OT: Philadelphia Eagles (NFL): Well That Just Happened...

[FLYguy3911]

Quez is another guy with not just long speed, but a very good 10 yd split. That seems to be a priority too. This is D.K. Metcalf The Draft.

This is the draft where you have no useful 3 cone or 20 yard shuttle data.

Howie did mention 10 yard splits on his Jatavis Brown conference call.

Exactly! No one knows how to factor in this year's data. WR and EDGE seem to be the best ways to exploit that. It makes sense.

So we’re not gonna take any swings at CB?

This is not a deep CB class IMO. So it makes sense to load up on WRs heavily here.
Actually really like that approach as long as you have a plan when it comes to roster spots...

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Josh Metellus just went with Geno Stone still on the board.

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

Antoine Brooks Jr. suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuucks.

If the trend continues? Guidry.

 

[FLYguy3911]

WTF is GB doing?

 

[Beef Invictus]

Oh my God. He plays LB like one of those "defensive specialist" Wings who skates like crazy in the defensive zone and gets nothing done.

Question. Not Eagles related.

What are your thoughts on Antonio Gibson? I'm incapable of judging guys who play two positions because I always get super, super optimistic about that versatility because I figure it increases their chance of finding an NFL role. Regardless of actual skill level.

And I ignore that the multi-position nature can also indicate they don't stand out sufficiently at a single position. This has burned me on so many picks on rookies in fantasy. I learn nothing every time and get pumped every time.

 

[FLYguy3911]

Prince.

 

[Chinatown88]

Value?

 

[DrinkFightFlyers]

Has anyone thought of a good reason for the Hurts pick yet??? I'm really worried it is because Carson's injury at the end of last season is worse than we know.

[LegionOfDoom91]

Value?

Seems like a knee issue flagged him medically otherwise he would have been off the board well by now.

 

[FLYguy3911]

Value?

He's been the highest ranked player on The Athletic's consensus board for a while now. 73 overall. I'm guessing he got red flagged and this is just a dice roll.

I haven't watched him closely enough to give an opinion on the player.

Yeah, the're usually saying he's not good enough to do one thing. But not Gibson. He just makes plays. Now he's not going to be as valuable as a true WR you put on the field for 800 snaps, but Scott Turner wants guys that do what he can. Before the draft I was discussing him with a friend who coaches offense and is a Cowboys fan and his ideal fit for Gibson was Washington.

Carson is 100% healthy

Sounds good. I need interesting players like this to hope for because nothing else good ever happens.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

DJ said he thinks Watkins is like a 3rd-4th round grade guy in a normal year.

 

[JojoTheWhale]

Please let Tampa get Cole McDonald. He's not good, but god damn would that be fun.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

The Packers had to have had the worst draft right?

 

[JoemAvs]

I really like what the Eagles have been doing tonight. Somewhat salvaging the horror show from yesterday (not completely but atleast to a certain extent).

Looking at our roster, I fully expect a RB here in the 7th.

I think Benjamin is still available, isn't he?
Who else could make sense?

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Geno Stone to the Ravens.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Lol Carolina took all defensive players. First time ever with 7 or more selections made.
