Tommy listed top 30 visits on Igglesblitz.com. I was surprised to see that O'Cyrus Torrence was not listed. I thought for sure Stoutland would like him.

Teams don't always have official meets with their targets. A lot of times these things are smokescreens. Don't put too much stock in who is or isn't visiting.

Pretty sure the Eagles track record aligns a lot with drafting players who have visited, especially in the early rounds.  The exception to this being Dillard.

Yup. Or they have questions/want to know specific things about someone. Some prospects are just clean enough there's no reason for a visit. It's why Will Anderson has only visited 2 teams.

Probably has more to do with how he's going to be the first non QB off the board so no reason for him to do visits with teams that won't have a shot at him.

Obviously that is going to limit his visits, but there are still teams in between Houston and Detroit he could be visiting but they don't feel the need to bring him in. And one of those teams not bringing him in for a visit are likely drafting him.

Yes, that occurred to me, but he seems like such an obvious choice and no later than round two.

Oh sure, you say that .... but Murphy, Gonzalez and Witherspoon have already become Mr. Bergstrom to me:

 

 

FWIW…

Listening to an Athletic football podcast mock draft and Robert Mays went with Van Ness at 10, and Brugler said said he’d heard the Eagle have done a lot of work on him (of course the Eagles have two first round picks so they should be). 

Van Ness is like the only guy who would piss me off at 10. There are plenty I would be meh on but not be all that upset. If they took him at 30, fine.

So we haven’t replaced Pascal as the big slot/blocker. Who are the mid to late-round guys who. An play that position?

Xavier Hutchinson was the first name to pop in my head. Who else is out there?

Cedric Tillman, AT Perry, Andrei Iosivas, Michael Wilson, Jonathan Mingo, Dontay Demus, Elijah Higgins, Bryce Ford-Wheaton...some of the bigger WR's in later rounds.

I think Tillman and Mingo will go day 2. Perry looks like a stick figure. Can he block?

This had pretty much been disproven for the Eagles year after year.  Common misconception.

Zach Berman mentioned Rashee Rice recently.

I will never get over how this was overturned.  That is a catch 10 out of 10 times.  Only reason it was overturned because the NFL didn't want golden boy Mahes going down 2 TDs heading into half.

Same here, which means get ready to be disappointed

Seems like N'Keal Harry could do that.

Adebawore strikes me as very similar to Kancey, actually -- even though one lines up at DE and the other at DT.  Both are more quick than strong.  I wouldn't hate the pick per se, but I'd prefer someone like Foskey at #30 for DE.

 

I agree about the similarity between those 2.

Those 2.  Graham and Aaron Donald. 

The Eagles could like both Kancey and Adebamore.  Both Kancey and Adebamore could be available at 30. The Eagles could think "like them both, take who is available there".

Players like that are fairly rare.  You don't see short and very fast and also heavy,  top RAS DLs all that often.   If the Eagles like that combination,  there are 2 to choose from. 

RAS compare Kancey, Adebamore  as DE
