What?  Reaching for him in the 1st round?  Yeah, that would be another Howie special.  Being on the side of Howie and ESP is not a good place to be.  You're bonkers.  

Ok cool. I love the kid and would take him at #18. No one really has a good grasp on where players will go this draft so you're just using mock drafts to determine which round he will go without accounting for his talent in comparison to others at the position.

Let's say Wilson is still on the board at pick 18 - would you draft him or would you make a trade with someone like the Chiefs, get more picks and then take Pickens at 29/30?

Trade

Add Pickens to the list of 50 guys who will be drafted in the first round.  Hot Takers unite.  

 

 

JFC.  🤣

That's pretty much how it is this draft. You could name 40-50 players that could potentially go in R1.

Stop.  I was one of the early ones in here touting Pickens, still during the season when he came back.  So try that with someone else.  Of course we are all use mocks and projections.  But I watch a ton of SEC football, I know his talent.  So spare me with that too.  He's good at squirting water bottles as well. In case you didn't know.  

I've learned not to argue with you about CFB so I will just leave it alone. It was just my personal preference.

Oh no. I agree with ESP about Pickens too. 

I agree with him on Pierce too. Pierce is in round 4 of TDN mocks. A team should be thrilled with the value they got of they took him early 2nd.

Watch him play. Very passive, people break his tackles often. He's a speed rusher only and can't fight off blocks consistently at all. He's long and skinny. Midget was probably not the right word, as he of course isn't short. He just plays like a tiny guy and gets pushed around often. Wide 9 guy exclusively in my opinion.

Weaknesses

• More productive and impactful in 2020 than he was in 2021.
• Feasted on lesser foes for sack totals.
• Has big strides to make in positional development.
• Inconsistent edge-setter with lean lower half.
• Take-on and finishing demeanor is far too passive.
• Plays to, rather than through, the target, leading to broken tackles.
• Charges into tackles with ineffective, down-the-middle approach.
• Unskilled hands fail to create rush opportunities.

I'm immediately suspicious of data that shows the first QB (Lawrence) on-target with 70% of the throws, with only 40% completion percentage.

Was he throwing to a Nelson Agholor every play?

If anything Higgins made his inaccurate throw look better.  That's completely bogus.

But I buy it on this draft class. It's not a good class.

About time.  I PM'd @e-a-g-l-e-s eagles! about it last night.  We have been waiting for someone to notice.

Also, one of the questions teams have had for Corral is to ask how he handled drop 8 defense, something he, Howell and Strong  saw a ton of this past season.

Remember back in the day when some bloggers were arguing to draft a Center in the top 20?  Yeah.....good times.  

As long as we have Stoutland, we can afford to wait until day 3 to address that position

No brainer.  Trade down and draft Pickens in the 2nd round where he will go.  Only WR I'd be willing to draft at 15 or 18 is Williams.  And I am very willing.  

 

Reaching for Pickens 20-30 picks too early would be another stain.  And I have liked him for a while.  Just not in the first.  

I agree. However I would really think about taking him with pick 30.

There has been a lot of smoke surrounding him and I don't think he would last to their 2nd round pick.

5 minutes ago, 4for4EaglesNest said:

We're not drafting the 3-4th rated WR in the draft at 18.  That would be insanely dumb.  ESP suggesting it, should be your first clue.  

 

 

Yeah I dont agree with ESP in that we take him at 18. I think the 2 first picks should go to defense. That 2nd round though I want them to move up to get Pickens on this team.

He's been getting mocked to the Ravens @ 14 now. I would rejoice.

Nah.  Let someone else reach for him.  We've done enough reaching the past 3 years.  

 

Between the reaches and the self pats on the back saying we had a first round grade on every one of our mid round picks, Howie’s gonna need the team doc to reset his shoulder back in place.

Just a little over a week before H.E. can spoil the draft picks because he has to act like he's an insider, to show he has the information before everyone else.  When in reality he gets the picks on twitter.  

I used to log in here just so I could know the pick earlier, but now I just use twitter. I still log in though for the ****ing session after the pick though
