the most expensive but not one of the best. But that's an issue across the roster. Way over the cap next year yet a bottom half of the league roster.

Not Eagles related and it's probably been talked about, but... Barkley's season is over and he scrubbed his social media of all things giants... hhmmmmm

Just as crazy jaguars offense is averaging 28.5 ppg. That’s the fifth highest in the nfl. And same as the chiefs.

I wonder why he'd do that? Like he's there for another year or so at least under his rookie contract isn't he?

Good luck convincing me or anyone else we aren't a b9ttem 5 team this year.

Absolutely putrid.

 

Only reason I really don't care is I think every major sports team who wins their title will have an 😷 for the asterisk by it.

If the Eagles do finish in the top five or top 10 I’m curious to see what direction they go with that pick. Like if Chase is available at their pick he is a big-time wide receiver. However I think they need more help on offensive line and defensive line particularly defensive end. Could also use help at corner.
