I didnt know. Because Im not a creep who keeps track of what everyone's family is doing. I dont think I have enough time in a day to look up what Runyan's family is doing. I would never even think of it.

We are all old enough now, to see a ton of former players sons playing in the league. There were a bunch in the last few drafts. You have Joey Porter Jr and Marvin Harrison Jr cast as all-stars in the big 10 right now. We have Asante Samuel Jr in the league looking excellent. There are a whole bunch more off the top of my head, and tons more if you cared to look it up. Its really probably too many to even keep track of.

Who really cares enough to try?

It’s statements like this that really makes it hard for me to take what most of the blog posts seriously. Runyan is an Eagles legend, how do you not know that it’s his kid playing in the NFL.

Because I don't follow the lives of retired Eagles? And I don't follow other teams. I never claimed I was an expert. And I don't watch that much college. 

Who is Shaq Leonard? Darius Leonard you mean?

It is statement like that they show a bunch of folks only watch the Eagles, but post like they know so much about the NFL.  Confirmation below.  The pillars are the same.

I will remember this next time you give your opinion about the draft.  Major program, former Eagles kid who was linked to the Eagles in the pre draft process.

They did lose after dogging the Eagles for squeaking out a win against the Lions.

Wentz has 8 passing TD so far.  He's been streaky as he usually is but he's going to put up some impressive numbers this year.

Yup. Impressive numbers with some baffling stupid plays/mistakes sprinkled in.  Commanders receiving corp looks solid at least.

Where did I post I'm an expert on the NFL? I watch allot of games but I don't dig into them like the Eagles. I never claimed to be a roster expert on the entire league. I know a bit more about the NFC East than the rest but that's it. I don't write articles or post blogs or anything like that. So don't really know what the issue is? I have a full time job and go to school full time. So don't really want to take the time to be an expert either.

He was hardly ever spoken about. There were other OL with former player dads in this draft. I think 2 others that I can remember. But dont recall Runyan.

You take yourself way too seriously.

Packers might have the worst WRs in the league. That team never gives Rodgers any more than the bare minimum with help.

 No, people in here ( pillars ) and others do that, and then don’t know the most simple things.

I do.  This place tries to act like it is the upper echelon of knowledge, and misses things that are so simple.  I really believe 75% of the blog only watches Eagles games.

you are a little to taken aback that not everyone shares your infatuation with Runyan and his kid. His kid is not even on the eagles. Makes sense no one is really tracking him.

Fields with zero awareness there. Not that he was going to get the first down either way.

Can’t put my finger on it with the Raiders. Through multiple coaching staffs, towns, players - they always find a way to disappoint. I know it wasn’t Carr’s fault today but he’s the only constant across all of it the last 8 years. Well, of course aside from Davis.

He is a former Eagles kid who played at a major program.  
 

 

Carr hasn't looked good this year, but he's in a new system that can be a lot for anyone playing in it for the first time. I think the Raiders will be a very good team by the end of the year still.

Pretty frustrating watching Rasul Douglas turn into something. Why can't we develop players on the defensive side of the ball. Hopefully once Gannon goes we can maybe hand the job to Fangio. Definitely do not want to see Dennard get that job, he's done nothing to earn it.

not that meaningful to really anyone but you. Didnt even turn out that way for little Runyan himself.

But it was talked about by multiple Eagles sites during the draft process. Did you know Asante Samuel Jr was Asante Samuels kid ??

I don't think Carr isn't anything that great, personally.

Sorry any draftnik knew him. Fine if casual folks didnt but with as much as you opine on the draft you have no excuse
