Tevi has consistently been one of the worst starters in the league.  I don't think the Colts are going to panic and give up anything of value for Dillard (lol) with Braden Smith already in the fold and Eric Fisher set to come back at some point.  They also have Julie'n Davenport who's probably as good as Tevi.

On a separate note, I'm assuming Watson must have been at least semi-open to Philly at one point - otherwise, why would the Eagles have wasted all that time investigating?  I'm sure Watson would prefer Miami or even Carolina, but if the Dolphins are gonna hold Houston over a barrel on the premise that they're the only bidder, I could see the Eagles making a late push from the back door.

Any of the LBs stick out on STs in any of the preseason games? Arguably the most interesting position going into cuts.

Why.  He had more catches than anyone on the Eagles last year.

You set a high bar, my friend.

Dillard and Ertz and a 5th to Colts for a 3rd.

Sanders to Baltimore for a 2nd and 3rd.

They will probably get a better deal from compensation picks and still have Ertz on the team for this season.

Kinda sad, but if the Colts keep having injuries, that trade could look very good if Wentz is able to stay vertical.

As the same time, losing his OL makes him potentially a more vulnerable target, which makes the second part of that less likely.

You presume the Eagles won't sign th FA that cancels any comp pick for Ertz.

They should have enough 1 year contracts to compensate for that.

But, it is a good point.

I haven't seen any record predictions recently.  Did I miss them?   I've been trying to read every post, but can't be certain.   Find yourself on the list.

Basically just Singleton 

 

edit: glossed over the ST’s part for some reason. I thought you meant just in preseason. 

@Iggles_Phan 10-7

5-12 for me

@Iggles_Phan

Put me down for 10-7 please.

We will trade them Matt Pryor.  

What else are we going to have to give to get them to take him?

I hate the 17 game schedule. It triggers unevenness OCD. 8-9 or 9-8 are gross to look at.

Watch he turns out to be like Dennis Kelly when we traded him for Dgb

Good news i think they eventually go to 18 games. 

Vikings starting TE is having surgery on his meniscus. Maybe Howie can fleece them again

Kinda have a feeling if the vikings aren’t good this year that zimmer is in trouble. So i could see them being desperate to make a trade for ertz. Not sure you get them fleeced though 

Wentz is back. Colts are losing player after player. Hopefully this is a top 10 pick.

Losing Hilton stinks but i do think Pittman, pascal and Campbell can hold the fort til he comes back. Frankly i think Pittman could have a really good year for the colts. He was beginning to flourish at the end of the season last year. The oline injuries are what is more pressing. They really need Nelson back especially with tevi being out. Means their entire left side of the line is out. That said i thought the colts made a mistake not taking darrisaw at 21 and going with paye this past draft. I like paye but darrisaw filled a huge void at LT and i believe could play from day one. Then again darrisaw is also dealing with a nagging injury at the moment.

There’s someone out there that can step in and help

Is Josina going to do the contract negotiation so they know what he wants?

I can see a person like Watson wanting to enjoy the lifestyle/weather of Miami and low taxes of Florida, over wanting to go to an NFL town in Philadelphia where he will be under the microscope.

This was a pretty play with nice work by all the OL, TE and a WR. Shows what you can do with OL who can move

Gainwell is the arrow. Dillard is the green circle, Stoll the orange circle. Toth the light green circle, Herbig the blue circle, Opeta the red circle, and Driscoll the yellow circle.

Stoll blocks the RDE, Toth and Herbig double the RDT, Dillard pulls, Opeta turns his man out (the LDT), Herbig releases and goes hunting the MLB, Dillard leads the play through the A gap and Driscoll takes the LDE.

Herbig has engaged the MLB, Dillard is zeroing in on the OLB and Ward, whom I should have mentioned before, is squared up on the box safety.

Here you can see everyone is making his block. It's a beautiful thing. Gainwell is just now cutting of Dillard's left hip and you can see that Herbig has engulfed the MLB.

It's up to the deep safety to make the tackle. Just a beautiful play.

I'll do better with the All-22.
