i’m here. brought my irish butt with me
Dangit, Lamar Miller won’t get many starts in Miami.
Bacon is good. Mmmm.
Wow, Gino Gradkowski in the 4th?
When does the run on CBs occur?
Might start right now with Bolden.
The panthers war room looks like a very boring place to be.
So who’s our best prospects still on the board?
Something to recall about the Eagles…
In 2011 they got Jason Kelce in the 6th
In 2010 they got Jamar Chaney and Kurt Coleman in the 7th
In 2009 they got Moise Fouku in the 7th
In 2008 they got King Dunlap in the 7th
They will find starters or key contributors in the late rounds better than anyone.
You forgot Nate Illoa, our punishing big back.
Got Cole and Celek in 5th round and Herramans in 4th round, I see a pattern, any Cincinnati players left?
So what’s with the ‘skins taking Cousins?
Talking heads are overrating it. Think about it. They have Rex Grossman and John Beck. They need a long term backup in case RG3 gets hurt. Mobile QB’s always have a higher chance of injury. You also get a good plan B if RG3 busts.
RG3 is the man there and the Cousins pick doesn’t change that. You just need crap to talk about on day 2 and this is a good thing to push because fans understand it.
Makes sense.
They’re talking about it so much because Trent Dilfer realizes how NFL-ready Cousins is. And he’s right. He’s going to be playing against 2nd teams in preseason and he’s going to light it up and there will be some drama. Shanahan tried to get too cute with Jay Cutler and he didn’t have much success and I think he’ll do the same with RGIII. And because of this, I think RGIII will have some early struggles and that’s when the drama begins.
Unless Brandon Boykin’s leg has fallen off, I want him at this pick. C’mon Eagles!
Think Daryl Tapp comes into play in a trade here sometime?
It would be hilarious if we got a 6th for Tapp after Asante got a 7th.
Great value in my opinion right now:
Brandon Boykin, CB
Ronnel Lewis, OLB – Doesn’t fit us
Jared Crick, DT
Chris Polk, RB
Marvin Jones, WR
Rishard Matthews, WR
DeQuan Menzie, DB
Ron Brooks, CB
Cam Johnson, OLB – Doesn’t fit us
Josh Norman, CB
People like George Iloka, but I don’t and neither does Tommy.
My dream scenario right now is Boykin, Keenan Robinson, Nate Potter.
Well, there goes Robinson. Dang.
Well, the Redskins just killed one of your dreams.
Do you think Cyrus Gray is an Eagles target?
Anyone else love JMJ to the Browns? Great backup at MLB, could push for time at OLB since they aren’t too strong there.
I think it would be wise for him to be DF
Polk or Boykin?
Yes!!!!!
BOYKIN!!! YES!!!!
YYYEESSS!
Vinny Curry is elated about the Boykin pick!
Good pick…
Does this make the timing of the Foles pick not sting as much Matt?
Unbelievable draft.
People more excited about the Boykin pick than the Cox pick haha.
Can Chris Polk last to the Eagles next pick?
Good pick.
ok…can no longer complain about Foles…got the CB i wanted anyway
What do you guys know Cody Pearcy? The Eagles had a visit with him. Casserly was talking about pre-draft as the fastest player in college football. Is he a receiver, PR, KR?
WRs I want
Greg Childs
Dale Moss
Rishard Matthews
Tommy Streeter
AR can go OL the rest of the draft for all i care. love this draft
oh but get a tall TE
The amount of defensive talent we’ve added in this draft is incredible.
Cox and Curry are instantly in the DL rotation.
Kendricks could be penciled in at SLB.
Boykin could be the starting slot CB.
We literally added 4 players who will see extensive time as rookies if they pan out.
I hate how well the Giants are drafting.
NFCE has added a shitload of talent this weekend….gonna be like the good ol days
Hopefully it will be better than that… back then, all the other teams won the Super Bowl, while the Eagles never did. I’m tired of having to wait for “next year”. I want it to be “this year”!
Can Polk last a few more picks? I think he’s a great #2 option at RB.
I was really looking forward to hearing Andy Reid’s explanation on the Foles pick but he dodged it there with that joke. Totally agree with the analysis on this site, the Eagles have had a spectacular draft thus far (aside from the Foles pick). The Eagles are going to cause some headaches for opposing offenses with all those dynamic hybrid DE/OLBs.
The beautiful thing is typically we’re all sitting here saying “great D-Line and secondary”, BUT where is the beef in the middle. This year we have that beef in the middle.
Mean midgets on the outside and the big man inside.
Speaking of secondary… why is Iloka still sitting on the board? Is he considered “too big” or what?
Wouldn’t mind seeing…
Chris Polk, RB
Rishard Matthews, WR
For some reason I’m thinking a developmental tackle would be a good pick here soon.
ok RB time
Iggles_Phan
I personally think Iloka is a late rounder. Didn’t like the perceived value of him at all. I put him in the Top 100 projection, but don’t care for him.
Thought he looked bad at the Combine. Not my cup of tea.
If someone wants to take a flier on him here that’s fine, but I never saw the hype.
I’ve been watching him sit on Mayock’s list and heard Greg Cosell talking about him… It just seemed strange that two guys who study a ton of tape are so high on him, yet he is still sitting there.
I think Polk is the best option, but Andy is probably going through some sort of withdraw trauma with not having selected an OL yet… A Todd Herremanns-type developmental guy makes sense, but its hard to predict those guys.
Only problem with taking Polk is he’s a workhorse type. Doesn’t really fit us. Of course, that hasn’t stopped us in the past.
I do wonder if they take Iloka.
Huge UW Husky fan over here. Apparently Polk has a degenerative shoulder issue, which has caused him to slip this far. Outside of his freshman year, he never missed any games because of it. Really sad to see him fall like this, he was an absolute baller.
Chris Greenwood was the kid I tweeted a few weeks ago that the Lions, Rams, Eagles, Patriots and Cowboys were really into. Detroit just took him. Good player.
This could be the tackle from Colorado too.
Senio to ‘Zona. Nice pick.
Danny Coale to the Cowboys. Eagles did have interest in him.
There’s your OT.
Tackle to groom. dont even care at this point. this draft class is great
I like the idea of having a different style back to complement McCoy.
Matt, what can you tell us about Dennis Kelly? NFL.com doesn’t even show his height and weight.
Dave just said “even Lawlor, get him” lmao
What does “even Lawlor, get him” mean? I miss the context?
he was asking for someone with any knowledge of the OT. was in the contaxt of “Can we get Tony Pauline on the phone? Even Lawlor, get him”
That kid is enormous. 6-foot-8, 321 pounds. Pretty athletic too.
Draftcountdown.com has his height and weight. 6’8″! and 321lbs. I thought Mudd liked smaller OL. This guy doesn’t really fit that bill. He’s HUGE!
Here he is at his Pro Day…
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EcrQr04sgzc&feature=player_embedded#!
WOW! He’s the skinniest 321 lb man I’ve ever seen!
Dave just said that Mudd likes this kid. I defer to Howard. (Good thing our QB of the future is 6’5″, if this kid could develop into a starter.)
I’m willing to give Howard Mudd any OL he wants on the 3rd day of the draft after all of the defensive talent we added.
Foles seems to have his head on straight. going to be curious to see him at camp. with a year or two in the weight room, who knows…
I’m willing to give Mudd any OL he wants, regardless of virtually anything else. He made Evan Mathis into a great OG, he turned a 6th round rookie into a solid C – and all of this without a full offseason to really work with these guys. Imagine what he could do with these guys with all the minicamps, etc.! The OL is something I have no concern about for this season – even with the loss of Peters. I think that Mudd has time to get everything tightened up.
Have to figure the Nickel backers will be Ryans and Kendricks, right?
Demeco didn’t do nickle because of the injury last year. Casey is still in that mix with Rolle and Chaney probably.
I think Rolle will be there somewhere…
I think Mayock wants to hurt Eisen over this Tebow thing.
McNutt.
Austin Powers couldn’t have come up with a better bunch of team names than Dixon, Cox, and McNutt. When do we get Peters back?
Missed out on Fugger, though.
We have the All-Penis team!
Tommy, Matt,
In the Blog we discussed Bryce Brown a bit, I know he was a HS phenom that kind of fell off the wall in college. (Sounds like a bit of a prima donna. Your thoughts?
Eagles signed RB Chris Polk. I’m a student at UW and a huge Husky fan. I’ve seen some articles mention he has attitude problems…this is the first I’ve heard of any attitude problems from CP. He’s an awesome kid. Unfortunately he has shoulder issues (I’ve seen degenerative thrown around a couple different sites). He missed time his true freshman year, but after that, never again. He had shoulder surgery prior to this year, but he came back week one and had his most productive season. Also worth noting he’s UW’s 2nd leading rusher of all time, short of the top spot by a few yards, despite having played one less season than #1 (Napolean Kauffman).
I hope he pans out. He’s a baller and an awesome kid.
Rated #2 in the Huddle Report this year. Way to go guys!!
