It’s being reported we have fewer than 15 players with first round grades.

Yes there will be 49 players in round 2 🤣

Exactly, guy is a super talented top pick that’s low on the intangibles.

Aaron Hernandez was a super talented guy you would have loved drafting also No Mas. What could go wrong?

Brady has no tag clause in extension. Hello Phins next season.

We could draft a guy without the basic talent to play the most important position....simply because the goal of the entire 2020 draft was speed.    Not basic talent for the position to be played.  You pass on the WR that went afterwards and the safety in round 2 where you took the gimmick QB.... because " we needed to get faster " Big  Dom approved of the guys though.

Hmmmm. Is Ben Simmons low on intangibles...... or could his main issue be that he lacks a certain basic skill.... say....SHOOTING?     Similar to a QB lacking the ability to throw the ball at an NFL level?  

That's been my point... without the basic skill set to play a certain position ( which i consider the talent) .... the " athleticism" means nothing.   Simmons not so much  super talented basketball player...he is an outstanding athlete.  Running,  jumping etc.    Hurts... he can run and cut and break tackles...  great for a RB... but the QB needs to have the talent to read a defense and throw the ball.   If he can't do that, then it doesn't matter how fast he runs or how much his teammates like him.

It's important to have "good losers" LOL

 

 

 

Seger and Petty, it doesn't get much better than that!

Also Mike Campbell is one of the great guitarists, so understated yet absolutely top class.

That gimmick QB beat out your big armed favorite QB

He won’t show up and play because he lacks shooting? Or he just isn’t in it for the right reasons? Think if the guy had the intangibles he’d actually improve his shooting. All his skill and athleticism dues nothing when he just won’t even suit up or put in effort though.

How do you throw for over 300 yards several times without the ability to throw? This is in the NFL…not Pop Warner.

Watched Cam Newton take his team to the SB. Lesser passer than Hurts.

OK, so here is my Eagles Mock. You will see that it will be different from almost everyone else, which is fine by me. I also do not think it will be close lol

15 - Wyatt- DT

18 - Dean - LB

51 - McCreary CB

83 - Cook - S

101 - Robinson Edge

124 - Phillips - WR

154 - Jobe - CB

162 - Ezeudu G

166 -  Allegeier - RB

237 - Hawkins - S

OK, Now you all can laugh. I want Defense and these re all possible should we stand put. However, I feel we will trade up for either a DT, DE, CB or Safety. Hoping HR does not screw this up.

Nobody said 32 picks won’t be made in the first round. It’s more about who is forced to overpay. Getting proper value. If pick 22 players compare to pick 52 players….wouldn’t you want to trade back? All about evaluating each draft and figuring out where the sweet spots are to maximize and position yourself ideally.

To clarify: this is what you’d do, right? Not what you predict Rosie will do.

I like the mock though. We could do much worse. Throw in Punt God and I’m in.

Wyatt is a heck of a player. Dean is a stud LB. McCreary is a very underrated scrappy Corner. Cook has been overlooked maybe because of his Secondary teammates. I think he’s a good one.

Robinson is a guy I haven’t heard mentioned much at all. The guy has big time potential.

Welp, sorry, but 32 guys will have a round 1 grade LOL

I see UP from 15 and BACK from 18. GB is actually a possible trade partner
