Yes CB and DL make sense day one and S and WR make sense day 2.  So that won't be it.  I think Howie will trade up for a premium player.  He's lost out on too many deals this offseason.  I don't see a situation where they pick at both 15 and 18 and just take BPA at each

I don’t think we pick at 15 I think it’ll be earlier.  I believe he’ll use 83 (and perhaps one of our 5s or our 4 depending on how far he wants to go) to move up for either an edge rusher, CB, or WR.  As for 18 I hope he only considers trading down if there isn’t a player there that makes perfect sense for us and he gets good value in return.  But obviously you need a team to have interest in the pick … if the rumor you posted earlier is true in that there are many more teams wanting to trade down than up, it may be difficult to move out of that spot without feeling like we got fleeced.

If the rumors are true and teams want to move back he of all people should get us a good deal moving up with 15 though. I like it.

If there's a WR that drops to 18 I can see GB or KC trading up. That's probably our best chance.

Keep reading that this is our guy apparently?

Best receiver and the only reason we might be in play is that he tore his acl. Some think he will still be a top 10 pick despite of that.

When asked about how injuries factor in Roseman said that you get to collect more information when the injury is earlier, which many interpreted as directed at Williams. His injury was in January and he supposedly might be back early.

Many smoke screens this time of year but it reminds me a bit of last year when they went out of their way saying that weight isn’t the most important and how receivers can be used at the X and such. People then interpreted that as directed at Smith…

I do wonder how Reagor might look if we had better QB play.  But that comment wasn't necessarily related to Williams - it was more of a general comment (I still think we need more at WR than what we have).  But that doesn't mean we need to use a day 1 (or day 2) pick on the position.  Personally I am hoping the board falls in such a way that we are able to use both of Thursday's picks to address defense, specifically edge rusher and CB.  And then wouldn't mind if we used day 2 to address WR with someone like Pickens and S.  

Reagor can't catch what he is thrown, Hurts hit him in the hands multiple times and the ball went down, maybe he looks slightly better elsewhere in a different scheme but I was always worried about picking a guy who's below par college production was blamed on QB play, all signs are he was just never that good and we'd have got more out of just about any other receiver picked in the first 2 or 3 rounds.

I mean going in to that draft I was Reagor over Jefferson. I liked the speed and at the time that was a major need for this team. But look I've learnt from that because this team shouldn't try to be cute or clever. Just go get the BPA or the best WR. If that guy is similar in build or style to Smith then so be it. Yes a bigger bodied guy would be nice but ultimately this team needs long term good players.

I most definitely recognize he has had issues with drops but I also have seen multiple times where he was running wide open and Hurts just didn't see him.  Just thinking his numbers could (likely would) be better had the QB saw the field better and connected with him on some of those.  But hey I am not trying to defend him ... I was never fine with the selection.  When the pick was announced I was immediately critical of it thinking they made a huge mistake (I wanted Jefferson).  I really wanted Lamb but since he was snapped up earlier Jefferson became my next preference.

I will defend Reagor to a certain degree. You are correct, there were many time, Reagor and Smith were open but Hurts didn't see them or he double clutches and wont pull the trigger. Hurts is a stop gap QB and we will have to draft one next year. In the meantime, stack the WR room for the new QB next year

Pretty, pretty ideal - as all of these guys could go ahead of where they are slotted on TDN.

I don't know about that.  There are a few reports claiming he is who we are targeting ... makes me think this is more smoke screen than a where there is smoke there is fire situation.  Draft plans aren't typically leaked.

It's also been reported the Eagles are focusing on pass rush and wr in the first. I think it's more likely then not he's the pick if he's there

If he’s there… I can’t help but think of John Ross who went 9.

What does this mean?

If he’s snapped up in the top 10: "Fire Howie!”

But if he drops to us, "other teams are afraid of his health BUT Howie is obsessed with injury prone players smh!!!!”

Once again it's embarrassingly telegraphed if he's their actual guy.  Imagine having to trade up because the entire world knows who you want at 15. Would be the height of incompetence and that's saying something for this front office

I would love him with Devonta but this does nothing to help them draft him. It is almost guaranteed that he will be drafted top 14 because a team will simply trade up above 15 to draft him. Now the eagles must trade up to draft him if they really want him.

Agreed.  I don’t think he’s our target.

Ya I think they are trying to pump him up so Wilson falls. Eagles have been pretty quiet on Wilson and have brought literally every other WR to the facility. I think Wilson is the true target here

I think maybe he's the at 15 if he falls and the D targets are gone guy and he lasts.  If he gets taken early then it pushes a D player down

People here just won't recognize that Reagor has been a main WR for two of the worst QB seasons in team history.  And he had a coach who had given up and one that was a 5th choice hire.  One day, he will hit his stride. 

I agree with adding a WR for the next QB, as well.
