nlesthought Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 I think we'll need some team to take a chance on a player that is slipping due to injury or situation in order to move back and collect some picks. The real question is with all the injuries we had do we think a draft pick after the first couple rounds is going to play a major role barring any major moves, trades. I think we can still do some maneuvering with multiple 4s and 5s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nlesthought Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 TE prospect Dallas Goedert SDSU...yes he'll have to change his name I think 3rd-5th round depending how well he test. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see lots of people ranking him as the #1TE in this class. Have a hard time believing he drops that far. Looks like a small school Zach Ertz though.

nlesthought Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 The HS I coach at we go to their summer camp every year, he's a big kid. Grounded. He could be the first TE off the board. Again I have to see how he tests.... He was definitely force fed but over 1000yards for a TE is still tough sledding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like @Jlash said there is pretty much no chance of him falling that far. He'll almost certainly be gone in the 2nd round if he doesn't find his way into the 1st round. Quote Goedert now stands 6-foot-5 and weighs 270 pounds. He can run the 40-yard dash in 4.65 seconds, a blistering time for his size. His squat max is up to 552 pounds, his vertical jump at 36 inches. In short, he's significantly narrowed the gap between what he can be and what he is. Also, as far as athletic testing there is this from an NFL.com article on him. For comparisons sake... Gronk ran a 4.68 (pro day) and jumped 33.5 inches.

Should I change that to re-negotiate or re-work their contracts? Restructuers take UNGUARENTEED Base Salary and converts it to GUARENTEED Signing Bonus and then spreads it over the life of the contract. This is good for the Eagles short term because it opens up cap space by lowereing the player's cap number but is bad in the long term because the player will have higher cap number in the future with more of it guaranteed. Restructuring is great for the player. It gives them more guarenteed money and thus harder to cut or trade. So you want to restructure sparingly because itll catch up with you and only good young core players on long term big deals. The players you might see restructured are Lane Johnson and Fletcher Cox. Curry will have to agree to a straight pay cut or he'll be gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The straight pay cut is what I meant with a lot those guys in my original posts (Celek, Curry, Smith, etc.). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see Celek taking one because of age and being a life time Eagle. The other two, i dont see happening Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
