May 1, 20214 yr https://www.profootballnetwork.com/zech-mcphearson-nfl-draft-player-profile-texas-tech-cornerback/ sounds like he is also a good special teams player with a couple blocked kicks.
May 1, 20214 yr ABC draft coverage on Zech: athleticism, good at getting turnovers, weak in coverage, plays special teams...development project, roll the dice and hope for the best. That sounds like Howie's draft strategy alright! CBS Sports profile:

Do you think howie will trade with himself To move back a spot and grab that player that they really like before taking the other one that they really like with the next pick.

Well, that sounds like fun. And everyone knows this is all about the fun and fist bumps.
May 1, 20214 yr Just now, NOTW said: Surely at this point they must realise that they aren't going to get much for him?

May 1, 20214 yr 10 minutes ago, NOTW said: They made sure Tom wasn't in the shot this time to ruin Howie's fist bump fun. He’s probably locked in Howie a old "chip era” office next to the equipment room.
May 1, 20214 yr 19 minutes ago, NOTW said: I’m not trading Ertz for less than a 4th which we can’t get now anyway. keep him - let him help Hurts and then see what you can get at trade deadline.
May 1, 20214 yr 3 minutes ago, DBW said: They should pull it but I don’t Howie would. I think he’s content with letting zach play it out here or they could move him later in the season. Another TE going down early in the season is best case scenario to get value in 2022 draft
May 1, 20214 yr Eagles could just keep him and Goedert for this year, hope that Ertz bounces back. Ertz is basically on a prove-it year to get himself a good contract with another team, and they can just get a comp pick for him which might be better than a day 3 draft pick they might get for him. As long as he's not demanding a trade they may not even want to trade him unless the return is worth it.
