Some interesting comps 

 

DB012DBE-301F-468D-906D-F1AB0CB40D05.jpeg

Willis is no where near as fast as vick was.

Garrett Wilson and diggs I can see that.

London doesn't have the run past speed Evans does, I think comps more to a guy like Keyshawn.

Pickett Dalton yup.

I don't know about olave and mcclauren.

Is 6'1 about 185 lbs Mcclauren is 6' 210🤷‍♂️

Hutchinson isnt as bendy or explosive as bosa. If he was he'd be consensus #1, he still may go 1 but I don't think he's the same type of pass rusher as bosa.

Gardner -Richard Sherman I guess? Bout the same size but if Sherman was as athletic as Gardner he would have gone before the 5th round .

Devin Lloyd , Leonard, sure i think Leonard is a more explosive blitzer.

 Walker and sweat, I think sweat showed more as a pass rusher coming out.

Thibs and clowney, both not bendy clowney more violent than thibs?

Charles Robinson said he’s heard from folks that WR isn’t the priority most folks believe. He didn’t say it wasn’t a priority, but not the priority. 

That's interesting. Watching DJ's final mock on TV he has Wilson, London, Williams and Olave all gone by 11. 
He has us taking Hamilton then McDuffie.

London is not slow , he was clocked at a speed that would have put him 11 th fastest WO in the NFL last year ….. and Evans doesn’t make a living running by defenders , he plays to his 4.53 time , he won’t be having people say damn Mike Evans is fast .

yes please!!!!

Give me a WR and Cine and I'm happy.

Trade up for Wilson/Williams then back for Cine. I think that's one option I would be fully satisfied with.

I hate the McDuffie pick. Would be totally fine if we went Hamilton as he slid right to us. I think that shouldn't be overthought and just hand in the card.

I don't know what to think of Wilson.  

Hamilton and Hill

He's a damn good player.   Good route runner like Olave but more explosive

Oh man, he's gonna be a good one.

Setting myself up for letdown letting myself think Thibs could happen.

As a side note I’m starting to get tired of that uStadium account. They’re online all Fing day and they try to put themselves at the center of every rumor or report. 

Quick poll. Greater confidence: Sixers win game 6 or Howie nails it tomorrow?

Sixers win.

I really want a inside LB, specifically Walker or Muma. Walker probably doesn't make it to our 2nd round pick it sounds like, but if he slides, maybe you can move up in round 2 for him. If not Muma would be just fine. Pair one of them with White and it has the potential to be a nice tandem and possibly even to get excited about.

I like Lloyd, how pumped would this fan base be with a good off the ball LB selection in round 1. As far as the negatives, he's from the PAC-12 and will be 24 at the start of the season, would the eagles use a 1st rounder there?

I would be surprised if Howie picks a LB in the 1st rd.... EVER

DB012DBE-301F-468D-906D-F1AB0CB40D05.jpeg

I hate draft Comps... they never turn out even close to the players they list- each player is unique to himself.

Hill

Normally, yes. Dax has impressive range and versatility for C1 high safety and slot work (which might not be a regular feature in our D). LC has a lot of experience playing in the deep end,  gets downhill fast and is a sure tackler which is a skillset that will definitely be used here. Either one would be a great pickup.

They also seem rather lazy.

I like Tindall as well, ascending player with a similar profile as Dean but without the size/length concerns. Sideline-sideline range, decent in coverage, less concern but stack and shed ability (although Quay Walker has a pretty high floor).

Back me up on this @HazletonEagle.  I didn't realize until said it but you're right. He has a similar build

Yeah, I won't mind either. I like both of their playing styles for their own reasons. Like you said, I just really like the versatility that Hill can provide. I'm assuming that we'll have an entirely different defensive style going into this season providing the draft goes as anticipated so it's hard to know what to expect moving forward.

On game tape London doesn't make a habit of lining up on the outside and just running past DBs deep 

Where as Evans has more than a few on game tape where he just lines up and runs past a DB, usually the DB will try and turn and stay in his hip pocket maybe get a little grabby but Evans is so strong and powerful that he just powers through the contact and leaves the DBs in his wake, reminds me of TO in that way, TO wasn't the fastest guy but he was explosive and powerful, Evans too 

London not so much, though like I've said before his contact balance for a guy with his height is impressive and he's always fighting for yac, which I like but I think sometime if one wants to preserve ones career it's wiser to go down like the rams WRs, catch and drop like a sniper just shot out your hammy.😄

I'm not hazelton but yeah I've said more than once Burks reminds me of TO with better hands.

Same build same height, both explosive players, TO coming out though had awkward hands, he didn't quite know how to position his hands on some catches and wasn't a natural catcher 

Burks hands look a little better
