Rd 1 Draft Talk Thread

[mcnabb7542]

I would have taken Montgomery over Sanders. We will see how that turns out.

I think at the end of the day it came down to "how much tread is still left on the wheels"!

I loved Montgomery as well, but he really did carry the ball a lot at Iowa St....

I keep hearing people say that we should have taken Metcalf or Campbell over him.

Seriously? People are fucking dumb then. Metcalf sucks, he's just a big body. I'm glad the league in general was smarter than the internet draft idiots I've been hearing for months.

Campbell doesn't even run a full route tree and wasn't even a real deep threat despite his impressive timed speed.

The one thing the Eagles value a ton is the type of person their players are. We only get to see what these players are like on the field but maybe guys like CGJ, Hakeem Butler etc. are on the board because they didn't test well off the field. That is a determining factor.

Honestly the player I can't understand is still on the Board is Mack Wilson. Not a great LB draft so I wonder if teams are overthinking it with him. He would be an absolute stud in this defense.

I also like Owonlyi from Penn State, he should have been gone by now to.

Mack Wilson should go 4.1.

 

[eaglesnut]

The scouts must know or have seen something that I haven’t, but I’m shocked to see Gardner there. Any off field concerns on this guy? I must’ve fell in love with his versatility and highlights. Wouldn’t be the first time that’s happened lol.

He's looking more and more jaylen watkinsy every day.

 

[old duke]

I am actually shocked at some of the safety talent still on the board. I doubt they make it to us though. Hopefully we can trade Agholor or Big V and get an extra pick in the round or move up.

Rumor has it that they trade Agholor today. He took Philadelphia off of his Twitter account. Whatever that means.

Yeah, Chauncey and Wilson are my two wishes today.

I agree with you. Whatever that means. Just because Howie said Nelly ain’t going anywhere doesn’t mean shit. Hell, it actually peaked my ears even a tad more to a possible trade. Will see today I guess....

 

[Orlando Eagles]

because no one here is. hell, the people paid to do this professionally don't have a general idea who's going to pan out. why melt down over the unknown?

We’ve known plenty of Philly posters over time who melt down over the unknown all the time. They fall in love with a player and lose their shit when picks like have gone off the board for us happen.

But it’s not happening here....totally on the credibility of the FO I say.

JJ really feel like he could be that right kind of “non buzz” pick. They are looking for the right things at the next level and I think he has it.

Metcalf could be good....but there’s really good odds he could be one of those draft hypes that never really transcends fully to the pro game.

Need more punters and Kickers drafted in from of the Eagles , Quarterback and WR too

He appears to have retweeted a message from the Eagles earlier today, so I think this rumor is false.

 

[Taz]

Give me Wilson, Or Thompson, or Owunlyi or Mack here

 

[eaglesnut]

I like it. Nice frame and speed. Let these coaches develop this kid. I said earlier they should get a young pass rusher.

Looks like @old duke is getting his Penn State players finally.

What's with this PSU Eagles? Wtf! LOl, kidding guys.

 

[Screamin Eagle]

Shareef Miller is a good pick. Why? Because I had him in my mock.

 

[Iggloo]

I don't like the pick. Let's hope he develops, he has the athletic abilities, but meh player so far, and there were better options.

 

[Screamin Eagle]

Eagles pick Clayton Thorson QB, also in my mock.

 

[mall3013]

I like Thorson. I think he can be a decent backup in this league. I also think he or Sudfeld will eventually become a trade chip down the road possibly.

You killed it Wahoo

sudfeld was rfa this year, gets to look for a better option next year.

 

[eaglesnut]

I thought they would add a QB with the undrafteds. This was a nice surprise.

Guess they like the tools and they'll teach him the rest. Can never have enough good quarterbacks.
