I mean look 4th round how huge of a difference would it have been if we took say Maxx Crosby over Miller would that have been a dumb pick then???

Eagles had Graham/Barnett/Hall/Sweat/Curry graham is older, Sweat was unknown, Curry shouldn’t have been brought back and Barnett has been avg. Hall was meh. Miller was a bad pick sure but if that was Crosby instead we have 3 strong DEs again all young and the old head in Graham. Or two youngsters and move on from Barnett Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EaglesTD123 Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 Really disappointed with the production we've had from Barnett. I was expecting more from him. I wouldn't extend him unless a low ball deal as a band aid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cunninghamtheman Posted February 23, 2021 Author Share Posted February 23, 2021 But how much opportunity was there for Miller to succeed? Minimal reps that kept him not even dressing on gamedays. Soooooooo many other positions we could have added to the competition at instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mostly been injury related though. But we lower his 10 mil cap hit by extending him. It’s one of the easier moves to make. Brought in his old Dline coach. He needs to improve on the durability. Needs to cutdown on the dumb mistakes. Take his rush to the next level. 1 minute ago, Bleedinggreen93 said: And if a player plays well we would get more reps not like we had world beaters at DE in an area we needed and still need an upgrade Like we had at LB with Singleton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cunninghamtheman Posted February 23, 2021 Author Share Posted February 23, 2021 Wasn’t Miller on the 53 while Singleton was on the PS? Yeah that’s another reason it was a bad pick. Had to roster him without using him. Missed out on opportunities with others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cunninghamtheman Posted February 23, 2021 Author Share Posted February 23, 2021 DT is actually where we have failed complimenting Cox. Jernigan almost helped. Got injured off field. Never worked. Ridgeway traded for. Always injured. Malik payed big bucks for. Bust! Hargrave.....kind of a forced move. Sure didn’t get the bang for the buck. So I’d say DT would have made much more since than Miller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our DL had what 41 sacks(we had what 49 as a team 8 came from players not on the DL) Half those sacks came From 3 players two of which are above 30.

jsb235 Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 Chris Long on Carson Wentz. "His leadership, our Super Bowl year, from the beginning, I never thought about or evaluated whether he was a leader or not. What I thought was ‘damn this kid’s pretty good.’ And he’s a good kid. If anything, he’s a little shy. You’d like to see him reach out more and kind of go over to that corner of the locker room. I read Albert Breer’s article, which I thought was the fairest synopsis yet, which read, in effect, that actually people think he’s a good guy, what he needs to do is reach out to every corner of the locker room better. The coachability and stubbornness, he ain’t the only player, but we expect something more out of a quarterback. Right? That’s the bottom line. He’s not the only quarterback who is stubborn. This has existed as this extreme conversation when, he’s got things to fix, but I don’t remember ever thinking, ‘what an a-hole.’" I think this sums up the biggest difference between a Carson Wentz and a Jalen Hurts. Hurts from day 1 commanded the locker room. Even though he was a backup, a lot of people with the team (most notably Jason Avant who was an assistant coach last year) said that he prepared like he was the starter, and reached out to people all through the team. And when he became the starter, he wasn't lost in the moment. To me, Jordan Mailata was the same way. He started, played well, got benched, and then was put back in the starting lineup. and he never complained or let it impact his play. Same with Herbig. And JJAW (who I like and I think will have a role for us this year) was the same way. He got benched and never whined, and made a big play on the fumble recovery in the end zone, and then came out and played well in the last game of the season. I wouldn't draft a qb in round one because I like the vibe this offense is developing with guys who aren't afraid to put the team ahead of themselves. Greg Ward is another scrapper who keeps making play after play. You get enough guys like that in the building, and suddenly you have an offense that has 11 guys working together and it creates a winning atmosphere. And it starts with the QB, and Wentz wasn't providing that quality that Hurts will. To me, we are turning the page on Ertz (whined about his salary), Peters (demanded more money to change positions), Wentz (afraid to compete with Hurts), Desean (obvious issues), and Alshon (allegedly anonymous source) and while the guys replacing them may not have the ability or the draft pedigree, never underestimate a locker room that has a winning culture.

Over DE where we had avg. Curry unknown Sweat. 30 year old Graham. Barnett bums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
