Zero doubt in my mind. People won't like it, people will *****,it's not the sexy pick but it makes perfect sense to me TBH. In a matter of 3-4 seasons 90% if not the entire Eagles OL that has been touted as Elite for over a decade would of been adequately and properly replaced thru the draft for the next decade! Peters-Mailata Seomalu-Dickerson Kelce-Jurgens Brooks- Fuaga (24/25)/Steen/25'??? Johnson- Fuaga That is Howie in a nutshell, always playing the long game. Not the immediate satisfaction most of you allways want. Chess>Checkers My question...If Kelce officially retires...Do we want Jurgens to move to C or Stay at G? Could We draft a C instead? and Keep Jurgens where hes been for a whole season already...Also W/ The Injury Concerns, Wouldn't you want your C to be one of your healthies guys so wouldn't it make sense to DRAFT a C in say Jackson Powers-Johnson or Sedrick Van Pran or do we move Jurgens to C? Just a thought. Also Jackson Powers Johnson has played both C/G so you would gain that versatility just like with Jurgens and Dickerson if you wanted that option.

Wouldn't surprise me in the least if either were on the board, Howie drafted. Guess it depends on their overall views on Steen but we drafted Duckerson to replace Kelce, not knowing he'd play2-3 more years. Drafted Jurgens because Landon was a AP at LG, not knowing Kelce would play 2-3 more years. I'd prefer Jurgens at OC, because I think he struggled at RG. However Power's is a different animal. People won't like it but reading youth on th OL Isa necessity with 2 HOF retiring in the next 2 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who is your top Guards currently? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who is your top Guards currently? In a vacuum, I'd rather have Jurgens go back to Center given that's what Kelce hand picked him for. I think it's easier to train up a guard, then it would be to find a suitable replacement for a Hall of Fame Center. But if a prospect like Austin Powers Johnson is there at our pick in the 2nd, it's worth some consideration. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last Stand Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 As unrealistic as it is I want kinchens. Looks the part and I think he’d bring something special to the secondary. I do think Blankenship might be best as a high end 3rd safety Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'd be a trade down option for sure. Seems like the book on him is his ranginess but he's skinny. Him, Brown and Blankenship could be nice.

He famously doesn’t play young players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I expect us to make a significant move there regardless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which maybe maybe helps us address the horrible LB room we have. as well as adding a safety. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least based on how howie talked about him so my hope is they spend a lot of money on safety. Try to recreate McLeod and jenkins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
