Any plan for rebuilding the Eagles that includes taking an off ball linebacker with maturity issues is a really bad one. 

Is that who Parsons is?

    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

Honestly hiring Riley would not excite me one bit.  I have my doubts about him as an NFL coach.

On another note.....wtf does Doug Gottlieb know about what Riley's favorites are?

He went to Oklahoma State so maybe he has some local connections is the only way i can see it

Round 1 Pick 4 (ATL): Trevor Lawrence, QB, Clemson (A)
Round 3 Pick 8 (DET): Derion Kendrick, CB, Clemson (A+)
Round 4 Pick 13 (LAC): Seth Williams, WR, Auburn (A+)
Round 5 Pick 6: Ben Cleveland, C/OG, Georgia (A+)
Round 5 Pick 12: DeAngelo Malone, DE/OLB, Western Kentucky (A+)
Round 5 Pick 15 (LAC): Anthony Hines, ILB/OLB, Texas A&M (A+)
Round 6 Pick 5: Darius Stills, DT, West Virginia (A+)
Round 6 Pick 35 (COMP): Erroll Thompson, ILB/OLB, Mississippi State (A+)
Round 6 Pick 39 (COMP): Greg Eisworth, FS/SS, Iowa State (A+)
Round 7 Pick 6: Braydon Johnson, WR, Oklahoma State (A+)

If we fired Doug for a fing Bowles, I’m done

Caplan and Mosher killed Lurie in their ITB pod today.

Please summarize. Thanks.

I agree.  Just from a process standpoint and due diligence, though, you’d think they would set something up and speak with him.

I think the Chip Kelly experience has damaged Lurie for quite some time. Doug coaching wise may not have worked out (obviously) but Doug did immediately come in here and fix the culture that needed to be addressed.

 I don’t know anything about Bienemy, but he has the best QB in the league and weapons for him. I could be the Chiefs OC

That's the exact reason I have no interest in him.  Hard pass.

Sorry if already posted, but not a ringing endorsement for Hurts

 

Coaching Baker? What has Baker done for Riley? They didn't win a championship together. Lost the Rose Bowl. 

Baker Mayfield would be a better experience rather than Jalen Hurts? At the collegiate level?

If Day is the pick he better bring Brian Hartline with him

Can we bring Brian Hartline without bringing Ryan Day?

Caplan said he's lived in Philly a long time. The fans and media are smart. They won't buy a bunch of BS. He said to go into that press conference and make excuse after excuse like guys got taken a few spots ahead of the Eagles in drafts is BS. He said take the next best guy. Or stop trading away picks so you can move up if you need to. Or draft more good players. It's no excuse.

Then they both said they know guys around the league who work for the best drafting teams who all have a rule. Once your organization sets your draft board it doesn't change. You stick to the board. If the guys you like are gone, you take the next best guy.

He said the Eagles use analytics too much instead of tape, because Lurie always is pushing analytics, and he said the Eagles sometimes go way off the board and make surprise picks. That their process is flawed. Mosher said he knows from several sources many people in the personnel department were totally blindsided by the Hurts pick. That Howie went way off the board when he made that pick.

He said teams like the Ravens and Steelers always do well in the draft because they stick to their board 100% and have long sometimes heated debates over personnel and they welcome it leading up to the draft, but once they all agree on a consensus they stick to the board and the Eagles don't.

I don't even get the statement here.   

Ok, Dallas wanted him, he turned them down.   Where does 'coaching Baker' fit into that?

Is that the same Brian Hartline that was on the Dolphins?

This supports what many of us have suspected.

Lol it has been said so much but because you've been stuck on trading Wentz I guess you ignored it

Hey I'm still stuck on that...

Probably.

Don't get me wrong Doug should always get credit for the SB win, but 2017 was more then Doug Pederson. I'm not taking anything away from Doug and yes he is a SB winning coach.....but there's more to superbowl win then just Doug Pederson himself.

The Howie "I have secret knowledge and insight plan" that results in a fireman who was "hockey tough," a DE with stats but no body, a slower than advertised WR who doesn't catch well, etc. I bet they stick with their board after the top rounds and that's why the Eagles do somewhat better there and then the annual "we kill it with UDFAs" probably because this is when the scouts bet to make decision. Pathetic.

Yep. 

TY, not the kind of player to build around.

Mosher said two teams told him Davion Taylor was undraftable.

Between Mosher and Caplan they didn't find a single team they've talked to who had him graded higher than a 5th rounder and that was only one team. All the others had him as a 6th round grade, and two teams undraftable.

I believe he was also the top DE recruit coming out of high school.  PSU switched him to MLB

When I saw this picture of Robert Saleh, ‘hard-nosed’ came to mind LOL
