Ekwonu 4.97 , he will nail the drills too

Doubt it. 

This happens every year. Unless we're getting bargain-basement prices, it's not happening.

Would love landry. I’m out on juju. Coming off the injury he had last year and really is a diva/pain in the ass off the field.

Kelce runs 40 yards downfield and blocks.  We all go wow.  Kelce is too light to be able to play OL, but he's clearly not,  because he does have exceptional speed and quickness and agility.  It matters.

It matters if you have a pulling center and most teams don't because their centers don't run 4.8s but what they do do is beat people up inside a phone booth and move people off the ball 

Kelce isn't super strong at the point, you put him head up on a 330 pound NT and he's nullified, ask the Bucs, he's best out in space where he can get out and pick off LBs and DBs but blowing guys off the ball at the point has absolutely nothing to do with how fast an OL can run 40 yards, has more to do with leverage explosiveness and strength which are better measured by other drills other than running 40 yards in a straight line

Amari would be an interesting sign. He takes games off but he’d be a huge upgrade to the WR position which is desperately needed. 

A WR that takes games off, with another WR (Reagor) who takes games/plays off with a QB who can't throw. 

 

 

Sign me up. 

Really want to draft Cam Jurgens.

So he was drafted with the last pick in the 4th round.

After his selection, there were 56 players taken.

2 pro bowlers (Hunter Renfrow - WR, Jake Bailey - P)

1 All-Pro (Jake Bailey -P)

17 have started a game in the NFL.

20 have never played a single snap in a regular-season game. 

2 DT have started at least a game for their team (Kingsley Keke, Byron Cowart)

0 DE have started or played meaningful snaps in the NFL.

Maybe that draft was not as deep as people remember.

 

It was top heavy and Howie drafted essentially a back up LT.

We probably wouldn't be able to tell if he takes games off so there's that

Sub 5 for an OL is most excellent! Means you can get out and pull or block to the second level. You're winning me over with this guy.

It means they waited and waited and then the well ran dry.

But think about the offseason Tik Tok content!

I disagree. A bad 40 time may not disqualify you from being a good OL (Frederick, Brown) but a really good 40 time is a strong indicator of being a really good OL (Kelce, Armistead, Johnson, Wirfs). I discount it for almost all the other positions but not for OL.

I'm sure there are plenty of OL through combine history that have had faster than average position 40 times and sucked.

Tony mandarich and his 4.65 comes to mind.

Torrey Smith only played one season but he bleeds green

 He took the BPA at a position of need at the time. Isn't that what we want him to do?

I would look for the Eagles to focus on EDGE, WR, and S in free agency.

The swag would be through the roof on this team. 

Wow, please tell me the Eagles didn't bring a Fisher Price hoop....

The problem is what he thinks is BPA.

Weird seeing the colors being declared as green and "black" though.  That's not the Eagles to me.  Green and Silver?

Blame Christina Lurie

Braxton Jones another OL I’m a fan of 5.03 , he will surprise in drills , good athlete

Christian Watson ran a 4.38 at 6’5”? Have to imagine he just jumped up a round or two

I do.

A player that was consistently mocked in the top ten of the 2019 NFL draft taken at pick number 22, for a team that had Jason Peters on his last legs, is NOT the BPA?

While Dillard did not work out, he is exactly what you want this team to do when they are drafting. Not get cute like they did with Reagor.
