Jroc04 Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 2 hours ago, Jeezla said: Carlos Hyde is about as dependable as Corey Clement, and Houston could use a RB even more than us, which tells you something, along with the fact he'd be on his 5th team in 5 years. I hope the asking price is too high because i feel like his wheels are falling off this season. I don’t know why you’d say any of that. He’s not a world beater but he’ll be used in a spell/backup role. 10-12 carries a game. Is a willing receiver albeit not dynamic there. But can be a receiving target in the passing game. He was fine in SF, had a bad year with CLE/JAX but who doesn’t? And had a good year in HOU last year. His best arguably. I don’t see how his wheels are falling off. Yes, he’ll be 30 this year but has never had more than 250 carries or 300 touches in any year. He’s good as the big/backup role. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeSean Jackson Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 Per combine gps numbers hurts had the strongest arm there on average velocity, longest throw and avg speed of 18.4 kvon Wallace 19.5 Davion Taylor 20.4... this guy is a rocket, very raw but if we can develop him he can be a playmaker.

EaglesPeteC Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 Im ok with Hyde. He serves a specific short yardage, change of pace role. Hopefully Miles is more of a bellcow, Scott is the Sproles and then Hyde or someone of that ilk just gives you the extra beef and change up you need. I really like Clement though. But he doesn't really fit that role. In an ideal world, Clement would step up in a way that would make Hyde unnecessary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danger Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 Jason Peters believes he can play into his 40s JP.... just let it go man. You don't have to prove anything to anyone anymore dude. Just retire to some private resort or something. Or find your next chapter in life. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We drafted Dilliard and it is time to move on. But with some of the LT's who start in this league, I think he is still starting caliber Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nabbs4u Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 (edited) Peter's also realizes 5-10M for another 3-4 yrs can go a long ways towards retirement. Can he still play and would he easily be the 3rd best OT on our roster, Yes. He just can't except his days as our starter moving forward baring injury is over.

EagleBlueDon Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 Man that PFF all decade top 101 is littered with Eagles. We have a good amount on the 2019 top 101 as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EagleBlueDon Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 "Other than 1990 fifth-round selection Calvin Williams and 2010 fifth-round pick Riley Cooper, you have to go back to Hall of Famer Harold Carmichael, a seventh-round pick in 1971, to find an Eagles' late-round receiver that's made any sort of impact in an Eagles uniform." - Reuben Frank's rationale as to why John Hightower and Quez Watkins are long shots to have successful careers. I have no idea how this guy has a job in sports writing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howie Roseman is responsible for the Eagles past GMs ineptitude at drafting late round WR dating back to 1971. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
