Gainwell in RD5? YES PLEASE. BPA. Has a clear path to playing time. 

Our Naheim Hines.

Should be a nice role player.

Good pick. Not a big guy, so we still don't have a short yardage back.   I was about to post about him being a great value at this spot.  Didn't get it up in time.   Great name for a runner.   

Wouldn't Jordan Howard be considered a short yardage back?

Some folks should really think about what they are about to tweet before they tweet it.  There's so much wrong in that tweet that I don't have the time nor the energy to dissect it.  

 

 

Surely not a single person can hate this pick?

Edit: of course they can and will.

I think that's Howard.  This kid has enough size to be a threat in the gaps, but runs routes like a WR.  This is the kinda back I see the Eagles deploying in this WCO.  I'm sure they stressed his catch radius to the owner to make it more palatable.

Is he signed?   I forgot about him.  He came back in the mid-season, but they barely used him.  Was he even active for more than 1 game?    Is he cooked?

Boston Scott?

He resigned like a month ago

Probably the second best pass catcher RB in the draft 

It’s a decent pick.  He’s going to compete for a spot and be a potential contributor.  

So with picks 123 and 150 so far today, Eagles have selected Jeremiah's 78th and 85th ranked players.  They got Brugler's 68th and 122nd.

They absolutely stole Gainwell, amazing pick in round 5.

I forgot about him.  But, I would like to upgrade that.  How much is left in his tank?

Other than Dickerson, I'm on board with all these picks.

Yes. Many did. True. Dunno. No.

Agreed.  And I am leading the "Fire Howie!" movement.

Gainwell is such a perfect mix of fit, value and playing the board perfectly.

Very concise and efficient use of language.

Not so sure about that.  Huntley and Killins maybe.

Raven/Steeler-esque. 

Just stay where you are and draft the good player that falls to you.
