Some day Eagles fans are going to look back and realize just how important and underrated both Lane and Kelce are/were. Probably more so with Lane who has quietly been one of the best RT's in football for almost a decade.

Yeah lane often gets left out of the conversation because of the roids and the injuries, but when he's right he's the top RT in the league in my opinion.

I'm pretty sure Seumalo played center for a while. It wasn't pretty. I don't recall details and circumstances, just that he (Seumalo) didn't live up to his billing.

Yup he had a few wild snaps, I think it was in pre season though.

As a rookie he played a game at RT and actually looked pretty good.

He's been up and down at guard but last year was an up for him for the most part.

It's too bad he got hurt, he's an upgrade over Driscoll.

If Herbig is back next year which after last game he might not be, the eagles will have 4 guys on the roster that can play center, assuming Kelce isn't back.

Dickerson, Driscoll, Herbig, and Seumalo.

Not sure if Toth has ever played Center?

I assume Brooks is gone after this year and Driscoll so far can't be counted on to stay healthy so they may need another guard as well.

Kayode owasika is on the PS plays guard and Sua Opeta is still on the roster but I could see Howie using a day 2 or 3 pick on an interior OL.

I liked what I saw from Kayode in PS though and would give him every opportunity to get a roster spot next year.

 

This benching Reagor debate...

Who is going to play when Reagor gets benched?  Reagor has already been "benched" in favor of Watkins, who has played significantly more snaps for the last 2 weeks.  The coach has already washed his hands of Reagor's increased targets and indirectly put that on the QB.

Now, the #3 WR is on the field for about 2/3 of the snaps, which is what we are seeing from Reagor.  Do you really want JJAW or Ward in there over Reagor?  Maybe you do.  Hard to pick one.  But you can't really say they are playing draft favorites just because Reagor is playing over JJAW and Ward.

Only ignorant ones.

I think it would confuse the OL too much; they’ll still be blocking guys after the pass has been completed, the WR tackled, and everyone trying to huddle up for the next play.

I wonder why you keep posting

Frankly, I'd go with Hightower at this point.   What's to be lost?

Hmmm.... that's tough to sacrifice, but I'm willing to do it for the good of the franchise.

Nothing to lose in benching Reagor, nothing to gain by going with Hightower.

Different flavor... same result.   Would just make me feel better to not see Reagor.  Every time I see him, I am reminded about Jefferson, and that irritates me.

Yup dude might have butter fingers and shy away from contact but at least the dude Has shown he can get separation and get open.

Reagor rarely gets open.

Though hightowers best asset is getting open deep and hurts hasn't shown he can hit guys deep.

Maybe ward would be a better replacement, he doesn't have much speed but at least he can run a route and catch a pass.

The flea flicker screen pass has not gotten the proper attention it deserves. Kitchens is a mad lad.

What would the opposite of a flea flicker screen be? A shovel pass Hail Mary? 

Lincoln Riley already flipped his first 5* recruit to USC.

Man does this kid have an arm, effortless release with legit distance.

better kick returns to be gained.

These coaches being shady wouldn’t entice me to want to play for them
