Very Eagles like and I hate it.

Thinking Howie goes left field and grabs Gibbs at 30. Or maybe I'm just hoping he does.

They will go DL or OL at 10. They aren't likely to pick that high again for a while so they will be looking to add a blue chip talent at what they consider a premium position.

At 30 I am 99% convinced they will move down and I think they could go in a number of different directions.

Don't be shocked if Sermon gets a chance to be the recipient of the bulk of those carries.

 

Much higher chance that Sermon does not make the 53 man roster than he does getting the Sanders vacant carries.

I hate it too. Consistently having one of the best OL's in football is such a bad thing.

Trotter reporting the Eagles were given a chance to match and said no.

Seems odd they wouldn't match but not unheard of 

Banner was the same way, he'd offer what he felt like was a fair market value deal if a player turned it down that player was dead to them. Welbourne, Trotter, Damon Moore, all turned down initial offers and ended up in different teams.

The only player I remember winning the battle of contracts with banner was Westbrook. He held out and the eagles gave him a new deal.

Is Howie's job the 4th safest for GMs behind Jerry, Belichick & Veach?

 

I don't see Kraft as someone content with mediocrity.  Wouldn't be surprised to see him try to pressure BB into retirement in the next few years if they don't start looking like a contender again anytime soon.  Especially with the rest of the division all now getting better than them (pending Rodgers trade going through).

If Kelce retired, I'd be on board for taking OL at 10 or 30 because that player could fit in at RG until Lane retires.  Kelce is back and is it for 1 year?  He keeps getting better and is clearly still having fun.  Lane is here for a few more years yet too.  I'm all for adding a versatile OL at some point during the draft, just not with their top picks. 

Gonna be Murphy at 10, Ringo at 30 converted to safety

Can't be based on performance, he was a stud and exceeded expectations. Wasn't the best in run support, but good enough, and far better than Bradberry who we chose to keep. This one just doesn't make any sense whatsoever.

Bradberry is a significantly better and more proven player than CJ at a much more important position. Howie chose correctly.

I think Skoronski gives them depth at each position which they might really value.  Odds are its DE or DT just have that feeling it will be OL

Waking up today & catching up on how CJGJ has acted on Twitter about Philly + his Twitter during negotiations, I think Philly made the right call not bringing him back.

Gibbs at 30 would be amazing for this offense.

Eh, I agree. I put it 80/20 in favor of being cut, but they kept this kid around for a reason. He's going to get a chance to compete heavily in camp.

Skoronski seems like a weird 1st round fit with Stoutland.

I haven't been paying super close attention to the draft rumors. I know Kancy has risen up the boards but has he risen enough to where he could be a realistic option at 10 or with a trade down into the early to mid teens?

Pretty sure it’ll be Lukas Van Ness at 10, and a trade down at 30 for some day 3 picks.

He’s a possibility at 10

I'd say the heavy odds now are one of Murphy, Van Ness, Skoronski, Jones being the pick at 10 if they stay.

Top 10 pick on a player to provide depth for who knows how long would be a mistake IMO.  If we 100% knew that Kelce was done next year, maybe it makes more sense.  We weren't sure if he would play last year and he did.  Then this year too.  Jurgens is the RG for 2023 and moving forward until Kelce is gone.  The Eagles also have the best OL coach in the game who was at the combine leading the OL drills which gives the Eagles a head start on knowing which middle round players might fit here.

I have doubts that Gonzalez will be there at 10, rumor is Detroit loves him, but if he’s there I’m all for it

I don't think Gibbs would get past DAL at #26.  Zeke is gone and Pollard is coming off a broken leg.

With Okudah, Sutton, and Moseley...would seem odd to go CB when they have a weaker front 7.

I don’t think it’ll be Murphy, more I’ve read up on him the more I think he goes in the 20s. I also doubt it’ll be Skoronski. I think Eagles will love Tyree Wilson but I don’t think he escapes the the top 7.

Detroit taking him would be overkill. 

I forget who but someone was saying on their podcast his interviews weren't great at the combine. He was too soft spoken and didn't really have a presence about him.
