What y’all think about moving byke if there’s a run on OL and DL ? Pick up another 2 and a 4 or something? I think they need to hit on quantity this year. Think howie or Laurie even said that the draft is basically a crap shoot. I wouldn’t be mad at Jeffery Simmons in the 2nd on that Sidney plan tbh

I'd be willing to take the Simmons gamble at 25, wouldn't hesitate at all in the 2nd.

Moving back is definitely a possibility depending on how the board shakes out, I think the mindset is you can get equal value in the 40s/50s compared to 25 after a certain run of players. That's how they viewed moving back from 32 to 49 and still getting someone they would have comfortably taken at 32 (Goedert).

Out of the first 3 picks, I want to see a DT, o-lineman & MLB

If a great player falls, take him but I wouldn't be mad at trading back in round 1 if it nets us a future 1 or 2

Some warm sports tea....Eagles have freed up more cap space but haven't signed Wentz yet.

There is a certain high priced Eagles WR and higher priced DE in Seattle I dont think will be on their teams in 2019

Draft night will be interesting....

Am i the only one who's kinda against taking a OT?

I wouldn't mind someone versatile who can play guard like Cody Ford or @NYSTATEOFMIND s fav Risner, but otherwise I'm not feeling drafting a tackle.

I have a bad habit of being all in on guys we haven't seen much of though, and I'm 100% all in Mailata.

I 1000% agree, I am still part of the Mialata mafia so why would I draft a left tackle who cant play any other position?

Now, if you draft a tackle who can play guard as a backup in case Mialata sucks, I am all for that.

I'm big on Corey Ford cause he can play OT/G.

Kelce put oher mailata big recently and in the past Wiz,Peters and Bennett have helped him and also talked him up

I feel the same way for me he got 2yrs :francis:


Wentz just gotta play in a playoff game and he will be fine here. He could stink it up in that game and still be here.

McNabb knows Philly and its fans but he is basing his standards on when he was here and the franchise had 0 superbowl wins. It is a but more laxed since we won one.

I disagree there was nothing wrong with what he said. Wentz was even hurt in college so this anit his first go around as a question to his durability I beleive it was a question on draft day. When is health his top 7. The difference is if he gets hurt this season there is no foles that ready. Even the league knew we was playing with has money when foles played. I’m with McNabb if he is hurt in this season and the next trust in Philly.... Santa Claus and Ben Simmons jumps shot wont be the only thing nikkas is Booing :ufdup:

It's kind of funny hearing McNabb talk about durability. That guy was a constant injury risk when he was playing.

I share the concerns, but there's not a whole lot you can do. We don't even know how or when exactly Carson hurt his back last season. Talented quarterbacks are too hard to find and develop to really think about moving on from Wentz now and the Eagles are still clearly committed to him. This is all just noise over things that no one has much control over.

So, anyway:

Here’s a list of every known 2019 NFL Draft prospect the Eagles have shown interest in

If anyone's interested, BLG has complied a list of draft prospects the Eagles have met with, interviewed, worked out, etc. Out of that list, I think I'd be most excited to end up with Christian Wilkins. Malik Jackson is fine and all, but could you imagine having an elite DT alongside Fletcher Cox? The havoc that D-Line would wreak. :banderas::whew::noah:
