Also was an issue min pass pro. He got better but yeah room for improvement there too.

Old regime would be all over Bijan, can’t imagine Howie taking him even if he’s there at the end of round one.

Remember reading that his blocking was an X factor that some people thought might get him a bump.

Jahmyr Gibbs.

Explosive, good size, good hands. 

If we can snag him in round 2 I would, but I imagine he'll be in the first.

Is this the time of the year we have people mocking the Eagles taking a RB in the 1st, all knowing it’ll never happen.  Doesn’t matter if we have two of them or not.   If you’re familiar with my opinions then the following won’t shock you.  
 

Grab a RB later. 3rd or later.  
 

We’ll need the following:

 

Corner

Safety

DE

DT

RT

RB

 

I’ll dive into possible RB targets later this week.

Don't want a RB in the first. I could see DL/OL with the first two picks. I'd be surprised if we took a Corner early

Steichen gone.  Hopefully Brian Johnson gets elevated.  I have long thought, he's the best HC prospect on the staff.  And that was including Nick Sirianni.  He is going to be a star.

Either we do it or steichen takes him. I would move him up. Just curious of the playcaller never year

Hey, bro.  Forgot to tag you.  

 

 

I'm sure if the Eagles want him as the OC, he'll stay because of his relationship with Hurts.

Absolutely. Just had the discussion with my brother about this team versus the '17 team and getting gutted. I said the major difference wasn't just losing the OC, but the starting QB isn't coming back from a horrific injury so you actually know what your getting next year so you can plan accordingly

Was thinking about the two teams.  Both defenses played like hot garbage, but 2017 they finally made 1 play at the end.

But, Nick Foles continued putting points on the board.

2017 - 1st half points, 22, 2nd half points, 19

2022 - 1st half points, 24, 2nd half points, 11

Brian called plays at Florida for a year. I imagine he will call plays for Nick.

No he didn't - he "collaborated" on play-calling and was expected to get a bigger role in the offense before he left. Dan Mullen had the final say as the play-caller at Florida.

I saw that in a tweet this morning. I stand corrected.

If the Super Bowl showed us anything aside from Gannon's flaws. It's that taking a RB in day 1 or 2 is overrated. Scott and Gainwell performed just as well Sanders. Obviously you can't me marching out complete schlubbs, but taking a guy day 3 to replace Sanders and go with Gainwell is just fine. 

Right now the exception I think I'd make is if Charbonnet is there at the end of R3.

IMO, make all of the first 3 picks on the defensive side of the ball. 1 DL, 1 DB, and another one of those depending on BPA.

Yep.  Gibbs and Robinson would be nice luxuries to have. But it’s just not a sound approach to building a roster.  Not only do you use a high pick if you draft one in the 1st, you’ll also have to ear mark 1st round money for a RB.  Bigsby is someone I’d keep an eye on for early day3 if he lasts.
