Love that trade’ man! But...we will never, ever get that from Ballard and the Colts. If it’s going to be Wentz and Ertz to Indy, the return will be something like their first this year and maybe a 3rd in 2022. Anything more than that and I’d be stunned.

As for the draft;

Don’t get me wrong, I like the players you took but do you even know the tendencies of this team?! A LB in the first even with a top 10 pick?! Never say never but chances of that happening are slim to none. They just don’t value the position that high (> 30 yrs ago they took a LB in the first).

Farley won’t last that long.

Waiting to address both the WR and S position that late is a mistake IMO unless  the Eagles someway somehow address it in FA.

A few issues (not counting the fact that I think that trade is bananas, but let's say it happens for the sake of argument here):

1. No way do I see us going Parsons R1 at 6.

2. Farley isn't dropping to 21.

3. I don't see a TE in R1 or R2 unless it's Pitts.

4. No way Werner lasts to R5.

5. We don't need a Pooka, we need a Rhamondre Stephenson or Rakeem Boyd.

I would be ecstatic with that trade. 

If we get Ya-Sin and still have Slay, why do we need 2 corners?

I think pick 6 (if we keep it) will definitely be a WR. If we trade down it will still be a WR (Bateman)

Let's resign Jordan Howard, sign an undrafted free agent, and move on from Boston Scott.

Nobody has screamed about Safety for longer than me.  WR though?  Time to be a bit controversial.  Eagles need to see what they really have with coaching, scheme change & camp before they go overboard.  Ex:  I think Reagor, Goodwin & Ward cover slot well enough.  The younger receivers have the speed to stretch the field.  Torrey Smith's main value in '17 was opening up the underneath stuff that Siri wants to make a main staple of his attack.  If they have a need there, it is at X.  Fulgham flashed-but we don't know if Moorehead & Co. can get inside his head enough to improve his work ethic.  The talent is there.

J-JAW is of primary concern.  If you're going to address anything, address replacing him.  As long as that remains in focus, the idea of taking Pitts at #6 is one I'm warming up to.  Covers TE-2, and can even play slot/X situationally.  More bang for buck theory.   Otherwise; C/RG & another back with explosion capable of moving sticks are what I'd want to see in this draft O-side.

Who knows?  Maybe they'll even get around to addressing the back 7..............
