Shame. Seemed a nice guy. Horrible for his family and loved ones.

Im not in the wait list cause I have season tickets, But lets just say you should hope the Eagles turn into the Lions real soon so people start dropping out. 

If I were you at this point I would save up to buy someones seat license. Sure you could get some in the 10-20k range. Or go all out and get the club seats. they are nice, I had them and my reg seats at one point. I sat in C17 right behind the away owner. I was selling my reg seats or the club seats but just wasnt worth it anymore so moved on from the club seats. My reg section was a lot more fun.

Rebuilt this team in 2021.   You’re relentless with your outlandish takes.  You think this team is built?   You’re proud that they scratched together 9 wins against a easy schedule with a bunch of back up QB’s?  And it still took the added 7th playoff spot for them to make it.  They clearly didn’t belong.   It’s a waste of time with you.  You look foolish.  

It went from totally dysfunctional to 9-8. And they had an easy schedule in 2020, playing a lot of bad QBs - for one thing, if Hurts is ranked between #17-20, that means almost half the QBs you face every year, even when they're healthy are as bad or worst than Hurts, then throw in injuries. We're always going to face bad QBs.

Did I say the rebuild was finished? Heck no. Which is why I don't want to be trading a lot of draft capital for a declining QB. I think this team is two years away from making a serious run, which includes enough depth to shrug off the inevitable injuries over a 20 game season. All adding a Wilson would do is get you one round deeper into the playoffs at best - he couldn't carry Seattle once they no longer had an elite defense, what makes you think he can carry a flawed Eagles team? Last five seasons, missed PO, lost WC, lost 2nd rd, lost WC, missed PO. And that was with defenses ranked 13, 11, 22, 15, 11 in points allowed. The five previous years, 1, 1, 1, 1, 3.

Ridder is a better gamble imho

Both Ridder and Willis will be busts. 

Willis is Jalen hurts with a stronger arm. Why do we want another QB who cant throw an accurate pass, or read a defense, or read progression? I see Ridder as the same prospect, just a bit bigger. 

Pickett or Strong are the ONLY viable options in this draft that fit what the Eagles need. If you dont have a chance at them you wait and roll with Hurts for 2022 and run the ball 75% of the game. 

We need to draft some RBs if we go that direction. I wouldnt be disappointed with drafting both Cook and Robinson Jr. Would be a nice combo. Esp with the concerns with Sanders.

Derrick Deese who was an OL for the niners?

Didn't know his kid was in the draft.

Nice job. This is pretty solid top to bottom. Not a big fan of White and Deese but I don’t know who was on the board at the time. Zappe is exactly the type of dice roll I expect to see. My only concern is no edge prospect.

I agree. And most likely won’t need to be in the first.

His only option is retiring.  I don’t see that. 

I don’t know what will happen but they may see a trade as a way to move on in a way that best helps the franchise.  The lack of a replacement is the issue.   I do think a lot of it is related to Wilson’s view of the oline talent.

Only qb i risk in the first is Strong and thats on IF his knee looks completely clean

i dont want to force the linderbaum pick. Too many good defenders we need and edge and cb will go fast

Agree. It’s not how I envision the draft going but he got solid prospects at most of his slots.

Howie even admits he tried too hard to keep the SB team together, but it doesn't change the fact that he rebuilt this team in 2016 and won a SB in 2017, rebuilt this team in 2021 and made the playoffs and has set it up for future success.

And if Hurts sucks as much as people say he does, that means Howie built a pretty good team to go 9-8 with a below average QB.

You call Nelson, Harris and McLeod a rebuild of the secondary?  (Or do you think the McPhearson, Vincent, Scott, Gowan are the rebuild?)  Taylor, Bradley, Johnson and Stevens a rebuild of the linebackers?  Williams, Marlon T and Jackson with another one year rental of Ridgeway rebuilt the DL?

Smtih alone a rebuild of the receiver corp or do you still hold out hope for JJAW and Reagor? Howard?  Jackson and Stoll.  The deterioration in pass protection from the interior of the OL (you mustn’t forget that you were critical of the OL in pass protection in the season.

Now Dickerson, if he can remain healthy looks like one piece of the OL puzzle but Brooks is gone and Seumalo has a foot injury that is probably a lis franc.  Driscoll is a nice back up but RG and soon C will be an issue.

Cox is on his last legs and Hargrave has a year left on his contract.  So "rebuilt this team in 2021”. More like got lucky on Dickerson (so far) given his love for second round gambles and didn’t blow his third round choice on an athletic project (this time) in Williams.  

You just buy into Howie’s excuses too much.  He isn’t the worse GM in the league but he isn’t the best either.  His methodology in drafting and signing players has been all over the board.  That is part of the problem.  Measuring ankles with Chip. Dream team signings with AR. Reaches to fill holes.  JJAW with Jeffery aging is no different than the old Canadien fireman.   Douglas’s success in college, abandoning the Chip athletic model.  Who knows what his analytics are now.  Attempts to get injured "steals” too high.  QB factory.  Keeping the band together. (Enabling instead of being the voice of reason isn’t a good look in leadership.)

Glad to see no one mocking Kenny Pickett. Can’t believe he let his teammates down and skipped their Bowl game just to show up at Senior Bowl. Obviously not a swagleader.

I’ve been wondering… If Kelce comes back, that would all but eliminate Linderbaum as a first-round pick for us, wouldn’t you think? As good as he is, it’s hard to carry a true backup center who doesn’t project to play guard.

I think ideally Kelce comes back and we draft our center of the future in round 3 or 4. I think Nebraska’s Cam Jurgens would make sense. He’s really athletic and could use a year of learning under Kelce. Unfortunately, he might be a center only too.  

Did anyone post this? Pretty cool.
