It makes more sense when you remember the Eagles have said in the past they would like to take a quarterback in every draft as a potential lottery ticket. because if you can develop them, you can get some value back. Just have to hope they aren’t Clayton thorson lol. As a 6 round pick might as well go for it and try to develop him into a competent backup so don’t have to sign a mariota type in 2024

Eagles traded pick #191 to Tampa Bay for a 2024 5th round pick.

HOWIE SEASON

They can't help themselves when it comes to picking a QB.  First pick that I've said yuck about because they can probably just get an UDFA to do the same thing.

You guys are such nerds. A smart QB with even marginal upside is a good pick.

That worked so well last year ...

6th Round not much better lol. Todd Centieo literally can fill in for Hurts as a similar skill set without changing the offense.

They must not be happy with Hurts 

TATE would have loved this pick 3-4 years ago.

A traditional, quick processing, accurate, big arm QB from a pro-style system.

Times sure have changed.

Howie turns two sevens into a 5th

traded pick 191 to Tampa for a 5th rounder next year. 

Eagles traded 191

Just traded 191 for a 2024 5th

We're not getting Witt are we...

Except their first pick.

I'd take Anthony Richardson

The McKee pick is a queef in an otherwise passionate and successful night of lovemaking.

We waited a long time for that pick to take Tanner Sucky McKee, and then traded away the pick that we might have done something exciting with. Now we wait for our final pick, all the way at 249...

Why wouldn't the Texans or whoever traded that pick to us just take that deal in the first place? 🤣

That 2024 5th will be traded for a 2025 4th next year to get the Swift pick back.

Would rather not...

Really thought Hutchinson from Iowa State with Nick’s connections there would be the choice. I get the thought process behind it, but was hoping for some WR depth. 

Can’t win on every pick guys. 

So we gave two 7th's to get a 6th, then traded a 6th to get a 5th next year?  I'm ok with that.
