Feels kinda sad to say this but this is what gives Burrow such an edge in todays NFL, he isn’t on social media so he doesn’t see or care about all the comments and opinions. 

 

That’s a letdown.

Every time that I do one of these, I ask myself...."Will Howie really invest in a quality LB early?"

 

 

If the Eagles think Taylor really has a future, Dean makes no sense.  Rather see a good sized MIKE that can handle a G or C at the second level.  I really am not a fan of London for the Eagles.  He looks like an OPI flag waiting to happen.  As Smith should be the #1 WR, I would like a decent sized WR with the quickness to play some slot.   Not seeing that in London.  I think McDuffie is overrated and Jones is too short.  Great returner though.  I would give this draft four Howies.

Jones for me would be a Maddox backup and primary KR/PR. I agree, I want a WR with some size and quickness. Ross, Pierce, Watson, Pickens, etc. 

I'd put that mock of us getting Hamilton, Stingley and Lloyd at a 0.0% chance of happening.

I feel like after so much premium draft capitol has been invested in WR over the last few years, we might be more likely to get a mid-late round slot type who can return. Like Kyle Philips or Velus Jones. Maybe if the eagles feel like they need to fix the other starting WR position once and for all you get Chark in free agency.

Big UH fan.  Liked Jones and his returns were dynamic but UH has had a lot better CBs through the years.  Not as good as Scott and I think in a pinch Vincent would be better although I do wonder if the Eagles are looking at Vincent as a S.

I was looking into Jones a bit since I knew nothing about him. Was disappointed to read that in addition to being 25 in May, he’s also raw. 

Aside from the QB issue, which just needs to be tabled for a little while, I really want to come out of this draft with a dangerous edge rusher.  That's where the value is.

Ojabo and Jermaine Johnson are two guys who have all of the upside of top 5 pick type edges, but will fall in a deep class (and due to some polish issues).  I want one of them in round 1.

Then...I want a speed WR in round 2-ish to be what Reagor was supposed to be.  Someone who can get deep...or someone with the quicks and moves to force them the ball at the LOS and turn it upfield.  Luckily, the round 2 range seems to be a sweet spot in this draft (and in many drafts) for that type.

OL...they need one eye open at all times.  Don't force it, but if the right guy is there, pull the trigger as soon as round 1 or 2.

when hes that fast, thats probably a big reason why he is ranked so low on prospect lists.

Bo Melton is another late round guy, from Rutgers who can return kicks and punts.

So I didn't watch the Pro Bowl, saw some highlights.  Were there any to the ground tackles?

I think Chark should be a target yes. Here’s my dream:

 

Sign Chark, resign Nelson, Scott, McLeod and Ward. Your 53 could be:

QB: Hurts, Minshew, Sinnett

RB: Sanders, Pierce, Scott, Gainwell

WR: Smith, Chark, Watkins, Rambo, Ward, Reagor

TE: Goedert, Whyle, Stoll

T: Mailata, Lane, Dillard (trade bait), Driscoll

G: Dickerson, Seumalo, Parham, Herbig

C: Kelce, Lindstrom

DE: Graham, Hutchinson, Sweat, Jackson, Gunter

DT: Cox, Hargrave, Wyatt, Williams

LB: Muma, Beavers, Taylor, Edwards, Bradley

CB: Slay, Nelson, Maddox, Booth, McPhearson, Gowan

S: Pitre, McLeod, Epps, Joseph

ST: Lovato, Elliott, Siposs (though would love Araiza)

Big youth injection along with talent and speed. Also a true succession plan for the Oline and Dline. 

I loved Chark in the draft, love him in FA too...but I think he only makes sense if we bring in a win-now QB.  Otherwise, I'd rather draft a rookie with a longer runway to the horizon.

Chark won’t turn 26 until September. Not like he’s 28-29.

26 seems young...but if we don't bring in a new veteran QB...that's going to be 1-2 years, at best, to find one.  Then 1-2 years to develop him.  Suddenly, Chark is 30 before someone is even looking at the #2 WR  downfield in this offense...at that point, we are already sending him a $9m check to play for the Jets after we took a cap hit to release him.

Campbell seems to talk to good sources. But I dont know how much he has done that yet. Maybe he was at the senior bowl. But the combine will be big for him. Its too early to make much of any of thsee mocks. But holy hell what a scenario we have unfolding in this one!

Get those 3 defensive players in the first would definitely give Gannon a little more to work with.

If Hamilton drops that far and Howie pases on him I may burn something down.

Then to get a LB in the first as well would be bizarro world as eagles don't draft safeties and LBs in the first.

Not a big fan of stingley rather get a DL.

I hear you there. I’d only do a 2-3 year deal.

Thats pretty nice. Unfortunately theres no chance Beavers is there in round 4. But, still nice.

I dont really care for your RB pick either, but does he return? Im trying to figure out our returner situation.

Pierce is a bull with the ball in his hands. And he’s got low mileage. Reminds me a lot of Doug Martin. I’m a big fan. And yes I agree some of these slots are improbable. Replace Beavers with a D’Marco Jackson and it still holds true. I’d train Gainwell or Rambo up to handle return duties. I mean after all the rules changes, the days of Dante Hall or Devin Hester are over.

You keep posting the same unrealistic scenario.  You are never moving up to 2 for 15 and 19.  But even that's more realistic than getting a future 1, a 2nd, and two other picks for moving from 16 to 18.

Yup I think they need to come away with an edge in the first, I like both the guys you mention,at 6'5" they both have good length which the eagles lack at DE.

Im waiting for you and TEW to start gushing over Christian Watson in the draft.
