Years of exposure to Belichick marrying years of exposure to AR.  

That reads well on paper, at least.

How do we think Hurts would fare at the Senior Bowl?

He didn't fare too well at the Senior Bowl he went to -- but the Eagles drafted him a round early anyway

Why would that matter? They could leave anytime they want

They could but it looks bad to leave your favorite team and start liking another....or is that normal in today's world?

I like him. Reminds a little bit of former Eagle/Raider Derrick Burgess who I loved. 

I was thinking Sam Williams reminded me of Burgess, but maybe that’s a lazy comp because both went to Ole Miss.

I mean, we're Eagles fans, bleed green until the end, but I can't imagine Washington fans worrying about it too much

I mentioned him a few days ago. Would love to bring him in. Kids going to be good, IMO.

Depending on where he ends up, he's going to be very good.

Alright...we've debated what the Eagles should do at QB.  Let's add a unique layer.  Forget what they should do at qb, what should they do with the rest of the roster and draft given each direction they might take at QB?

Rodgers/Wilson/Watson: Sign DJ Chark.  That gives us a WR corps that these QB's would actually envy.  We need an immediate upgrade at WR for win-now QB's.  With any of these QBs, we presumably would not have much draft capital left for 2022.  What we do have, should go best defensive player available.

Hurts: Roll draft capital into 2023.  As much as possible.  At a minimum, we'd need two 1's and two 2's for 2023.  Draft best defensive player or best OL available with the premium picks we do use.  Then drink heavily on Sundays.

Drafting a QB: All QB's in this draft, love them or hate them, should watch and learn for a minimum half of 2022, if not all of it.  Trade Hurts for whatever we can get.  Start Minshew, not because he's a better option than Hurts, but because he'll run a more pro-style offense for our rookie draft pick to transition into.  This scenario presumably still leaves us with 2 first round picks.  Draft BPA without forcing anything on defense.  The rookie QB will have a learning curve, so we are in no rush.  Grab a WR for him to grow with, stack up the OL, or finally address defense.  Any option works.  BPA straight through with the other picks.

Just defining what short term might mean.

I had Kinnard pegged as a potential RG here for quite awhile.

Pretty funny, Howard Eskin was on WIP just now saying the Eagles weren't tanking the 2020 game against Washington and were actually trying to win it the whole time. According to him Doug promised Sudfeld the entire second half to showcase his talent since he was a free agent to be, but went with Hurts for the 3rd Quarter to win the game, and then only went to Sudfeld because he practiced all week and was promised playing time. 

 

Eagles trying hard to distance themselves from Tankgate with that explanation. 

That actually  makes sense.  There was always discussion before the game that Sudfeld would get some playing time.  That sort of thing is why the franchise is like by players. I was surprised that Sudfeld didn’t get the whole half.

I would think some are going to jump ship.  Many have grown up thru the 80s and 90s being Redskin fans and the history of that franchise.  Now they're calling themselves the Commanders?  

If the Eagles had to change their name I'm not sure what I'd do.

Nike and the "Commanders" took 24 months to come up with that name and abomination of a uniform.  Fan changed the name to Warriors and edited a throwback.

I'd  stay, unless we went with the pigeons or something. So now I see your point lol

 

Eagles got best contract extension (Mailata).

Unsurprisingly, Saints had the worst extension (Taysom Hill)

 I still like the Potato Skins the best.  They get to keep the "Skins” as part of their name.

I've thought this is the most likely outcome, even before the end of the season. I'm not as high on Strong as others are, but I think if they don't get a QB this offseason they need to have a competition with Hurts and Minshew.
