AkronsWitness Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 Just now, NateDawg said: I’m truly puzzled. I am hoping that the staff knows something that we all do not about something going on in his life, character issues, etc. Because on the field, this makes zero sense. And on top of this, Olivier Vernon has not been that good this year and I would not be surprised if he is not even back next season. So there is a need there. So essentially they just created another need in the draft that they have to use a 1-3 round pick on to fill to replace their 5th round gems production Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mind Character Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 (edited) Reportedly got a 4th round pick in 2021. If you think of our own let alone other teams 4th round picks, you'd be lucky to get a Genard Avery. We know John Dorsey's hit rate is much like other GMs even in higher rounds. I take no solace from getting a 4th next year unless somehow we use the 4th to trade for an immediate need now or it ends up being folded into a trade package for some real help for the team. Wilks deserves some criticism for not utilizing a talented player due to "potential scheme fit stuff." Wilks might not even be here whenever it is that we use that 4th round pick or would've had a chance to insert Avery into the line-up. I'm done with it at this point. A shame.

Kiwibrown Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 A 2021 4th round pick. If we get a good player withbit probably doesnt help until 2022. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkPrice25 Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 We'll see how it goes I guess. I'm not ready to go full-on Chicken Little and complain the sky's falling, but it is a head scratcher that he didn't play much, given what we saw last year.

NateDawg Posted October 28, 2019 Author Share Posted October 28, 2019 (edited) He exceeded what you’d hope for out of a 5th rounder. So, what exactly does it take for a 5th round pick to be good enough to stick around here? If only he was as good as Chad Thomas.

I mean, I’ve been saying it all season too, but apparently that wasn’t something they were gonna do. Id rather have a 4 than a bunch more DNP CD’s.

hornbybrown Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 I want to be able to feel good about this but I can’t. He has a very high ceiling and I’m expecting big things out of him for the eagles 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powertower Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 Just read this, really hope there is a legit reason we moved on from him. I liked his rookie yr. Thought there was potential there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
