Credit to Epps, he hired a great agent. 

Hopefully it works, get him out of here.  Epps leaving on the first day of free agency would be a solid start to the offseason

    We took out more trash this weekend. Publicly harassing VA (who saved the EMB and is trying to focus on the technology, marketing & ad revenue) will not be tolerated. Taking a fun football me

Although 5 picks in this draft is disappointing, I think its important to keep in mind that between this and next draft, we have a lot of picks in the first 3 rounds.

So, we are going to be infusing a lot of young premium talent.

It cant all be done this year. We shouldnt be shortsighted and give up the opportunity at elite players thinking we need more picks.

Because we have an incredible opportunity to add a LOT of premium players if we stick to our board for this year.

 

I dont really mind trading down from 30, maybe. But, I take Gonzalez at 10 if he is there.

Need to see Witherspoon’s workout numbers, but I’d be comfortable with him at 10 assuming he checks out.

He seemed to show up more in the beginning of the year. He seemed to just be not a liability in the 2nd half of the year. But the big hits in run support or screen game stopped. And there werent many coverage plays.

Im a little surprised he might have a big market. 

I dont mind having him back. But there are a number of guys on his level who, if you can get them cheaper, you go ahead and move on pretty easily. I think my top choice is Rapp. But there are others.

The arm length was corrected. It’s 34+

That’s more like it 

Insane, he is a average QB

 

According to @JFowlerESPN, some around the league expect Daniel Jones contract to be a four-year deal in excess of $160 million, though parameters are still fluid. 

Dude is massive

Agree. Might be he right move to stay at 10 for either of them.

Question is, is he a brick house or a straw house???

I think Kancey is a better prospect than Davis. That said, no more DT. Enough. Just re-sign Hargrave and invest elsewhere. It's absurd how many resources they've put into that position and somehow depending on their moves/non-moves it could still be a need. That should tell you something. They have a chance to solve CB for the foreseeable future in this draft. A position they've struggled mightily to solve for literally 2 decades minus a few years here and there.

If Epps goes, CJGJ is a lock to stay. I think he’s virtually a lock anyway, but there’s zero % chance Howie let’s both safeties go.

A strong arm doesn't mean he has potential as a QB.

One of the strongest arms in the NFL with 4.4 speed, the most explosive leg movement in the history of the NFL at the position all in a 6’4” 245 pound body is the definition of high potential.

How do you want to solve CB if both Gonzalez and Witherspoon go top 9, though?  I think there’s a drop off down to Porter and Banks or Ringo.

At TE?

Is Blake Freeland a good prospect? With his athleticism I’d love for Stout to get a shot at developing him. 

Some of my winners heading into today

Tillman

Richardson

D Winters

Except for the part about being a poor thrower of the football with few starts…

I’d put the odds both go before 10 as incredibly low. So I don’t think it’ll happen, and if it does a stud edge rusher will be on the board for the Eagles. Or they could trade down for Porter Jr who I think is being underrated. He’s really good.

Banks or Forbes would be my backup plan. Ringo I don’t want in the first round. He might end up at safety anyway.

Dude needs to drop 40 pounds

Jones looks good. Ran a 4.98. Said he likes to play for a mobile QB too. Officially in play at 10 I think. I'd be fine with Petrine on the staff too, F it. He's another with a lot of experience.

Allen is nowhere near as fast.   Richardson is 10/10 RAS at QB, WR, RB, LB, S

Put Richardson in and have him run a lot.  244 pounds 4.43.  Running QBs, who are great at running.  Have them run a lot.  Win.  The Eagles did this,  the Ravens did this, the Bears are working toward this.   Richardson's passing will be good enough, along with a lot of great running. 

There's no guarantee that Richardson's passing will be good enough, fields hurts Lamar were all better passers in college.

Richardsons career completion % is 54.🤢

He needs a lot of work as a passer 

Also that style of offense has yet to have won a super bowl, Can Newton 0-1, Mike Vick 0-0, Lamar Jackson 0-0 Jalen Hurts 0-1☹️

Though to be fair Hurts Lamar and Newton were able to be competent passers as well as runners.

Fields has yet to become a competent passer, he's a RB playing QB still he was a better college passer than Richardson.

Malik Willis who was horrible as an actual QB had a better passing career in college.

It's not a guarantee Richardson will ever get to the point where his passing is good enough.

Cant be married to the position. As much as i want a top corner you then draft a blue chipper somewhere else

He has poor mechanics. Big difference. When his mechanics are in form he is an excellent passer.

And that gets to the few starts issue. Unlike someone such as Matt Jones, Richardson hasn’t had the time to improve. He’s not a RS Senior throwing sub 60% completion, he’s a RS Sophomore with 200 attempts in his entire career. There’s a lot of opportunity for improvement.
