Danger Posted September 7, 2021 Author Share Posted September 7, 2021 Rattler doesn't strike me as a guy who's going to pan out in the NFL. Gut feeling more than anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love his talent, but his demeanor is off to me. Seems to lack urgency and the desire to improve. I could be totally wrong but I kinda agree with you. He is from my area though so I am rooting for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeezla Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 Doesn't look like Karlaftis had the best first week. Anyone watch Andrew Booth jr vs Georgia? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Booth was really good when I saw him. He came up and made some plays tackling at or behind the LOS and defeating blocks. Quick trigger recognizing a screen and racing to the receiver to tackle him. He wasn’t targeted a lot. He’s a favorite of mine. Just silky smooth. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeezla Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 We probably gonna need to package our pick and either the MIA or IND pick to secure Booth or Stingley, and all 3 picks if we want Thibodeaux or Hamilton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eh, not huge on offering multiple 1sts to get one guy unless it's a QB. The CB class is so deep, I'd rather keep our picks and just have a good roster all around, rather than putting all of our eggs into one basket. Kair Elam is also good out of Florida.

We'd be better off trading our pick and the MIA pick for an established star, ala Seattle for Jamal Adams or CHI for Mack, and using the IND pick on a prospect. We definitely shouldn't draft 3 different guys in the 1st. Hurts not sucking really opens up so many possibilities for what we can do. I like Elam too as a late 1st/early 2nd.

Jeezla Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 What pick would it take to trade for these players: Eric Kendricks? Deion Jones? Myles Jack? Would a 2nd get it done for any of them? A 2nd and Dillard? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EagleBlueDon Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 Yeah if Hurts proves to be a good starter gimme 3 separate FRP selections instead of all 3 to acquire any one prospect. I'd love to inject 3 more young talented prospects into this roster. Namely on defense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll have to agree to disagree. 3 first round picks that fit in well with our rebuilding time frame will be huge. If were in a win now mode, like we were ready to be championship contenders next year, I could see validity to that argument. Also Jamal Adams hasn't been working out well in Seattle, at least not last I heard. I think we're still too stuck in the days of draft picks essentially being useless under the pathetic player development skills of Doug Pederson. Look at the players who developed and performed back then... O-Lineman. Why? We had Stout, who was a holdover from the previous regime. Carson's good year? We had Reich, who was brought in not by Pederson but by the front office. When Reich left, Carson slipped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeezla Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 Trade our 2nd + Dillard for one of LB Eric Kendricks/Deion Jones (preferably within the next 3 weeks) Trade our 1 and MIA 1 for DE Josh Allen 1 via IND - CB Kaiir Elam 3 OL 4 WR 5 DL 5 TE 6 QB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Play the long game, build things up. I feel like you're approach to these things is just antithetical to Sam Hinkie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh Allen is going to be a stud pass rusher and he's young. I'll happily give 2 firsts for him over drafting 2 unknowns. It's not like I'm trading for Chandler Jones. Josh Allen would be here for a long time. And a 2nd rounder to finally have a stud LB? you wouldn't want that? Not exactly mortgaging the future here.

AZ_Eaglesfan Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 Give me three young guys with potential on this team > than one star who will need a big contract. If we were the Rams ready to make a run it would be different, but I'd rather role the dice on 2-3 young guys so we can spend money in FA to bring talent in as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiltman Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 One thing from yesterday's game, Barnett was standing up a lot and dropping back. he did fine, but far from ideal use of him. If they love Sweat and the winddown years of Graham at that more pure DE spot, probably gonna need to look at more versatile guys. Or even just 3-4 OLBs to take that edge spot.
