Not that he isn’t a good player, but linebacker simply isn’t that valuable. Right LB isn’t valuable. WRs though they are SO valuable. Go back and compare in the last 10 years how many LBs were drafted top 10 and how many WRs were drafted top 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with you. Parsons can single handedly transform this D. Chase or Smith or Pitts is not going to do that to the O. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoconoDon Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 Now that the Eagles have their shiny new LB'er in Avery, they clearly don't have any pressing need to draft a LB'er this April. Way to go Howie!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This position for the Eagles has been neglected far too long. Believe it or not, I'm not at all impressed with Parsons because he's not a hitter, he's a a grab the upper body and sling him to the ground.....DO NOT WANT!!!

dawkins4prez Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 I'm sorry but there is a LOT of value in picking an elite 3-down LB who will wear the green sticker and make the calls for your D for the next 8 years. If the new regime thinks this guy is their Darius Leonard I'm all for the pick. This is not like taking a RB top 10, a Lb is worth the 2nd contract.

Waiting4Someday Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 I remember being surprised when the Vikings took A.Barr in the top-10 and played him at LB. Now, I think they paid a premium because most of the world saw him as a DE - but I'd think you can make a solid argument that Parsons is a better fit (and might get discounted because he's identified as a LB). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NOTW Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 Lurie wants to build around Hurts, so they will take a weapon for him in either Chase, Smith or Pitts. Perhaps Sewell if he falls. They will want a shiny new toy for the QB to grow with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freedom 76 Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 After the Lbs below average play in 2020, Micah Parsons would be worth the 12 th pick. The current Eagle Lbs couldn't tie his shoulder pad laces. He is the heavy hitter against the run they don't have. Penn States Lbs have played well in the NFL. Matt Millen a POOR GM but a good Lb is just one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

homerpat Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 now that we are at 12, really hoping we get a shot at Parsons. Will never happen as we only draft late round LBs, but he would change the defense 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nipples Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 WR sucks. CB sucks. Defensive line is old and average. All much more important position groups than linebacker. I like Parsons as a player, but no way I’d take him at 12. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freedom 76 Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 The 2020 LBS couldn't catch Jeff Lurie if he was in a wheel chair. That crew was rough on the eyes watching them. The Eagles are against the wall with the cap and not much to offer in a dtaft choice trade .Hopefully a different type of defense will help the D Line untill it can be rebuilt.

Cheesteakitis Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 Would think Parsons goes before 12 maybe but I would like the pick if they took him. Doubt it happens but it wouldn’t offend me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, guys like Luke Kuechly are defense defining, game changers. If you think Parsons is at that elite level, it would not be out of bounds to spend high draft capital on him. However, the value of the LB is still less than other positions. If it comes down to picking a pro-bowl LB or a pro-bowl corner... there are plenty of starting caliber linebackers to be had in the 2nd round Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hukdonfoniks Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 If we leave the 1st round with Parsons and a 1 next year, it'd be a massively huge win. Parsons is a beast and we need someone young to build the defense around. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
