E.P-Shore says the consensus pick for the Birds @ #8 is;

2016 NFL Mock Draft: Everyone thinks Ezekiel Elliott is going to the Eagles

I love Zeke and I think he would absolutly gell on the Eagles team. I know most think 8 is way too high and I think I would agree. However, if that was the pick, I would have a happy face knowing that we will have a stud for years to come. Just my opinion.

 

[mall3013]

I'm becoming more interested with the 8th pick. I've tried different simulators, and studied several mocks up to this point. One thing I have noticed is that it appears teams in front of us like the defensive studs Ramsey, Bosa, Jack, etc. I'm assuming this is how it's going to go for the draft. (Note:We stay at 8).
1) Tunsil- Titans
2) Wentz- Browns
3) Bosa- Chargers
4) Ramsey- Cowboys
5) Jack- Jags
6) Stanley- Ravens
7) 49ers is the tough pick here. Do they go QB or elsewhere? Goff may be the guy here? I hope not. I think Goff is an ideal perfect fit in Philly. If he is gone, trade the 8th and move back imo. Maybe Zeke is still on the board during the 10-15 range?

If the Niners deal Kap they are almost definitely taking a QB.

Myles Jack, if he's available. No brainer. He could probably take the place of Kendricks, or better yet, use Kendricks as trade bait.

I have Jack pegged at 5 Jags.

Sorry, missed it. Hargreaves then.

Gabbert was better than kaep anyway.

I'm having a hard time picking between Elliott and Treadwell. I'm leaning toward Treadwell, as I don't think we've ever had a Wr like him since T.O., and I think he may become better than T.O. eventually. He looks to be a better Dez Bryant, plus if gets to #10, the Giants will team him with OBJ, and we'll have to cover that tandem for the next 10 years!

 

[old duke]

Also, if we gt Treadwell, we could look to next year for a stud RB, and the guy I think we all like is:

Christian McCaffrey, Stanford. He is a jack of all trades - a special athlete and a class act to boot.

Ezekiel Elliott Is The Only Offensive Player The Eagles Should Target

 

[Frizzle]

I'll be quite disappointed if they draft a RB at number 8. Way too much of a risk, for such a high draft pick.

 

[old duke]

There is no risk with Zeke, but I also want Treadwell considered. Both of these guys are top of the draft caliber players, and will give the Eagles a dilemma to choose between:
Elliot
Treadwell
Stanley
Mack

These are the only players I would want @ #8, barring a surprise choice of course, like Ramsey.
At least one of these will be available at 8.

 

[mall3013]

More of a reason you don't pass this guy up just because he is a RB. I think many of us will be kicking our own ass for years knowing what could have been. Pretty impressive resume.

Add Kolby Listenbee to the wish list of a WR in the 3rd round, if he lasts that long. Similar speed as Fuller, but a more muscular physique. A little similar to Treadwell as far as ball skills.

Tommy Lawlor's Mock on PE.Com:

First round (No.8 overall) - QB Jared Goff, Cal
Third round (No.77 overall) - DT Javon Hargrave, South Carolina State
Third round (No.79 overall) - DE Carl Nassib, Penn State
Fourth round (No.100 overall) - RB Paul Perkins, UCLA
Fifth round (No.153 overall) - WR Charone Peake, Clemson
Fifth round (No.164 overall) - OL Caleb Benenoch, UCLA
Sixth round (No.188 overall) - LB Steven Daniels, Boston College
Seventh round (No.233 overall) - OL Halapoulivaati Vaitai, TCU
Seventh round (No.251 overall) - S Tevin Carter, Utah

 

[eaglesnut]

OL can take time to develop in this environment right now. A lot of them play in simplistic college systems. I wouldn't want to wait till next year to grab some top talent. We really need to get at least one in the top 100 picks. Chip set us way back here.

Kolby Listenbee is like a Pinkston with a little more body mass. A tall, thin vertical threat guy.

He's more Paul Richardson than Pinky.

Speaking of receivers, I'm seeing a lot of buzz around Michael Thomas.




Ironically, CBS compares him to Ruben Randle.
