It's the NFL

And within the NFL, they’ve been extremely mediocre.

@EazyEaglez Howie's record since the SB.

Browns don’t have a SB, but the Eagles do. For the record I don’t like this idea that I’m some huge Howie supporter, because I’m not. 😂🤣😂

Take out the 2020 season which was an outlier where the whole team, especially the OL, was decimated with injuries, and the record is a lot more respectable - with every season in the playoffs.

Seeing how the Eagles keep losing FO people and how Howie doesn’t have a contract extension yet is it possible the Eagles might be considering a replacement from within?

In one thread you'll say Howie is going nowhere, then here ask if they're planning to replace him.  You just like throw ideas out there huh?  :lol:

No, Lurie isn't planning on replacing Howie.  The fact that people under him get jobs elsewhere reinforces to Lurie that Howie is great and hires great people.  He said so last year.   It's not his fault he doesn't draft well, other teams are taking the players Howie wanted so what dya gonna do?

I’m just asking the question, but it is interesting Howie hasn’t been extended…yet. Heck you should be happy he isn’t. I highly doubt he goes anywhere, but him not having a contract to this point beyond 2022 is something to keep an eye on.

Now that you said it, watch them announce it...Lurie does his annual press conference sometime in the spring before the draft.

Yep, I’ve been saying for the past couple of weeks the exact same … that you can expect an announcement coming sometime over these next few weeks that he has been extended.

I feel like you’re blaming me for his extension. 😂🤣😂

It's like when an announcer jinxes the game. "He hasn't thrown an interception in 14 ga--aaaand, there's an interception."

So we’re losing one of the guys responsible for putting together the scouting reports on Reagor, JJAW, and Dillard.  BFD don’t let the door smack ya on the way out.  

Wasn't the scouts who favored Jefferson and the coaching staff who favored Reagor?

Eazy eagle is all over the map on this one. I think he is a Howie spy. I'm surprised he didn't get an extension after @EazyEaglez made him executive of the year!

We'll never know with any degree of certainty.

Does it matter? neither one of them have the final say and Howie ignores scouts and makes the coaching staff play who he wants to be played.

I didn’t make him exec of the year. I said he should be in the running. You guys started talking about the 2020 draft tho. 😂

Your view of the man is abject at best. He's a horrible draft coordinator, however, you can't say he hasn't put together some amazing deals over the years. He is the man responsible for putting together our Super Bowl roster. A lot of teams try that and fail. He also didn't put us in a situation where we'd be paying for that one trophy for the next 10 years

Aren't we though?

not necessarily. We are 4 years removed from our SB and we have 3 #1 picks this year, and it's not even a result of missing the playoffs last year. His achilles heel, to me, is that he sucks at drafting. I think if we get some solid picks here we can go even further in the playoffs next year.

Hmmmm....   the first bolded thing is sort of negated by the second bolded thing, is it not?   Making the third bolded thing a bit of a stretch.

it can be, yes, however, with some careful thought, he might get it right. I honestly think most of his fails are drafting skill positions, If it were me, I'd draft trench players. Not very glamorous, I know, however, wins still happen in the trenches.

Danny Watkins, Derek Barnett... also trench players that he missed on.  

 

I'd add in, he made plenty of other mistakes with regards to Free Agents and trades in recent years.  So, he's got a lot of mistakes to atone for.

maybe, but unless we're going to swap out the last 20 years with the Patriots, I'll take what we got.
