Tuli Tuipulotu , might be the most underrated DL in the draft . His get off is crazy , really strong player . He played all across the line , lot of 5 T . I think he is a first rd talent , for sure a top 30 , will fit any D .

I don't but I've been very Negladelphian post Super Bowl.

I don't think it's likely considering how many new faces there will be on defense and likely learning a new scheme.  Especially given how good the rest of the division is. We will see what happens in the offseason but my early guess would be the Giants if they add some talent. 

If we’re about to make Hurts the highest paid player in the division, he better be able to win us multiple division titles with lesser defences. That’s the deal.

Why would any of us feel otherwise?

Because a lot of people buy into that NFCE nonsense. I'm hoping to put it to bed.

I like your thinking.  The overthinking by others is indeed nonsense.  It would be nice to put an end to that string of events.

Is there a requirement to interview minority candidates for coordinator positions like HC?  Because otherwise I feel like they are passing on this Jim Leonard or he is passing on them if they interviewed him yet are still going to proceed with doing two zoom interviews with Vance Joseph on Wednesday and Thursday. 

I think they had requested to interview Desai but I don't know if Seattle agreed.  I would imagine Joseph's interview is genuine interest.

Offense is relatively the same besides probably playcalling from Johnson. Defense is going to be a big change. Commies sticking with Heinicke doesn't seem like a good idea

Jones is asking for a lot of money so they either pay and hamstring the team or try and look for a new QB

I think I saw that Dallas is planning to move on from Zeke

We could probably still take the division with this offense alone

Pretty sure the Redskins are going with Sam Howe at QB.

So Slot WR, RB, RB with the first 3 picks. 

Woof.  Next years schedule is brutal.  Even the bad teams are the fashionable teams to be good next year.

I fully expect the Eagles to win the division.  DAL will take a step back with McCarthy calling plays; more pressure on him.  I’m not a supporter of the head coach calling plays in-game under any circumstances.  The whole division will drop 1-2 in the W-L records because they’re playing the AFC East and NFC West divisions next season — although NFC West doesn’t look great at the moment.

Eagles first-place schedule has them playing Kansas City (likely Week 1), the Vikings, and Bucs.  Giants and Commanders are still also-rans until they find a QB.

Guarantee:  the Eagles will not face a single team in the playoffs next year that they do not face in the regular season.

The Eagles will have a tougher schedule but are still going to be the most talented team in the division.  The big change on offense will likely be at RB and OC.  Sirianni has the same role and I think the in game adjustments to the run game were handled by Stoutland.  So the passing game adjustments will be a question.  I think the defense is definitely more up in the air.  I imagine 2 out of 3 big impact players will not be back, CJGJ, Hargrave and Bradberry.  My guess is they will re-sign Epps and Edwards.  Cox may be done and I don't see Suh or Joseph returning.  It's still a veteran group and I don't think a new scheme will be a problem is they keep the same assistants.  

I would think the Cowboys would rival the Eagles but Schottenheimer isn't an upgrade at OC. I don't think he's good.  I would imagine they will add talent at receiver.  Pollard and Schultz may leave through free agency.  They have more offensive line questions going into next season. 

The Giants have a big decision with Jones.  They either go all in with him or move on from him.  It seems like they want to re-sign him but I am not sure how that gets them anywhere if they do not add talent at receiver. They also have to decide on what to do with Barkley.  This isn't an easy offseason for them. 

I have no idea what the Commanders will be like under Howell.  They have big holes on the o-line and questions at RB and TE. They have 2 good receivers.  The strength of the defense is the line but they may lose Payne.  It doesn't seem like they have much else on defense besides Kendall Fuller.  I can see them making a playoff push but they don't have a great roster and have a lot of questions.  

I just had a lunch break dream that the Birds traded pick 10 for Vita Vea.

Not a bad thing necessarily though, right? They pick up some combination of potential starting CB, DL/Edge, RB, and LB in the draft. Hopefully land Leonhard as DC. Hurts and the entire team get to grow through a tough season and establish a new identity on D. They make the playoffs but without as good a record but more capable on both sides of the ball.

Yea, $14,460,000 that would all count towards to 2023. I don't think Howie would want to limit himself with that. 

There will still be time to work on a long term deal before they are stuck with that #

Great player but how to pay him? They need to use the two first potentially with trade backs to add CB/DL/Edge/OL that can plug into the starting rotation on the cheap. With the $$$ to pay Vea would be awesome.

I do it just for pick 10 and some lower pick swaps and not even think about the rest. Just trade down from 30 and stockpile the rest of the draft.

I think Bucs would demand more because they’re the kind of silly team that doesn’t accept my expert GM trade proposals.

Ill refrain from speculating until i see if kelce retires.

 

Why has no one discussed O’Cyrus Torrence as a first round pick for us?

That dude at RG in this offense would be like Thanos getting the final infinity stone.

Not to mention…despite the fact he doesn’t have OT experience…if he leaned out a bit, he might actually project better as an explosive, man-handling RT in a couple years than any of the tackles in this draft.

But it still counts on the books and prohibits them from making other moves until there is a deal.

Mainly because Jones/Paris/Skronski all have Guard versatility and are just better than him.
