Reuben Foster reportedly failed drug test at combine

So you guys would take him even with the possibility of a 2nd shoulder surgery? No doubt he's a stud if 100% healthy ... but two big shoulder surgeries for a guy who needs healthy shoulders to make tackles would be a bit worrisome.

Report: Eagles met with Reuben Foster again recently

Legitimate interest on the Eagles' end too.

Yes! Foster would be electric in our defense.

Jabrill Peppers tested positive also. Nice way to start your career in the NFL .... in the "program"

Depends what my team doctors are saying.

It's super easy to play MLB at Bama. Really, really clean in there. Easy to operate. Best defensive athletes in college all around you. Add on top of that the shoulder issues and he makes me nervous. Who really wants to take a WLB with a low floor in the 1st in a class as good as this?

At least he can cover. And that is something we have lacked from our backers. But not in the 1st.

I keep getting the suspicion that Charles Harris is going to be the guy at 14. I'd be interested to see what the reaction would be if that were to happen, with a bunch of offensive guys potentially still on the board

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. Most guys like him never develop and a lot bust completely.

Ya better brace yourself E-Nut - there's a lot of interest from the Eagles' side.

I'd take him in a NY minute!!!

Me too, and I'd go Mixon in the 2nd. Which, speaking of him, they say that Dalvin cook is a worse dude than Mixon.

I would like one of: Foster; Conley; Howard; or McCaffrey in the 1st. Mixon in the 2nd. The BPA @ DE; WR; or CB in the 3rd. I also think Howie finds a way to move up closer than #99 in the 3rd. It's way too long to lose out on a good player between 43 and 99 = that's 56 we watch go by!

Well I would like to add some pass rush very much.

The Eagles do like to lie before the draft and mislead folks. Howie sounds like he enjoys it actually. Hopefully Barnett is the real target.

Maybe 99 and Kendricks could move us up a bit.

Kelce should also very much be in play this weekend for either a Day 3 pick or leverage to move up Day 2.

What team is going to go out of their way for a small overpaid center? I think a small overpaid linebacker is easier to move. But I would love to move both and just end this chapter for both.

I think it was Scheffter on Mike and Mike this morning saying that Foster will not drop and will keep his status as an early first.

Hope he's gone. Replacing one of our top 5 players (Jordan Hicks) really can't be the best way to build this team. And he'll push down the real talent at bigger positions.

My money is on him going to either Cincy or New Orleans.

Hey, can't knock a brother for wishful thinking, right?

Foster would be drafted to play with Hicks, not replace him. Hicks has already said he would welcome a move to the outside and some think he might fit better playing there, if Foster is drafted to be the MIKE.
