Not talked about, Kelce is breaking down...he's played through some injuries the past 3 seasons.  He can't keep doing that forever.  I'm now officially 100% kinda ok with this pick.

So he's a good center if he just stays healthy?

No. Just that I doubt if Lowie were going to over rule the scouts, it would be for a center!

Yeah.  And I liked him.  But man can we draft defensive players. Maybe?

Medical nightmare is fun to read with our medical staff.

Wow okay so let’s assume that will always be the case!

You're acting like there is no reason to not like this pick when they just made this same mistake 2 years ago. Yea, forgive me for not believing this team will get lucky with someone coming off injury. Past 5 years have been great for us in that regard

Some of you have injury PTSD. This was a solid pick. If it doesn’t do it for you then realize that we need a center (most likely next year), we need a solid C from a great program, and we have a multiple year rebuild happening.

Sure.   And Humphrey was the top rated C, and still on the board, without the injury concern.  🤔    

I'm always keen to draft OL. And we need all 3 interior OL positions. Injury prone OL scares me but it sounds like he's a stud when healthy. Feels like a trade down would've been better but the speed we turned that card in, clearly they absolutely love the guy.

This.

Just from a strategic perspective, we DON’T need immediate starters. We aren’t one or two players from winning the super bowl. We need long term blue chip talent. We’ll see if this kid can stay healthy. If so, should be a good pick.

Blue Chip talent finds its way on the field. Not hating the player. But our first 3-4 players need to be on the field in the rebuild.

I’m not going to put any stock into a team who watched their rookie 1st overall QB get destroyed by DL on a weekly basis, resulting in a season ending injury, only to pass on Sewell and draft a WR, and then again pass on all available OL & trade down.

If you want an o-lineman fine, take one who is HEALTHY that can help you now. He joins the rest of our oft injured o-line. Yippee

Ok. And we need a linebacker, S, CB (multiple even) right now and those positions had quality players available who are healthy. Typical Eagles FO thinking they are smartest in the room

I get that but we can’t fill ever hole in this draft. Who knows what C looks Iike next years draft.

Now if we don’t get a CB at 70 I’ll be worried but still.

What Twitter page am I looking for to see the picks?  Thanks

This guy has Sidney Jones written all over him.

Well there are 32 other teams who didn’t get the memo. Including all the teams who actually drafted Safties so far. 

I think you got it backwards. All the websites didnt get the memo.

Meh, I'm not going to argue he's not a gvood center, his injuries would have scared me away and having said that I'm not a fan of drafting Centers that high.

Kelce was a 3rd day pick, before him jamal jackson was undrafted, before him Hank Fraley was a late rounder cut by steelers picked up off the scrap heap and before him Bubba Miller before him was undrafted.

I don't think one really needs to spend high picks on centers especially ones with multiple serious Injuries.

When was the last time Howie was sent for a random?

Correct.  Not a terrible pick, but an unnecessary risk with a premium pick.

Let's be serious.  When was the last time the starting interior O-Line started anywhere near 16 games together for this team?  The odds are he will likely see the field this year.  Just sayin', 

He's still recovering from a torn ACL.  This isn't a running back rehabbing a torn ACL, it's a 6-6 330+ pound guy.  He'll be starting the year on PUP. 

So many impact players are sitting there.

At the very least they could have traded back

Strong statement from Baldy.  He was the one guy who stated Mailata was going to be a player TWO years before anyone else.

This guy is already broken down though and didn't even get to the NFL yet. Extensive serious injury history

Tomato tomoto bottom line is Moerig is sliding and teams are taking other Safties so just how Unanimous is it?
