BigEFly Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 If that PA mom can create deep fake videos of her child’s competition, can’t the Eagles create deep fake videos of some of their free agents to create better comp pick value? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you really hate defensive backs that much? I have always insisted that it is better to have 5 good DB's than 1 star with uneven (to be generous) surroundings. The fact that the secondary regressed on Slay's watch, despite the big investment. is a testament to this. Additionally, when a player signs a market value contract, they don't have draft value. You are investing twice when you trade picks and pay up, which is what they did for Slay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garingovt2000 Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 Any clue what Wayne Gallman is looking for? He looked solid in the games I watched last year and ran hard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eagle45 Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 In Slay, the Eagles invested/anticipated a guy who would shadow the #1 WR and reliably take him out of games. Instead, the got a guy who was simply incapable of that, but was just a very good cover CB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gettleman signed James Bradberry who's younger on a cheaper deal, didn't cost any draft picks to acquire and played better than Slay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if Howie does us right and grabs a S and a CB with two of our first two days of picks this year, coupled with Slay, there is an excellent chance we have five good DBs. And let me ask you this. If you could trade up in the third round last year for a CB of Slay’s talent, would you do it? That is what Slay cost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of those, how many are not massive injury question marks? Not a large number. What picks did the Broncos give up for Darby? No picks and less money.

As my grandfather used to say hope in one hand and s--- in the other and see which one fills up first. Howie only does Howie right... purely about self preservation and having the proper scape goats on hand. If Howie doesn't screw up #6 it won't be for lack of trying. All his roster mismanagement created this mess, and digging out of it makes the next 2 years bleak. All hail, Howie, master bean counter. 15 hours ago, eagle45 said: And would a CB of Slay's talent in round 3 cost what Slay does against the salary cap?

Khani1 Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 2 hours ago, 4for4EaglesNest said: Corey Davis is a lot better than anything we have. What WR do we have that’s average? 😂 I have always liked him. But not a fan of bringing in a WR in FA. If we did. I would be happy it be him. Well. Doesn’t matter anyway Ok, so bring in an average wide receiver who will take up 17 million to a below average group of receivers that we already have. That is even worse. We have no cap room as is it. That would be a complete waste of a resource. There are cheaper guys available in free agency who are also average and younger. We can also address the WR position in the draft. If we already had a decent core with a few good WR's and we added him, I would feel differently. That is also under the assumption we had much more cap space aka Howie wasn't our GM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
