Will he be able to unseat Reagor though? Training camp battle to keep an eye on. Yes but he will still be behind Smith and Watkins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NOTW Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 1 hour ago, downundermike said: And you are 100% incorrect. If you would use the technology at your disposal ( Twitter ), you would have known the Williams to Detroit selection was announced 4 minutes before the Eagles traded up. It was also mentioned several times on the telecast that the team on the clock is notified who the selection before them is when they go on the clock. It is quite clear that Davis was the Eagles target, and the Ravens were going to take him if the Eagles did not trade up. edited to add ( thanks @Outlaw ) they had the AJ Brown deal done well before the draft, so there was no need to draft a WR. Do you really think they made the trade, and then negotiated the new contract that quickly ?? 1 hour ago, Outlaw said: 100%. Davis was the target. The Eagles knew the Brown deal was basically done far longer than just last night. Williams was never coming here. It's been reported for weeks that they really liked Davis and were willing to trade up for him. Not at all surprised they drafted him. AJ Brown deal had to be in the works for a while, he was working out with Hurts last week and Howie said twice in recent press conferences that he works on potential terms of deals ahead of the draft to know what it will take so it makes it easier to quickly make trades while on the clock. They wanted Davis and Brown heading into this draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give me Jermaine Johnson at 15 + 124 + 162 + 166 over Davis every day of the week. I'm not too crazy about the Jordan Davis pick. Hope he turns into a great player but I'd rather they take Hamilton there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garingovt2000 Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 Any chance we go WR again if Pickens, Pierce, or Watson are on the board? My prediction/hot take is Pierce goes to Green Bay and leads all WR in receiving yards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BUT, that's ancillary to the question of whether or not they needed to trade up to land Davis. I think it's pretty clear that to land Davis, the trade was required. To land a quality defender, I don't think it was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wussbasket Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 You need to see how the rest of the draft shakes out. Eagles still have 51 and 83 with plenty of good players on the board, or they could trade back from 51 and get a few more picks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TorontoEagle Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 Gannon had some HC buzz this offseason, following a bad year of defense. Let's say our D improves significantly....I would think it's a near certainty Gannon goes to be a HC in 2023. So, are we then hiring from within to keep continuity in defensive plans? Or are we "pigeon holed" into interviewing external candidates who will run a similar scheme? Or does Lowie do the dumb thing and go in a different direction altogether?

wussbasket Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 Jordan Davis changes this defense, that's what he can add. Johnson would add talent to the pass rush, but I don't feel he would be a game changer. I don't think Hamilton was in the picture, or at least they didn't have that high of a value on him. Otherwise they would have just stayed and taken either Davis or Hamilton depending on who the Ravens selected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean if he turns into Joe Burrow I think we would all be ecstatic. I don't see that happening. Certainly I am rooting for him to succeed because that's best for the team. I would be shocked if he does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Blackfish Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 43 minutes ago, Connecticut Eagle said: Would we have been better off staying at #15 / #18, keeping all our picks, and selecting Hamilton and Burks? That’s a good question, 1st and 2nd round WR’s coming to NFL are far more advanced than they were 10-15 years ago and a lot of them are ready to start day 1. Somehow the Eagles could only draft 1 that can actually contribute. No one knows how good or bad Burks will be this season, but from TN’s standpoint, they screwed up by paying Tannehill a ton of money, and probably couldn’t afford $25 per for Brown especially since they’re a running team. Playing TB this season, the Eagles saw how disruptive a monster like Vea can be on the D line, so Davis just from an athletic standpoint is good pick if he keeps his weight down. You can’t teach what Davis brings. Hamilton fills a position of need, but so does , Dax Hill or Cine, they still really need a Safety and after paying Brown a fortune, they’re probably out on Mathieu.
