    Just some random comments for people who didn't watch the game and have no intention to do so. I find myself being more annoyed at the result of the game than I probably should. It's ridiculous t

I think Herbig is safe with his G/C versatility.  He's been up and down this camp but I think he's a lock.

I agree. He played well at C against the Jets and I'm glad he got that bad snap against the Pats. Should calm him down if/when he's in at C.

We are loaded on the OL.

*indicates injury/COVID/game cancelled. Basically anything that kept a QB from playing that was not a coach sitting a healthy starter.

This f'ing guy is doing everything he can to not get a first round pick

Dickerson's overalls and Minshew's mustache bring some serious BDE to the team

 

Just an exposure at least

Minshew mania sweeping Philadelphia

I hope the team stays healthy.  My only point about Herbig is that Dickerson and Seumalo have that same versatility.  If Dickerson is ready to play, I am not sure Herbig deserves a spot over Opeta.

At least he didn’t join the crate walking craze. Then he’d be out for the season.

The almighty asterisk. Just completely makes or breaks the list and career of Jalen Hurts

The astros agree 

Wentz getting Covid right now is the best possible scenario as one, it's inevitable, and two, he's already hurt. Knock them both out at the same time.

He's not hurt, he was set to return to full team drills today

If he pulls himself from another game right before opening kickoff I'll be calling him Poops or Trots from that moment forward.

If Dickerson is ready to play, he should start over Seumalo.  I've been saying this for a while now but I like Dickerson as LG1.  Mailata and Dickerson is one massive left side of the line.  Herbig can be your back up.  

Seumalo is only signed through 2022.  With all this talk about Seumalo being the next center...have we ever seen him play the position?  Also, in watching all of the Mailata tape from last year, Seumalo sticks out like a sort thumb in many of them.   Dickerson SHOULD be the superior player.   If the Eagles can trade Seumalo, they should. 

 

I would like the following as the starting 5 and the backups.   Seumalo and Dillard can bring back draft capital or player swap.

Mailata   Dickerson   Kelce   Brooks   Johnson

Toth  Opeta  Herbig  Driscoll 

Excited for the inevitable "Carson Wentz is a bad teammate" articles coming from Colts writers this season.

Not sure why, he was a close contact of a coach that got it, he did not get it himself.

Curious.  What did he "do” or "not do” for you to say that?

Nothing, just annoyed

As much as I hate Ertz's RAC ability, talk about a gorgeous route runner.

Let’s trade him for a late 6th Rounder ..🙄🙄

QB- Hurts, Flacco, Minshew (3)

RB- Sanders, Scott, Gainwell, Howard (4)

TE- Ertz, Goedert, Tyree (then IR him and bring back Dick Rod) (3)

WR- Smith, Reagor, Watkins, Ward, JJAW, Hightower (could being in someone off waivers to replace Hightower, JJAW stays because of Lowie) (6)

O-Line- Mailata, Seumalo, Kelce, Brooks, Johnson, Dickerson, Dillard, Driscoll then 2 of the following I would assume: Toth, Opeta, Herbig, Pryor (10)

**Dillard is getting traded if we get a 5th rounder+ back**

D-Line- Graham, Cox, Hargrave, Barnett, Sweat, Williams, Kerrigan, McGill, Ridgeway (would have loved to keep Jackson but think they beef up DT with Ridgeway instead since Milton can move to DE in packages) (9)

LB- Singleton, Wilson, Johnson (Avery to PUP), Edwards, Bradley, Taylor (tough given unknowns of injuries with Taylor/Avery) (6)

CB- Slay, Nelson, Maddox, McPhearson, (will add 1-2 off waivers, no others are worth holding onto) (5 if just one off waivers)

S- Harris, McLeod, Wallace, Epps (could replace Epps on waivers easily) (4)

K- Elliot (1)

P- Siposs (1)

LS- Lovato (1)

Bolds are mortal locks (assuming no trades).  Italics are situations/players I'm especially intrigued about today. Need to add depth to CB/S via waivers - there is zero depth here.

Thoughts?

For the most part I agree.  The only thing I feel different on is your view of Epps.  He's a borderline starter here and I would argue Wallace is the one you could replace via waivers.
