I must have been isolated in my youth as I just did not know about all this prejudice growing up. My parents just never said anything when I brought home a new friend that was Jewish or Black. They just treated all my friends like anyone else. So I never thought about it until I was older. I always was brought up that there were two kinds of people. Good and bad. Anyway, that is why I have such a hard time dealing with all this BLM and other organizations. I blame the parents. Teach your kids to treat everyone as you would want them to treat you and let it be.

   Anyway, enough of my ranting.

Lmao if you preferred O at first why you going D in the first.... it should never change 

I never preferred either lmao. Have always said we need both sides addressed, but yeah put those words in my mouth-comical

lol, You two crack me up. I think BG has been fairly consistant. He wrote he did not prefer a QB but stated the Eagles always go that way or O-Lineman if I remember correctly.  GB wanted Pitts or Chase before they traded away the pick. Since he has been D-O -D as a preference.

because I never had a preference,I have always said we need both sides addressed

Like you putting words in mine lol because I said I wanted QB I had to prefer O comical.... But you didn’t when it was Smith then Pitts and every other O weapon under the sun but nope you didn’t prefer O lmao

I do not care. I just want Howie to draft starters period!

You bet, and I have been saying as such. I also said I would like to see a nice mix of O and D,the order does not concern me

If we want to look at what I preferred it has always been D from the start even when I said QB at 6 the rest of my picks were focused on the D 

We moved out of the QB convo and I go to what I was doing to begin with focusing on the D more never changed

If D was always your priority why would you take an offensive player at 6? I would think you'd want a defensive stud????

So there's no way we could trade back up for a QB???(not that we would) or another OFFENSIVE player???? I suppose there is zero way we take an offensive guy at 12 either lol

Don’t think Pitts will be there...And I just don’t understand drafting him he is a TE played 59 snaps as a WR I don’t think he is better then Geodart at TE... So unless we are projecting out as a WR to me he is a backup 

WOW, then Reagor belongs on the PS

I think good chance a lot of you guys might find pick 12 to be " offensive "

before I forget. Hope everyone has a healthy and Happy Easter. I am going to try and take off a bit early today and do not go on the EMB when I am home. Too many distractions going on all the time. Between my kids and grand kids I have no time for the internet. In fact, I closed my FB account last may and have not missed the political crap one bit.....

 

 

  

Happy Easter/Passover. Like you friends were friends and we treated them all the same and enjoyed learning about out differences as well as similarities. And we did it without the BS name calling,labeling or discrimination

yes your rant on a QB at 6 convinced me you were defense minded all the way clown. I wanted Pitts from the beginning because he was the best player. I never said I was for either because of an article(I can think for myself)

And your drafting a D player now at 12 and I wanted QB because he was the best player and the Eagles general MO

Because he is the best player there, not because I prefer one or the other or because an article came out

And Wilson was the best player there not because I preferred one or the other 

But hey love the double standards

Unfortunately HR's record shows he prefers those "offensive" players

1. I think Pitts is going to Atlanta at 4.   Dude is an absolute stud catching the ball, put him with those WRs, scary.

2.  ATL could trade back, IDK though,  I have always assumed Chase goes to Cincy with Burrow,  I thought the OL from Oregon was more " potential " as compared to NFL ready?

3. Does Carolina feel it needs to trade up after pick 3 ?  Idk.  But I could easily see them staying and the 4th QB falling?  Idk that it might even be better to take another player and offer the Jets another pick for Darnold ?  2nd or 3rd maybe?  

4. The Eagles may have many needs.  When I look at the roster we have way more " maybes" with youth on offense. The defense is lacking both youth and potential.   Even the most positive of positive guys on the board, they know it's way more of a stretch and hoping and praying for the younger D guys to step up.    It's why I think defense makes more sense in this particular draft  "if 2 players with equal 6.813 draft grade"   and Harris at S doesn't flip the need at all for me back to offense. 

Either way, we need to hit on this draft,  goes way beyond our first selection , if it's at 6, 12 or anywhere else.

Parsons would be awesome, simply because it's  been since 1979, I was younger than my 6 year old son, the last time they took an LB first.   I like to see anything that breaks these ideas that I personally believe the organization goes way overboard to follow. 

See Paye did well on his pro day. Daniel Jeremiah says he "pulled up" at the end - injury?

Lets trade back out of round 1altogether, and may as well trade back out of round 2 also while we're at it. Gimme those 57 "average" BU players. No need for studs on this team

Top DT and stud LB aren’t to be sneezed at....plus we’d add to our draft capital. Could possibly move back into round two and still have an extra pick in the deal.

LOL but we need everything,so the point is rather moot. I will also remind you we have only 1 top rate RB. I like Scott, but 2 isn't enough. Our WR's are "mediocre". They seem solid, but noone is going to DT any of them. We need to get Kelces replacement in here, we need solid O line players and more BU depth, so to say all we need is defense is total fallacy. Our D wasn't all that bad considering they were on the field for 35 minutes a game because the O couldn't score. So I'm taking a CB first,then a WR

I’m just not sure about the obsession with Kelce replacement. When he considered returning this season...I don’t think it was a one year decision. It was a ‘do I want to stick around on this rebuild?’  type question. I’m thinking he believes in two....maybe that third season. Three seasons in the NFL is most any window you ever get.
