I think I kinda get his argument? He's just explaining it in a really stupid way

It's armchair BS based on some predictor model. Let's make some assumptions since that predictor surely is.

Eagles have Jameson Williams and Jordan Davis way ahead of everyone else on the board. Jermaine Johnson isn't considered because of character, Kyle Hamilton is slightly downgraded due to positional value. Williams come off the board at 12.

Let's say you take your 55% chance and you're wrong. Hamilton at 13. Davis at 14. Would you feel good about the lesser player at 15 and the day 3 picks?

I wouldn't.

    If Howie wanted to pander to the fan base, he'd be better off drafting someone from Alabama 

    I'd expand it to the SEC, in general.

    The best pick of that trio was a round 1 RB, lol

    love how defensive you and mike are of your little mock draft section :lol:

    thats lowest common denominator daft talk type stuff. If you know as much as you think you do come where people read posts and share the knowledge you have. 

    I know you posted a bunch in here. But, just saying- thats the last place anyone is looking for knowledge on the board.

    all that draft knowledge you possess & you make no money from it lmao

    When do the running backs start going off the board?  Some good talent that's going to drop.

    However I already told you I dont do as many as them. And you could go back through this thread and count if youd like. Youll find a bunch of people did many more than me. 

    I'm gonna guess you posted at least 20.  I didn't post any, so there.  BTW, I'm in the mood to be in a pissing match for the next 90 minutes.  Fire away.

    there is really an unfathomable amount of knowledge that exists, and people possess but do not monetize. There is literally no point in your post. 

    There are even other people on this board who would claim to be a better draft nerd than me, and they dont monetize it either. 

    Thats pretty much what you call a hobby. Hobbies are normal things. Whats funny about a hobby?

    Oh I don't agree with him. He's basically suggesting Eagles should do what resulted in them panic picking Marcus Smith.

    Johnathan Abram would entice me.  What would it cost to go get him?  Believe he was top 25 in tackles last year

    No there’s no way anyone in here is better than you, remember?

    100%. Eagles have gotten burned on so many damn 55% chances.

    I think it depends on who’s on the board at 51. I Can’t image if Obajo or someone like mafe is there that they do trade back. But i kind of think a lot of guys people really want in the second (like a booth or Gordon) are going before 51 which will make it easier for the eagles to trade back to like 55-62 range and pick up an extra pick or picks

    I guess it depends on what month I started. I consciously decided to try to limit it to about 1 per week so as not to overload this thread the way others do. In fact, I made a separate thread in TATE for them to be posted in instead, and a mod locked that thread. Check that out for yourself. Proof of my conscientious effort to NOT post too many.

    not clocking links. those could be viruses. 

    NEPA is eagles territory. The point that eagles games get bumped for steelers games as proof that most of PA isnt philly market was off the mark.

    Bad idea. Goal should be 3 starters + Brown out of this draft. Wanna trade down from 83? Fine. But aim for a needle mover in round 2.

    Yup.

    I thought more than Pickett would go.

    I think 2nd round is going to be good value for a lot of those qbs that sone thought would go first.

    If there is one of those guys that drops to the 3rd I could see Howie taking a QB there.
