Although I like the Reagor selection, this whole draft feels like a missed opportunity. 

What could have been...

Lamp, Taylor, Wallace, Driscoll, Hightower, (Goodwin), Bradley, a Nigerian prince and Toohill...

Still pissed J. Jones on his yacht with that annoying head of his stole Lamp in front of our noses. Can’t stand it. Bittersweet...

Probably won't be though. I'm always taken back by how much they charge. 

My buddy has a good chinese knockoff site...pennies on the dollar and very little noticeable difference in quality.  Got a Kelce w/Super Bowl Patch for like $28, just took like a month to arrive.  Personally I want the silver alternate jersey of Reagor.

Are they doing a new silver alternate uni?

They did limited ones for Carson, Dawkins and Ertz I believe.

Yeah wish they did this as a new alternate over the black for a few games with the green or black pants.

 

 

Good to know Reagor is a nasty effer.

Yeah me too. I like the black uni but would be nice to change it up.

Nfl needs to change their rules on jerseys. Just make it mandatory that one team wears white on game day and the teams can have as many different colors as they want. 

I can’t take listening to sports radio in this city anymore. If I hear one more Fer on the radio call Reagor 5’9” I’m gonna kill someone. How hard is it to read a draft profile on nfl.com. They literally give you all the information. Stupid arse fans and radio hosts trying to create problems.

I hear you.  I was listening to WIP a few hours ago while driving home from getting food and this caller was talking about how Wentz has regressed, that his comp% ranking was only 24th (guess he either watched games and forgot how many passes our WRs dropped or didn't watch games and is only a 'stat' guy) and Ike questioned that.  Then the caller says Wentz is well below the league average of 70%.  Ike says he's looking at the numbers from last year and only 3 QBs hit the 70% mark (Tannenhill, Carr and Brees) so it's definitely NOT the league average.  The caller said he was sure there were more QBs who had 70% and Ike practically yells at him "I HAVE THE NUMBERS RIGHT HERE IN FRONT OF ME!".  FFS, there's either some really stupid people out there or people with a clear cut agenda that never allow facts and truth to get in their way.  I switched stations right then and there.  Why do they let these morons on the air as long as they do and don't just cut them off and go on to a caller who isn't an idiot?  I know, ratings.  Controversy makes for good entertainment.  Well, for the majority of people it does while some of us would prefer the idiots be sorted out and cut off as soon as their identified as an idiot.  #dontfeedthetrolls

 

@Green_Guinness yup. I was listening to 97.5 and the host, I think Ty, was feeding the callers wrong information. Switched to pandora. Pathetic radio we have and pathetic fans who won’t let facts get in the way of their stupidity.

Why would anyone listen to sports radio if they're not driving. Even then it's horrible radio. Rather listen to Fresh Air WHYY then most of them fools.

So the other sports station is just as bad then?  I don't listen to either much anymore.  Only certain times now.  I've listened a little bit since the draft to get some feedback on what fans and certain hosts think of the draft.  Another time I'll listen is the Fri/Sat before a game and the Mon after, but even then it's only for short bursts.  Seems there's always that one caller who is such an idiot that you have to tune away from it.

Yup, pretty much only time I listen is when driving.

I was driving and was curious to what people were saying. Safe to say TATE was making these people look stupid. 

Starting to wonder if all of the people outraged over passing on Justin Jefferson for Reagor even watch and/or understand the sport of Football.

It's horrible. That Egenolf chic from the Mikey Miss show was complaining about the Hurts pick on twitter. Fine, complain away. That said she said the Patriots never tried to be a QB factory and only used high picks on getting Brady help at WR and OL. This is the same team that drafted Jimmy G in the 2nd round and then two years later used a 3rd rounder on Jacoby Brisett.

Don't forget Ryan Mallett in the third in 2011. Reactionary talking points is all they want. 

Found this on her twitter in response to the pats don't play musical QBs post.

Totally forgot about Mallet. Someone mentioned they drafted a 3rd round QB in 2008 as well which I didnt remember at all. Low and behold they did with Kevin O'Connell from San Deigo State.

So thats four premium picks they used on QBs from 2008 - 2016. "Oddly enough" she didnt respond to any of this, though she did make some cryptic tweet later in the evening saying that twitter commentary should not be taken as seriously as doctoral thesis.

... but ... but ... but ...  MEL KIPER said he's better, therefore it's true right??

Reagor is soo frigin     FAST

"Kitna watched the first round of the draft with his family on Thursday night and they all erupted when they heard Reagor's name called. 

Now, he can't wait to see what Reagor is able to do playing with Carson Wentz in the Eagles' offense for the next four years. 

"There's no telling what he can do," Kitna said. "I know at TCU he was kind of that Z receiver on the right. We moved him all over the place. He can go in motion, he can come in the backfield. 

"When he gets the ball in his hands, he's dynamically special. When you think of a guy like Tyreek Hill, what he's done, Antonio Brown, what he's done. Those kinds of things that those guys do on a football field. He kind of has that same specialness to him." 

i absolutely cannot wait to watch this kid play. He's a F'n 🚀

I can’t wait to see how this guy plays in the nfl. I have a feeling (which means absolutely nothing since I’m neither prescient or a scout) that he’s going to end up a really special player for us. I’m thinking consistent 1000+ yard seasons and multiple TDS good. Just pray to god my hunch is right, he has all the necessary tools to make it so.

Let me be the first to say I absolutely hope you are right. I really like Reagor so I am happy with the pick BUT I also have major reservations as he's a Howie pick and Howie doesn't tend to draft well, especially at the skills positions.

He hit big on Goedert and sanders. It’s a crap shoot really. As long as you pick someone that belongs where you picked them as a prospect then luck / fate decides the rest. And I definitely think reagor is deserving of a first round pick as a prospect.
