I would have NP with Gibbs,Sermon,Gainwell and a vet addition if Sanders and Scott go away. Like it or not we still need some semblance of talent there and IDK that Gains is the guy and we haven't seen Sermon at all,so who knows

Sure. .can we draft this Gibbs late 2nd or even later?

5) Philadelphia Eagles: Myles Murphy, EDGE, Clemson

The more wins the Eagles rack up, the more shocking it is to see them drafting in the top five — thanks, New Orleans. Taking advantage of their early selection, Philly adds to an already strong defensive line by snatching Clemson’s Myles Murphy.

Murphy can move up and down the line and is already a stout run defender. Let him refine his game in the Eagles’ loaded locker room and the 6’5″, 275-pound pass rusher could reach his ceiling sooner rather than later.     Just got this in my in box. This is who I had also FWIW

He’s looking good. At this point I prefer his Dline teammate though. I’ll come back to this with my final opinion after we celebrate the season. We’ll come back to this subject.

Another high priced free agent.  That was a bust.   The success came with the committee of the lower investment guys.  I'll stick to that approach. 

So Sanders was drafted in round 2. I am simply saying Gibbs is near round 2 also.Why not repeat what we did before? Seemed to work ok?

I'm fine with either,the other guy is Bresee (and stated so)It hinges on the NO pick we get

You went on many rants labeling Hurts a Running QB. You went on several rants of how a running QB can’t win in the postseason. So that’s when you said that "it will be totally different in the playoffs when teams realize Hurts runs and focus on stopping that.” "Hurts is a running QB.” "Running QBs don’t have success in the playoffs.”

 But I’m perfectly fine with you changing your opinion now. You just let us know what version you take now. I know it’s a tough area for you…not being in hindsight and all. We’ll get your ‘real’ opinion once somebody has a parade. Then you will find some clarity on your thoughts.

Yes....running QBs have struggled in the playoffs.   I am of the opinion it will be much greater chance of losing to a SF or Tampa in the playoffs.....than not getting one seed.   How can you think we lose to Bears, Saints or Giants ..now when it matters...but be more confident winning 3 road games in the playoffs as a wildcard team?

Doesn't make sense?

Yeah maybe,too soon to make those kind of calls,but I can't just take him away yet because there are too many unknowns

Good...how about we focus on the Eagles now.  The draft after the season. Really there are so many games to watch when looking at that Saints pick.  Half the league is close enough to root for.

Dullaz has to get by US,let's not forget that and as I watched a few games from them,Dak seems to go into panic mode early. So for me that is pick city. Their O line STINKS at pass pro and not good vs the running game. That's where we win. Get Dak running for his life

Are we celebrating wildcard?    I'm baffled by your reasoning?  

You are all confident in the parade...but not so much we get the 1 seed?  

I don't get it.

Also...was I ranting when I simply explained Hurts had more rushing attempts than completions in a number of his games...he was the teams leading rusher.  Averaged the highest or close to the highest rushes per game from any QB.   

I think that qualifies as a running QB?

Dallas can beat us 50 to 0.   They still need us to lose to a scrub team and win the rest of their games.

FIne we were talking draft and thats how i responded. So subject change is fine by me

Yeah,but that would make me unhappy losing to them 

I posted where they were weak at pass pro and vulnerable to the run. Stuff their running game and chase Dak all over the backfield

Pick 63?

Or win the other 3 easy games...and get top seed. 

After they play us,it's a quick turn for Thursday vs Tenn. I think Jax will give them problems and they could easliy lose to Tenn on the quick turn. Even if by chance we lose to them(which I doubt) I want to beat them up so they lose to Tenn lol

Really...in watching the Eagles over the years... we have seen them play down to the level of the opponent. 

This year we haven't at all.   Washington game we had injuries and fluke turnovers that you don’t see regularly.   Still could have won with last minute TD.

I can't see a reason why anyone would think we lose the other 3 games outside of Dallas...and think Dallas runs the table?   

Being up a few points late in the fourth quarter to the worst team Texans. Battling to the end against Indy. Losing to Wash. Week one coming back against Detroit. Think I’m forgetting one other game this season. That’s four games that don’t support your current theory.

 We don’t have to worry about dropping from the one seed to two…three or four. Only options realistically left are one seed or wild card. Just no in between. Dallas game been the biggest most important game on the schedule the whole time. Preseason up until now. Just not going to fore go all actual results to lock us in at One. I’m clearly rooting for us every week. Not any crazy stretch for us to lose to the second best team in our conference that also happens be in division. I clearly have more respect for NFL teams in general than you. Our team was nose to nose with the four teams this season I mentioned. Not top teams. Odds are with us. But I’m not counting those chickens until they hatch. Just like how you were completely convinced two losses by the Saints would still keep us top ten pick….but then a couple weeks later point out how one loss moves that pick back to 11. So I’m fine if you can’t see a reason we ever lose… although you didn’t think we could win in the postseason. But now seem to backpedal those thoughts. We shouldn’t lose to the Bears, Saints, Wash or Giants. But one already happened. We look to be starting a S that was on the streets last week. I sure hope no more injuries happen…but I’m too realistic to be that naive. NFL….anything can happen. We just straight up can lose to Dallas. Think everybody acknowledges that possibility. But you can’t envision any scenario we lose any other game? Like Hurts gets pulled over a concussion or something messed up even like that? But you go for your supreme confidence. I’ll carry my concerns until after we beat Dallas. We do that then it’s done…not before in my view.

Depends how much quality you want at RB,you can wait until late 2. I thought we changed the subject?? Gibbs is a nice RB,the late 2 guys aren't nearly as talented,so whatever you want,but no sense getting a less talented RB for 4 years when you can have a decent one . BTW there are a few nice DB's in round 2 we can add

Yeah if the pick falls,no worries. if we miss Murphy they(both are from Clemson) also have a nice DT in Bresee who should go around 9/10 somewhere. So really we can't lose here IMO. Murph is the movable DE and Bresee is a DT

 Have the two players switched as our difference in opinion. Pretty nit picky small difference. Think it’s more we both really like both Clemson Dline.

See no reason we can't run the table from here on out

It's just that edge is usually more sought after than DT,so that would be the difference. Like I said either would be a nice addition

Texans aren't as bad as their record. They have hung in many games. it took all Dullaz had to come back for that win

One thing's for sure, several of our coaches are being looked at

Why we need to win the SB LOL

Yes...we differ.  I like to address specific issues directly.  One at a time.

I like the QB sneak play because it is simple and direct and a means to solve a specific issue.  You need a yard...not the time for E= mc2.

I believe successful people keep things simple ...I believe people that struggle make things complicated. 

I believe that in spades when looking at our Eagles front office.  The more simple they keep things the better the results.  

Yes we differ... you ask a simple question,  I give a simple answer.  If we want to get into more complicated stuff to go further on depth on the topic ..that comes later.    I don't deflect or spin or try to make it complicated to try to make myself sound smart.

I learned that first year in my business...nobody cares about the complicated stuff, they want to know the bottom line and how you can help. You lose people talking about the other stuff

I can see some of your points in basically the thought of not over complicating at least…if I’m not stretching your statement too far to get there. But yeah I could see this applying to the whole winning the Draft Wars on paper stuff. I see the value in taking the No brainer stud even more so because it just takes so much more risk out of the equation. I want the FO to just take Bosa instead of getting a later first and three second rounders. But also for the reason of the elite stars in the NFL are the hardest to obtain and are the biggest difference makers.
