I just don't see it. I know all the reports are now going that way but I would be shocked. He's not the third best QB in this draft, not by a long way.

He doesn't need to be the 3rd best QB, he just needs to be the QB that SanFran wants, and they basically told you he's that by answering the pro-day question.

It could all be a bluff. I mean if they take Mac Jones after giving up what they gave up? I'll be a very happy man but it'll be a bad move for them.

Bluff for what purpose? The first 2 picks are locked in, Jags are taking Lawrence, Jets are taking Wilson. They have no reason to lie or hide anymore.

Do we know that? We absolutely know that the Jets are taking Wilson? I'm not so sure. Fields is the second best QB in this draft.

Good chance the team will draft a WR pretty high, and 1-2 more in latter rounds.  That will provide a lot of competition to the WRs already on the roster.  Good bet that some of the names will get bumped off the roster.

 

I'd say at least 1 WR will be drafted maybe 2.

Eagles fans are obsessed with WR as much as they are with big RBs 

While having good receivers is essential to winning in a passing league one can only dump so many resources Into one position before it becomes detrimental to roster building ask the Lions.

The back 7 of the defense sucks donkey balls, the front 4 is expensive and old.

While it would be nice to have 6 competent receivers or even 1 i think eagles need to be prudent with how they address WR.

Bluffing what and who?

Jets are taking Wilson, they are in the same position as SanFran, the 1st pick is locked in so they have no reason to play games with the #2 pick. Heck Howie moved down in the draft because he realized he had no shot at trading up for Wilson.

Apparently Darnold can be had for only a 3rd, any interest?

I mean he is only 23, who knows maybe Siri can fix him.

One year to extension and fifth year option.  No thanks. 

After seeing that list of draft picks and how all except DMac and Carson were lineman has me now convinced that Kwitty Paye is the pick at 12.  He checks off all the Howie boxes.  

Senior

Team captain

He'll be 23 so he's "mature"

If Howie still has final say, this is his guy.  It's not what I want but I'm preparing myself to hear his name when pick 12 is announced.

Orlovsky agrees with what?  

Jones/Ryan comp

There is a map:

1. Lawrence  2.  Wilson  3.  Jones/Lance/Fields  4.  Parsons  5.  Sewell  6.  Waddle  7.  Smith  8.  Lance/Jones/Fields  9.  Lance/Jones/Fields  10.  Surtain  11.  Paye/Rousseau

 

Basically, it requires 5 QB in the top 9 picks as is speculated currently, Parsons as best defensive prospect going top 10 (or even Slater), and neither the Turds or Giants grabbing him.  Turds don’t need another pass catcher, and Giants need OL/DE help.

Edit — that map would also leave Chase on the board (quite unlikely), but even better 

 

Lawrence, Wilson, Jones top 3 

Good chance ATL takes Lawrence/Fields If that happens someone trades into the top 10 for the other. If ATL doesn't take one then probably last until Caroline at 8. Still a chance someone gets nervous with only one top QB left and makes a move up before the Eagles. You left Slater off the board who I think goes with Sewell in the top 10 as well.

Pitts will slide when he runs like a TE at his pro day.  

Wasn't that last week and didn't he run a 4.39?

It is kinda ridiculous they boost it to 17 games a year they don’t really raise the cap but that’s funny.

Don't think ATL takes a QB, Ryan's cap hit for the next 2 years is brutal and he is still relatively young-ish. CAR will definitely snatch Fields, Lance could fall.....

Slow and not agile. Bad advise from his prospective agent to skip this year to prepare for the draft with a year of film. Looking like he spent the period eating and not running. Second day pick if he is lucky.

Goes to show smart people don't care when a TE runs a 40

It’ll range between 2 seconds and 2 minutes depending on who loves and hates him.

Stupid way to word it.  Howie’s ability to trade for draft capital may be his only strong point.

That was before. They changed philosophy last year.

I still take Rousseau  15 and back

Calm down, take a breath, count to ten ....,

Kwity Paye.  Did his parents have this mental association in mind when they named him?

I'll get my coat.

Championship!
