Why is Brady dressed like a hobo?

BB influence.

The weaponry on offense definitely needs more juice. I'm liking Isaiah Likely or Trey McBride at TE. Nice versatile compliment to Goedert and a new element in the passing game we currently don't have. 

As long as either of those guys can run block I'm fine with another TE.

I hate 12 personnel with a TE that can't block, it just turns the formation into a slower 3 WR set.👎

The two teams in the SB have 500 yard receivers as their 4th leading receiver. The Eagles have Jalen Reagor.

No way will I be ok with a R2 TE which is where those 2 are likely to go. Day 3 pick for sure with good options there: Cole Turner is my fave (doubly so if we draft Strong to give him a familiar target), Charlie Kolar, Jake Ferguson, Grant Calcaterra, etc.

Isn’t Marlon T a NT type?  Bit light at 307 but IIRC he played some nose at USC.

I think Alim McNeil could have been the guy  - hence the spat.  The issue with Marlon was that he was getting blown off the ball, and couldn't be relied upon to handle double teams or even 2 gaps single blocked.

Wonder if Howie is gonna go after Jimmy G? I can see him doing it. 

Nahhh. If they're going the trade route I think it's Watson or Carr.

I think you can only stay on a PS for the first 2 years.

Edit - I'm wrong, starting last year you could have up to 6 vested vets on the PS

They didn't offer him a futures contract. I'd say his time here is likely over.

Stunt double might work

Put Strong's head and upper body on his legs and you have a pretty good QB.

Howie trades for Wentz as a back-up, gives him too big of a contract, then Wentz comes in for an injury to Jalen and wins the Super Bowl. Stop me if you've heard this before.

I just like the fact that our president is only picking someone for our highest court based on race lol

You think Presidents didn't pick based on race for the first 167 years of the Court?

Supreme court is a sham anyway, it's supposed to be a bi partisan body yet we all know it's anything but...

Since when? Maybe you should read a little history, Marshall was a die hard Federalist.

Yep

Devonta Smith, #1 WR, 64 catches for 916 yards and 5 TD's

Van Jefferson, #3 WR, 50 catches for 802 yards and 6 TD's

Tyler Boyd, #3 WR,  67 catches for 828 yards and 5 TD's

If this does not show you the Eagles have a QB problem, you have your head in the sand.

I think for the majority of that time it was more a result of the fact that minorities didn't have access to education (which in and of itself was wrong) in order to become qualified. So yes, they picked on race by default because there really were no qualified options other than white men. Don't really think comparing today to times where AA's and women weren't even allowed to vote, let alone become judges.

Politicians, Supreme Court Judges, et all should be forced to leave office at age 65.

No, that's ageism. 

The problem is lifetime appointments. That's why some NFL franchises are screwed until the owner dies (see Washington).

Never has been a "bipartisan body”.

I have a lot of knowledge of Likely.  My daughter knows him.  She said he was a complete and utter assbag last season...matured a little this year.  Which is standard I would hope.  He is strictly a pass catching TE.  Not projected to be an in-line blocker at all.  Good hands, good route runner...Just not going to give you anything on the line.  

Sounds likely

Trey McBride

Colorado State · TE · Senior

McBride is a big, physical tight end with outstanding hands. He lines up attached, in the slot, on the wing or split out wide. Colorado State’s entire passing offense was centered around him. He isn’t an explosive athlete, but he’s an efficient route runner who does a nice job walling off defenders and making contested catches. He tracks very naturally down the field and has made some spectacular one-handed grabs. He’s also very flexible to adjust to low balls and back-hip throws. After the catch, he is very physical and competitive to fight for extra yards. He’s an excellent inline blocker in the run game. He latches on, runs his feet and finishes. Overall, McBride doesn’t have elite speed, but he’s extremely reliable in every facet of the position.

Maybe Brady is going to unretire and sign with the eagles 😳

He must really like a tough challenge if that happens.

Being an owner of a business and being in an elected office paid for "by the people" are two different things.  Are you suggesting that owners should have their shares taken away from them after 65 years old?  Comparing the two are silly  

Yes, there should be a limit....Is it ageism to demand someone to be a certain age in order to drive or vote?  

They're very different. 

For driving, adults over a certain age may have to pass a 2nd driving test to show that their reflexes/eye sight are still good. So it's performance-based and not age-based. That's the most "fair" system.
