I still don't get how they were THAT off. It's like no matter what, I can't imagine a worse meeting of bad draft prep, reaching and down right baffling stupidity. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This pick hurts - especially given that Cam Jordan was the next pick - just typical Eagles, taking a bust before a All-Pro/Pro Bowler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coming out of college? I don't know, but they've proven to be that throughout their time in Philly. I never said the high character guys you draft shouldn't be good prospects. JJAW was always a reach and Danny was mentally soft. Well actually both of them are. So was Agholor and now Dillard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if we pick back to back if it'd help or if the mojo of two picks would combine into a hall of famer. with the next team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know what you were saying, just pointing out that Howie will probably draft a guy who seemingly has high character, but is actually a nerd who's never really had to test their character because they've been so successful at the HS and college level. We'll either take a high character guy who's character crumbles once they face adversity, or we'll take a genuine good dude that just isn't very good in the NFL.

TheRealMcCoy Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 Like I loved Reagor coming out but even he is being overly sensitive on social media. I really don't understand why we are so good at hitting on guys that aren't that mentally tough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thinks start going down hill for us if Bengals and Falcons draft chase and pitts. If they take a Qb and sewell, waddle forsure drops to us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
