:blessed::blessed: Thank You Matt
Patricia.


Our whole offense and defense gonna look different next year.
Everybody knows our secondary is trash and our DB coach still gets poached :mjlol:

Dont Question the blessing breh. Fukking got rid of Groh, trash ass receiver coach and now the trash ass DB coach. What a great start to the offseason :wow:



Please bring in Kris Richard as defensive backs coach and pay him whatever. I dont give a fukk, he gotta come here.

The Eagles haven't drafted a pro bowl corner since Lito Sheppard and he was drafted in 2002 :wow:

Im hearing all this receiver talk but What them corners in this draft lookin like tho? @NYSTATEOFMIND

Saw a mock draft with us taking CJ Henderson out of Florida

And how y all feel about signing Chris Harris Jr. in free agency.

CJ is a good cover guy but he is too thin, he has to get stronger or he will get bullied. Although I have developed an anti pac 10 bias, Jaylon Johnson looks good, alpha type, can play man or zone...tackles well, he is a day 2 corner.

Harris is okay but he old tho, I need youth...i would do it only if the price was team friendly

I hate that the 2 of the better coaches for WR and DB are ex c00nboy coaches but i guess we need to bite the bullet

Yea, he is old tho but I think you gonna need a veteran presence in that corner room. Dont trust Sidney, Rasul, Leblanc, Avante and Douglas as the primary corners due to inexperience and youth

Darby is gone. Good riddance.

Mills could be coming back since Schwartz likes him so much but if they bring him back. I hope they finally move him to safety to replace McCleod.

Scared they gonna overpay for Byron Jones. Rather have Harris than Jones at a cheaper rate. I think u sign Harris on a 2-3 year deal with a 7-9 mill cap hit. I think it is well worth it since he can play above average at outside corner and he is still elite in the slot plus he can guide those young corners as well.

Next they draft a corner in the first two days of the draft.

Then u train Rasul, Maddox or Mills to replace McCleod at free safety.

Just for myself and other who don't know his game or name.




EDIT: those 9 minutes sold me. 6'2 220 with that speed, agility and bullish kind of running. Yes please. For those who have studied him more or watched him live... please tell me he is at least a decent route runner who at least looks like he belongs, even if he isn't polished quite yet.


He's a baby Julio

Dont trust former c00nboy players still in the sunken place. Orlando Snakedrick :scust:but Sanjay Lal and Kris Richard are the best at what they do.

If we get them, More likely than not, they gonna fix JJ and Sidney Jones. Two players we invested second round picks in.

I'm hoping there are some work out warriors that push some of these receivers down. I feel like we are guaranteed to get an impact player at 21 in this draft. Right now I am coveting Ruggs speed but don't care/know much else about him as a receiver to be really clamoring for him. But this Laviska kid... maaaaan, he looks like a must have.
Ruggs is exactly what we need. Game-breaking speed, good route-runner (could still develop in this area), tracks the ball, actually fights for the damn thing, and has great hands. He’s a lot like Tyreek Hill, without the controversy surrounding him, and he’s everything that our starting receivers are not. Only problem is that it’s not likely he falls far enough to #21. Too many receiver-needy teams, and it’d cost too much for Howie to go up and get him.

KJ Hamler is another good choice, IMO, albeit not a WR1 – which is what Wentz really needs. A bit undersized, but he’s an explosive, deep threat receiver in the mold of DeSean Jackson.

But whatever we do, just… don’t get another possession receiver whose game is based on 50/50 balls.

Now this is the first I'm hearing about him being a good route runner. I was unsure about the specifics to his game outside of world class speed. So he really is the whole package? Well damn, seems like we can't lose unless Howie figures out a way to be dumb. One of these impact players at a position of need is going to fall to us.

How do you feel about Lamb? Curious to know after the breh a page ago said he doesn't pass his eye test. I've only had to the chance to see Lamb in two games, so my opinion is incomplete.

Lamb was the only player to show up against a great LSU secondary. He's going in the top 10 to 15 fa'sho.

Undlin and our corners felt like the chicken & egg scenario, glad we're starting fresh from both a talent perspective and DB coach.

The Mcleod replacement would be Maddox. Rasul nor Mills have the range to cover single high plus Mcleod and Maddox arw basically the same size. I also think Maddox has a higher football IQ. He seems to always be where he is suppose to be.

I agree they need a vet so in that way Harris can make sense, there is a CB from Carolina that maybe solid to...i.forget his name

Thats actually a really good point, i forgot about broken Sid. First thing Sid needs to do is hang out with the olineman and get his weight up...money looks frail. I gonna watch some cowboy vids and see how Richard had his corners line up against WR. there was an ex-player, cant remember who...he didnt like back peddling corners who didnt test really well in agility (im thinking the 3 cone) bc you get outta your break to slow to really challenge the WR.

On the money post..ill add..if you want a Robby Anderson type...John Hightower can fly for a taller WR. He needs to work on route running but he us great value on day 3 if you need speed
