I do like Pitts, but don't overthink it. Chase is just what the Eagles need. A stud WR that solidifies the position. Just grab him if you want to stay at 6 and he's there. Eagles like to think they are the smartest in the room and give each other high fives. We all saw how Lurie gives a high five as well. I am in the boat of trading down to take a defensive player or OL. Anywhere between 8-15, trading back twice if it presents itself. To the 7-10 range then to agin to the 13-16 range. 8 hours ago, LeanMeanGM said: Meh.

Saltpeter Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 Frank is such a damn moron. Nine months from now he's gonna be calling half the fan base idiots for doubting Reagor. "1. It’s too early to call Jalen Reagor a bust, but nobody would be surprised if the Eagles draft a WR at No. 6 and if Travis Fulgham and the rookie wind up starting."

RememberTheKoy Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 8 hours ago, Alphagrand said: Parcells was always an overrated blowhard; he had opinions on QBs, but no track record at all of selecting or developing any great QBs. He inherited Simms with the Giants, brought in Testaverde with the Jets (as well as future stops), and inherited Romo in DAL. Drafted Chad Henne in MIA and he became a career backup. His formula is becoming obsolete with the vast majority of first round QBs declaring after their junior seasons. He didn't inherit Romo. They signed him as a rookie free agent in Parcells first year. 12 minutes ago, EaglePhan1986 said: Reagor is Agholor.

Also unlike Agholor, Reagor actually flashed at times as a rookie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I enjoy watching him destroy angles after the catch on those shallow crossers. Might be a nice fit in Sirianni's offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thrive Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 Btw Jason Avant’s new podcast is incredible. At least these first 2 episodes. Confirms a lot of what we thought about the team (especially because he was at the Novacare last year) but also probably more positive than I would have expected. He is nice about it but you get the sense he wants to say that the Eagles coaching staff/front office is an absolute dumpster fire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lurie and Howie are to dumb to use a smokescreen. You give them too much credit. Further more, it is definitely Lurie’s style to go all in on supporting Hurts. Especially after the Wentz debacle and the "qb factory” BS. It’s just dumb to announce it now. Maybe he learned his lesson, didn’t want Hurts demanding a trade.

Are you in the meth business? Moonshine? And my aunt and uncle live in the apartment above the Kwik-E-Mart, not in my house. They work for me. There's a guy Mike31mt in CVON who is loud and proud WV. He fits the stereotype exquisitely. I think it depends on what part of W. Virginia. The eastern part around Martinsburg isn't far from Hagerstown and Frederick MD. but far enough from the NOVA mess. I imagine if one were an outdoorsy type like our departed QB W. Virginia might be like the song says "Almost heaven, West Virgina". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cochis_Calhoun Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 Jaylen Waddle will be this years Henry Ruggs, people will talk his speed up the draft board and then he'll turn out not to be so great when he isn't in a college offense that's got a huge talent advantage over pretty much everyone they play.

Agholor had nice agility and always ran good routes, but his deep speed was actually lacking, especially for a lightweight finesse WR. He also showed confidence issues and an inability to track a deep ball almost immediately. Reagor showed great deep speed on college film, then ran a slow 40 with bad agility drills, and looked fairly sluggish as a rookie with poor routes. Not sure if he can or cannot track since he was only open and targeted on a deep ball once all year, but he did bring it in. I think the only real similarity is that they both had bad rookie years.

Did Ruggs 'game breaking speed' and route running amount to anything close to justifying his selection as WR1 in last years draft? Plus I haven't said anything about Reagor in this thread, I think Reagor is the worst pick Howie made last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Utebird Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 3 hours ago, Cochis_Calhoun said: I get what you're saying but it's notable that Diggs or Thielen never went for 1400 yards in Minnie when defenses were focussing on everyone else, Thielen was pacing for about 700 yards the year before Jefferson arrived. I agree on Chase in so far as I wouldn't take a guy who hasn't played a snap of football in over a year at 6 either, regardless of what he did the year before that. Thielen had 1373 yards in 2018 Calvin cook rushed for just over 600 yards that year As opposed to rushing for over 1500 last season. Like I said he was in a favorable situation with a qb known to rack up yards a veteran pro bowl receiver opposite him and a really good running game. Having said that the guy played light out will be interesting to see if he can keep it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is nice about it but you get the sense he wants to say that the Eagles coaching staff/front office is an absolute dumpster fire. Agreed. Some highlights for me: -- Avant seems to really like Reagor. Compared him to Jeremy Maclin coming out of the Big 12 and adjusting to not getting free releases and running by people at will. Thinks Reagor "has that dog in him" and "hates" the constant talk about Justin Jefferson (was framed as a positive that it will motivate him to get better, not as him being bitter). Thinks he'll wind up being a really good player and having continuity at WR coach will help him. -- Praised John Hightower's routes and game speed, going as far as saying he was the team's best route runner. His major, and probably fatal, flaw -- he's scared to get hit. -- Praised Darius Slay for making Quez Watkins a better player. Said Quez couldn't do anything against Slay early on when he was on the scout team and that Slay wouldn't let up on him. "Night and day" difference in Quez's skill level from beginning of the year to the end. -- Confirmed Fulgham had issues mentally dealing with Alshon taking his snaps. Likes Fulgham's movement ability for his size and his aggressiveness as a blocker, but he needs to mature. Pod is really a must listen and both guys are actually likeable.

bpac55 Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 5 minutes ago, 4for4EaglesNest said: It's pretty stupid to compare Ruggs to Waddle and assume Waddle would be a bust because of another players first year, where he missed games in a pandemic year with no mini camp or preseason games in a new stadium that looks like a spaceship in a city with legalized gambling. It's also a totally lazy comparison. Anyone who watches Bama games can see that Waddle has all kinds of juice to his game, not just straight speed. Ruggs has jets but doesn't nearly have the wiggle ane elusiveness that Waddle has. Not even close to be the same player. i think Waddle will end up being the better pro. I can easily convince myself to trade down a few slots and take him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
