Out of curiosity has anyone gone back to the official website since they closed the board? I haven't. I go to BGN. 

I check during camp but mainly to see how bad it is.  They easily have the worst site in the NFL when it comes to coverage.  I'm a nerd, I'll admit it but one of my favorite things come OTA's and minicamp is to see new players and rookies in their new teams gear and such.  I just love the visuals of the game.  There are teams that have 200 photos from one mini camp practice and the Eagles won't even have a mention anymore.  What was once the best site in the NFL is no more.  Really sad.

The only time I might check during the season is if I want to look at the roster/practice squad.

Bummed that Fitzgerald hasn't signed with the Cardinals yet this season.  Will be a huge shame if they go onto to win the Super Bowl the first year after he didn't even retire but just didn't get signed by anyone.

Yes, there is.  The team gave up on him... and he responded in kind.   It has nothing to do with the fans.  

The team?

Yep.  Saying he gave up on the fans is dumb.  

He turned his back on the fans, went silent, and ran away.

I was a huge Wentz defender on the field but he lost me off of it with how he handled everything post Jalen Hurts

He didn’t turn his back on the fans.  Grow up.  He expressed discontent with his situation privately and got traded.  He didn’t go Bessel on social media or in the press.  He handled it a heck of lot better than OBJ, Deshaun Watson, Aaron Rodgers and many other recent malcontents.  "Ran away”?  

Yep.  The team.  

I wanna fight you

IMO...safety and linebacker are taken later for a few reasons.

Every positions exists for a reason.  If it wasn't important (cough, fullback), it wouldn't be on the field.  A massive liability at S or LB will leave fans crying for one in round 1, but that still doesn't mean it has value there.  But it can still destroy your team if you don't have competency at these positions.

There is a reason that QB's, tackles, edge rushers, and WRs go very early.  A really good player at one of those positions brings more value to the team than a decent player at those positions.  There are more players at those positions that take over games and win them for you.

At LB/S/IOL/DT...NFL scouts, coaches, and GMs feel that there is less schematic difference between a really good player and a decent one.  Sure, there are singular examples of Aaron Donald, or a safety like Ed Reed with 12 int per year...and those guys absolutely have massive top of the draft value...but it's really unlikely you'll get that kind of game-winning impact at those positions.  And teams want game-winning impact at the top of the draft.

You can add CB and DT to that as well.

Those are the positions usually drafted in the top 10.

Probably an unpopular opinion but barring a truly heartfelt apology where he actually tells the truth and comes clean, I want no part of Watson. Too much baggage and Ive had enough of feeling gross rooting for the QB.

I believe that’s the popular opinion around here… or it’s close to 50/50.

If he were to refuse to come here, everyone would hate him for his misadventures.  If he becomes an Eagle, everyone will dismiss the charges.

Im sure the truth is somewhere between him being a serial sexual predator and women just trying to make a buck.  But I dont want some phony baloney, walking head case, circus of a QB situation....again

Well, he allegedly told a sex trade worker that "it’s not going to suck itself”

I’m not sure if a truly heartfelt apology would be in his DNA

If it really was a sex trade worker,  I don't think it would be to much for him to say that being that is their profession.

I did a couple times this season when googling for the schedule and the site was the first link. Normally I never go there. I have the app on my phone but I just use it for the notifications

So wtf is the self defense celebration by odb?

Yeah I missed the 1st quarter didn’t realize it was that good. We’ll see how long Michel holds up

The Cards had the best record all year and no one has really believed in them as legit contenders, and their first prove it game in a while and they're getting spanked so far.

What are the chances that Hurts is still "injured” this week?

The timing of the report of "oh it’s actually a high ankle sprain” was very curious 

If Hurts is a full participant in practice on Wednesday then it's a nonissue.

Open to the team section to check transactions, roster and injury report.

Same. I go to look at the roster for some random reason and I’m always surprised to see Richard Rodgers is still on the PS

Next jersey that I would get is DeVonta Smith.
