People really aren't happy about this pick? Andre Dillard is the consensus best pass protector in the draft and probably the best LT. Getting him at #22 was a great move. I certainly never expected him to fall that far.

I get that Guard is a more pressing need in the short-term because Brooks. But there are still options. Ford isn't gone yet. There are other Guards in the 2nd round the Eagles could draft. They could always re-sign Wisniewski like they did Jernigan. Brandon Brooks will be back eventually.

I was less concerned about the Guard position than I was with getting a replacement for JP.

I was a little bit worried about giving up draft assets to move up, but a 4th and 6th aren't too bad. 6th-rounders rarely pan out anyway.

Now that I have time to think, I'mma ride with this. It's not Corey Ford who I wanted, but it's not as if we reached for Danny watkins

Be interesting what we do tomorrow
