this was before the trade was made

I can rock with the trade if they felt like this draft was thin in the first round.

We stretched the capital out a couple years so we can still eat off this trade in 2024 so

overall I’m

It may not be about round 1 being weak as much as its weak for QB. I think there is alot of talent in RD2 that wouldnt have been first rounders if they came out last year. Remember alot of players coming out now, would have come out last year but didnt due to Covid

Seemed like a trade just to make a trade


Whole lotta nothing and everyone thinking Howie the smartest man in the room


Why are people saying that saints first rounder is gonna be a nice top 10 pick next year. Oh really? Aiight well go put $5000 on the saints to win no more than 5 or 6 games.. exactly

your saints lowkey got fleeced . good trade, that saints first rounder next year could be a goldmine (top 5 potential) while getting a 3rd this year still and a 2024 2nd which is trade capital if hurts isnt the guy this year.

Fleeced? Nah.
If we draft a WR and a OT then it served its purpose. Both needs for this year. We could get the 3rd best OT and the 3rd/4th best wr if things fall right. Now if they do some dumb shyt with the picks like taking one of these trash ass qbs than

If I had 5 grand to blow that I wouldn't miss in any way, I'd definitely take that bet. Much more likely than them ending up at .500 or better.

New coach. Jameis coming off a major injury. They're gonna take some lumps. They don't play in necessarily the strongest division, so there's that, but they're no doubt in a state of rebuild.

I don't mind this flip at all. Bottom line is that you flipped a 1 for a 1 and a 2, plus another pick that they'll probably end up packaging somehow.

Very low risk, high reward type of trade.

its a trade to make a trade for new orleans but if you cant see what Howie Roseman is doing than thats on you
whether he thinks he is the smartest cat in the room is irrelevant, its a good trade for Philadelphia- thats all

Yeah looking at it more, I see why the Eagles made the trade... It's something for nothing

For the saints.. absolutely pointless..

I dunno.. maybe I'm just not sure why this was such big news for us Eagles fans

good question...bc most of us knew this was gonna happen so its not surprising. But trades generally are big news-the bigger question is - will Howie maximize all this draft capital?

After last year (where it was reported he stuck closer to the board and leaned more into the scouting info) I had a shred of hope

We going undefeated this year.
Sorry to tell you that but we gotta do what we gotta do

Worth noting that the 3rd is a compensatory pick

It's basically a 4th

I'm less mad after looking at it, but I did a mock, and it just wasn't the same
