If you mean five dollars a pop for every time @EaglePhan1986 pops @Bacarty2 before its over, I don’t think five dollars will keep the board running for very long

I’m really not that tough 

Final

I’ve never thought the starters are going to play. 

 

I think Hurts should have at least one drive

That's nice, they let Bacartys son on the field 

Over/under 0.5 times Hurts takes off tonight

Phillies @ the Mets & The Birds’ first pre-season game - should be a fun night for Philly sports.  

Will the blog be able to recover when on the first offensive play Jalen goes deep to AJ for a TD?

We know you’ll be declaring 50 TDs and 5,000 yards

Eagles line flipped this afternoon and are now underdogs. I'm betting word got out starters are barely playing if at all. 

Must have found out Carson Strong is playing three quarters.

I hope he does, but I'm not counting on it. Just like the sentiment most of us share about him in general.

TD which way? The defense picking his short pass off and running it back?

In recent years Howie has made several trades during camp. Just wondering which players are potentially on the block and what’s their worth? Also what positions do you see us making a trade for? 

My meaningless opinion… 

Reagor - 4th rounder, perhaps turns into a 3 if he plays well Too much risk for the other team.

Hightower - 7th rounder, if someone is desperate for speed Desperate you say?

Dillard - 3rd rounder, I can’t see anyone giving up more which is why I think he should be kept Anything less than a 2nd Rounder is a bad deal

Minshew - 5th rounder, that’s if a team is really desperate but I feel he’s worth more to us then another team is willing to give up. Probably true

TJ Edwards - 5th rounder. If Dean looks like he could be the guy this may be worth exploring. There’s oddly some quality depth at LB, a position where you really only need 1 good player. That is a huge "If" I prefer my coffee to percolate a bit longer.

Jack Driscoll - 4th rounder. Could probably start at T or G for a handful of teams You undervalue O-Line depth ... especially given your prior thoughts on Dillard

Sanders - 3rd rounder. Is Gainwell capable of being a 20 touch player? More than likely losing Sanders next offseason. I agree Sanders is likely gone next offseason, but his FA signing will go into the Comp Pick calculations.  I prefer a year of his productivity plus a 4th round Comp Pick to moving him on and getting your projected 3rd Round pick.

Milton Williams - I can’t really put a price on him but he seems like a player with a lot of potential with no real position and buried in the depth chart. He's not really buried in the depth chart.  The four DL positions are ideally rotated amongst 8 starter quality players.  Further, Williams may be #4 at the moment, but given the age and/or contract status of Cox and Hargrave, Willimas could well be #2 behind only Davis at this time next year.

Jalen Hurts hasn't thrown a pick six in his professional career.

Good to finally get things started with some actual action against another team and some live hitting (TATE parking lot match included).

Siri will let them hit tonight?

 

 

 

 

Outside of the obvious names, I’m excited to see the depth corners, Tarron Jackson (some reports say he looks quicker), Reagor (does he look even functional), Kennedy Brooks (worth a PS spot?), Davion Taylor.

I hate to be that guy, but that actually wasn't TO's first play as an Eagle. While it was a very forgettable game, we opened the 04 preseason in New England losing 24-6. It would be his first play as an Eagle in the Linc though.

I would be totally fine with Hurts for 2 possessions, and then all Sinnett and Strong for the rest of the game. I want to see tons of Strong.

But is it really necessary to play either so soon after a concussion?

Will probably see the least of Strong tonight outside of the 3 preseason games since this is one where the starters will play.  Then there seems to be a brewing competition for the #2 spot between Minshew and Sinnett so they will both get a good amount of snaps.  I'd guess we won't see Strong until midway through the 4th tonight, if at all.

I dont think we need to see Minshew at all. He is the #2, and we know exactly what he is and what he can do. And if Sinnett wins the #2 with great performance, then Minshew should just be traded. Either way we gain nothing from seeing him play tonight.
