I appreciate everything that Ertz has done for this team, but if getting rid of him means getting rid of the 12 personnel packages and getting more receivers on the field, I'm for it. Goedert is athletic enough to be good in more 11 personnel style stuff. That has to be taken out of the offense. It's not the main reason why the offense has struggled the past two seasons, but they need a schematic change to help open things up more. 

It'll be interesting to see what they get for Ertz. I'm thinking a 4th rd

He was the worst pick of the draft.  Horrible use of a 3rd round pick.  He had one highlight where he took a good angle on Lamar Jackson.  He still has no idea how to play linebacker but he's fast! That was the theme of last year, get fast guys.  

I hated the pick and he did nothing to prove me wrong.

Is he fast enough to play safety?

Probably best case scenario given how he played this year

Are you sure? thought it was closer to the last week of the regular season

One year he gave it in March (2015).  So, I guess it all just depends on when he wants to do it. In 2010, he held it in August.

He's going to get released not traded.  

Hot Take: Maybe Ertz was crying because he realized he Fed up when he didn't take the extension that was offered.

I can't see that happening

I've read a couple of of scouting reports on Pitts that says he might be not only the best TE in the draft but the best WR in the draft.   Thoughts?

I don’t think you know what article I’m referring to. It was about Howie. Not the tanking.

They just did that last season with Jenkins.  I'm not sure why you think Ertz would be any different.  Also, if he's released he has more freedom to pick where he wants to play.

He doesn't look like a TE.  He looks like a bigger WR. I'm not sure he would be a great blocker as a TE.

Cap hit is the same either way.  Other teams know that and will play the waiting game.

There is one insider that said about the "holding back".  The same insider who has had a very public and contentious relationship with the Eagles.  Again, being "held back" would suggest it was physical.  I can guarantee, that didn't happen.  Or there would be a video record of it.  You're the exact kind of mark that McLane is paid to fool.  

I said all I needed to say to him, with my response.  

I believe the term to use here is rube.

Maybe he had tabasco on his fingers and rubbed his eye

Wow, someone on the eagles beat who isn't acting like a blithering idiot over this molehill

I've mentioned this in here a couple of times, but my buddy is a scout for a team in the league and I asked him for his opinion on Taylor and he said that he didn't even have him on his team's board going into the last draft. He scouted him a lot at Colorado since he handles most of the west coast schools. He's a project at best, not a lot of experience since he didn't play high school football due to religious beliefs. Athleticism is there, but instincts aren't.

Jenkins was older. Ertz has some productive years left in him. I believe he has value unlike Jenkins. Anything can happen and I wouldn't be surprised after how this season played out. I still think they trade him

This is why I said on Saturday they should just play Nate Sudfeld from the start and use the excuse you didn’t want to get Jalen hurts or Carson Wentz injured in a meaningless game and where that injury bleeds into the 2021 season. Nobody would’ve said much of anything if that’s the route you would’ve went. And you could’ve given Nate Sudfeld some tape to put out there this off-season and use the excuse you wanted to evaluate him

Ah. I didn't know this

Since Alshon is likely finally gone I think back trying to figure out what went wrong

There was an outpour of support after the Saints game. I remember hearing about the kids from a school writing letters to him of support saying it was ok and they still support him. Then when he actually went to the school I thought that was really cool. There was an outpour of support on social media telling him it was ok. We didn't expect a run so a lot of us were ok with the outcome.

What happened?

I had an Arizona coach that told me they really like him but it was going to take at least 2 to 3 years to get him to the point of where he was confident enough to be a major contributor. He like the athleticism but said it was a major project that would take time to get him there. Thought he could get there though.
