Really need some QBs to go early.

Carolina, Seattle, Washington...please.

I think Carolina really wants to trade down and they have no other picks to the 4th round.  I wonder if Howie can get the 6th pick just with 15 and the 2 thirds.

Problem is, without a QB going in the top 10, the trade up targets may be gone.  

Yup, if no QBs get drafted before us our options become really limited at 15. Really want Pickett and Willis to go top 10.

WITH THE 15th PICK IN THE DRAFT THE PHILADELPHIA EAGLES SELECT...

KENNY PICKETT, QB, PITTSBURGH.

 

I don't quite understand the London hate. Why don't you want him?

I see a big stiff in him. Huge bust potential

you want a big body pass catcher get it day 3 with a te

Brings the Steelers into play to trade back to get ahead of New Orleans.  Also, puts Ridder in play in round 2 for the Eagles.

Draft or Sixers tonight? Ug.

Yes

Get Thibodeaux or Stingley

Would you rather the Sixers choke but we get Sauce or win but we get McDuffie?

Won the Chuck Bednarik Award.   Unicorn numbers at the Combine for a DT.  Last three DTs to win that award are Jonathan Allen, Aaron Donald and Suh.  Pretty good company. Helped make Dean look like a top draft choice

I stopped watching the draft years ago. It's the perfect thing to follow online. Who needs 15 minutes of annoying analyst filler between each pick

Sauce

From McGinn

2. LEWIS CINE, Georgia (6-2, 202, 4.36, 1-2): Third-year junior, two-year starter. "Love him,” one scout said. "He’s a run-and-hit, mean kid. He will try to get into your soul. Plays with such great effort. He’s a ball-playing Jesse … He’s a different kid. I don’t know how well he’s going to fit in every locker room. He’s very high on himself. I think the kid’s smart enough to (accept coaching).” One of the hardest hitters in the draft. "He knocked out (Kyle) Pitts at Florida in 2020,” another scout said. "It was like a post (route). Pitts missed a game with a concussion (and nasal surgery). Not a real big kid but he’s wiry and can run.” Born in Haiti. Moved to Florida at age 4. Played three years in high school at Everett, Mass., and another in Cedar Hill, Texas, where an assistant coach at the school was Deion Sanders. "Was discovered by Deion,” said a third scout. "They say he’s kind of quirky, and he is. In his interview, he’s a little bit of an odd personality. I wouldn’t necessarily be scared of that. His straight-line speed showed up in coverage. I thought he could play down. He doesn’t have a ton of experience in the middle of the field but he can do it.” Played free safety, finished with 145 tackles (3 ½ for loss), two picks, 16 PBUs and no forced fumbles. Wonderlic of 16. Was suspended twice for fighting. "He’s not a first,” said a fourth scout. "Not a great man cover guy. But he will knock the living crap out of you.”

Sixers until the draft stsrts then at that point depends on how the game is going.  Either way game should be over before the Eagles pick unless they trade up.

There seems to be a consensus top 12.    Hutch, Thib, Johnson....3 OTs....Sauce, Stingley, Hamilton...Wilson, Williams, London

I'd be happy with one of Stingley, Hamilton, or Williams at 10.

Let me amend this...

I'd be happy with to trade up to 13 (Houston) to get Davis.  I doubt he gets past Baltimore at 14.

I agree. With the slotting for this draft all over the place, I want to see them take guys with great size and athleticism for their positions with high ceilings. In mid R1 for me that’s Williams (deep speed), Davis (athleticism for his huge size), Burks (size and explosiveness), Elam (length), Hamilton (size). I’d love to see Davis and a small trade down taking either Burks if they go WR or Elam if they go CB. Davis and Hamilton is a pipe dream. 

I'd be totally happy with any of the scenarios you mentioned.

Do we have a list of the fall guys for Howie's ineptitude this year ??

Well we are probably going to lose Andy Weidl in a month so it's time to bury him on his way out

I do like the thought of having a big, physical WR to go along with Smith and Watkins though.  If they take one of Williams, Olave or Wilson, then you have 3 WR all hovering around 6-0 and under 200.  That's a pretty small WR group.  

Now, you bring in a 6-2 225 lb WR and that really changes the dynamics of the WR room.  

Yup, not that teams over the years haven't been successful with a group of Smurf WRs but I tend to think having a mix of different sized and skilled guys makes for a more balanced passing attack.

McGinn again

DAXTON HILL, Michigan (6-0, 191, 4.40, 1-2): Played 71.9% of his snaps in the slot as the nickel in 2021 after lining up more as a safety in 2020. "My favorite player, collectively through the whole process, was Daxton Hill,” said one scout. "It’s more from a competitive football standpoint, what he’s all about. The toughness. He has such versatility, and the right mindset to go with it.” Blazed a fast 40; led the position in the short shuttle (4.06) and the 3-cone (6.57). "Very, very talented,” another scout said. "He can easily go out there and play corner. Doesn’t have really good ball skills. Can’t find the ball. I don’t think he’ll be a real intercept guy. He is a willing tackler and he can really run. He can play nickel or either safety. He doesn’t play particularly hard all the time. There’s something about the kid that’s a little bit off. He’s a really nice kid. Just something about him that scares me.” An extreme introvert with a Wonderlic of 11. "He’s really not a safety because he’s not smart enough to play safety,” said a third scout. "He’s only going to be a nickel slot defender.” Finished with 151 tackles (7 ½ for loss), one-half sack, four picks, no forced fumbles and 20 PBUs. "He loses a step when he has to turn and run (in coverage),” a fourth scout said. "He will get his hands on the wide receivers. He’s got adequate foot quickness but poor footwork on plant and drive with marginal burst to close on wide receivers.” From Tulsa, Okla.

Choke and give me sauce. Lose game 7 too and give me Williams.

He's the guy I fell in love with and now after reading that, I can tell you I won't be happy where he ends up.
