    I turned 38 today and have lost 52lbs since February. I’m very rarely ever proud of myself, but I’m feeling pretty proud today and thought I’d share. Carry on.

  • At this point, I’d like to see a former HC on the staff, but the biggest coaching news left is whether Stout stays.  BOOOOOOOOM

1 ACL sure... 2 ACLs... maybe.  2 ACLs and 1 ankle... ice is getting thinner.   2 ACLs and 2 ankles, you are literally out of legs to stand on.

He played post injury at a high level. It’s just more of a risk than Humphrey.

No, I'm arguing that there's a time and place to take risk on really talented players with massive medical red flags... and that starts in Round 3, not Round 2.  In Round 2, you take talent without the questions.

Interior OL is not a premiere position of need in the NFL, so we can remove that argument from consideration.  It never has been, and it still isn't.  This wasn't an OT, CB, QB, or DE.  Interior OL are not 'premiere' positions.  Going for a player like Samuel at a premier position, without the injury concern isn't exactly 'conservative', its smart.

There's no round cut off for evaluating risk/reward ratio. It's a myth.  The Titans took a guy with 2 back surgeries in the first this year. 

And yes a center is a premiere position. Kelce has been a massive part of our offense for years. But yeah let's take an undersized corner instead. Never seen the downside of that nice as an Eagles fan. I like Samuel but that's a silly example.

Well it is. Now I know Vikings took a QB before it's announced.

We moved to 73...

Help me out here... which injury are you referring to?

There is a lot of scar tissue among the fanbase due to the Sydney Jones pick, so the fear of that happening again is overwhelming. The people who don't have that trauma, such as the evaluators and analysts that have been referenced, can see this pick is well worth the risk. I do get why this is bothering some people, that Sydney pick was traumatizing.

I agree.  And I don't blame anyone for being concerned with the pick...especially when most fans wanted a CB or LB there.  If we weren't looking for a CB or LB at 37, the reaction would likely have been better, imo.

Graziano of espn , reported the other day people around league said Bucs love Trask and did their homework on him , I guess he had legit sources . He will sit and watch Brady for 2 years

Makes sense, I think most they were hoping for at 70 are gone.  Didn’t break well.

Almost always in favour of a trade down.

Telling you Eagles wanted trask, now they are to rethink who to take since they never have a plan B
