OT: Philadelphia Eagles: 2019 Free Agency Edition

[kelmitchell]

Defensive End is a need too, to be fair. I’d probably argue even moreso than corner at this point in the draft.

I guess they dont give a damn about linebackers lol

 

[flyershockey]

After the first hundred picks, we're in crap shoot land.
I've learned never to get too excited about 3rd day picks and UDFAs.

Aren't you the guy leading the Mailata hype train? Huh.

 

[Chinatown88]

I actually like what Buffalo is doing. What world am I in?

 

[JojoTheWhale]

I'm through the Iowa game. Miller looked ok on either side against Iowa's Tackles, which is nice. On the flipside, they were completely fine leaving him 1v1 with Hockenson and he did not consistently win.

Hands aren't great. Looked out of control quite a bit, especially late. Probably gassed. He's got burst, though. I see some tools without the box yet. You could tell Iowa knew he only has one speed.

he is strictly a 3rd down guy if he gets on the field at all right now.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

No. That was Wilson. Thompson was a senior.

Oh yeah. It is what it is but it’s not an easy choice to come back knowing the health risks & longevity everyone seemingly knows now a days. For every kid that comes back & actually significantly improves their stock there’s probably more that don’t.

 

[Chinatown88]

Browns took Wilson.

 

[JojoTheWhale]

I could definitely see that. I'm on the Maryland game and there's still nothing but pinning his ears back right now.

Everything is immediately upfield and sorting it out when he sees how far he gets.

*Edit* I take this back. He looks more tentative against Maryland and that's later in the year. I have no idea.

 

[kelmitchell]

Unfortunately i think the redskins have a strong draft, but can anyone give me their honest take on the wr we took? I truly never paid any attention to him, i see they compare him to alshon but still

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

This is ridiculous and stupid. It's the 5th round, just make the ****ing pick.

 

[Chinatown88]

How is John Lynch a GM?

Sounds like your guy Johnny Abram.

Yeah. Some guys go early because they know there are things they can't improve. Just get drafted and start the race to that second contract.

 

[kelmitchell]

How is John Lynch a GM?

To me it doesnt look like hes doing so well, but he is rebuilding so we have to wait to pass judgement

 

[deadhead]

Aren't you the guy leading the Mailata hype train? Huh.

Mailata was a unicorn, but I didn't get excited until I saw him in exhibition games holding his own with 3 months of coaching.
Long shots do make it, Hicks was a Canadian college DT.

 

[JojoTheWhale]

If you give Blake Cashman 3 more inches on his arms, he's a top 40 pick. That's the absurdity of the situation. Not every LB has to shed blocks like Ray Lewis.

 

[Jtown]

Shareef Miller - MockDraftable

penn state has a world class s and c department that has matriculated itself into the athletic department. If you come out of PSU with these measurable Shareef Miller - MockDraftable i just don't know what to say.

 

[FLYguy3911]

Wonder if they'll take a QB. Rypien?

Look at this. RAS is /10.



He's not slow to react and solid but unspectacular coverage LBs are getting 10+ per on the open market. Clear LB3 for me.

But his arms are short.

 

[FLYguy3911]

Cowart to NE.

 

[Schwarbomb]

Patriots play 4D chess while everyone else plays tic tac toe.

The Iowa & Maryland games were where the guy on the other side of the line took over the game essentially. Yetur Gross-Matos who’s probably a first rounder next year.

 

[Schwarbomb]

Did they just trade back?

 

[Chinatown88]

Another punter?

 

[ponder719]

Did they just trade back?

Yeah. 163 for 167 and 246.
