Some Thoughts on the 2nd Round
Posted: May 1st, 2015 | Author: Tommy Lawlor | Filed under: Philadelphia Eagles | 528 Comments »I think things went pretty well for the Eagles last night. There are still plenty of prime targets on the board, which means the Eagles can sit tight and have a good player fall to them. If there is someone they covet, they can go get the player.
I thought ILB Stephone Anthony would be a 2nd round target of theirs for sure. That changed when the Saints took him in the 1st round. That was the one disappointing moment toward the end of the 1st round.
Here are some players I think the Eagles will have serious interest in:
OL TJ Clemmings
OL Jake Fisher
OL Donovan Smith
OG Ali Marpet
OG AJ Cann
QB Bryce Petty
DB Quinten Rollins
CB Eric Rowe
ILB Benardrick McKinney
LB Owamagbe Odighizuwa
Guys they may have interest in:
LB/DL Preston Smith
CB Jalen Collins
LB Danielle Hunter
ILB Denzel Perryman
LB Eli Harold
ILB Eric Kendricks
S Adrian Amos
CB Ronald Darby
Smith has the kind of size they love, but is he meant to play LB? Collins has multiple failed drug tests and is a bit of an underachiever, but has major talent. Hunter has great measurables, but wasn’t very productive. Perryman might be slower than they prefer. Harold isn’t as big as they prefer OLBs to be. He also might go early in the 2nd. Would they draft one Kendricks while reportedly shopping the other? We know they like Amos. Do they 2nd round like him or 3rd round like him? Darby is just under 5-11, has short arms and small hands. Would the Eagles want that?
Back to the top group.
The player I covet is Quinten Rollins. I want an instinctive DB with great hands. I think those guys are hard to find. The Eagles could play him at CB or S.
You can argue that trading up for one of the OTs would be the smart move.
The Eagles made a move up from 54 to 42 last year to get Jordan Matthews. That cost the Eagles a 4.
— Jimmy Kempski (@JimmyKempski) May 1, 2015
Adding someone who could challenge for a starting job right away (RG) and could be a key starter in the future (at LT or RT) might be worth the move up.
I didn’t list any WRs above. I don’t anticipate Chip Kelly double-dipping at that spot, but I can’t completely rule it out. Adding a vertical threat like Devin Smith or a bigger WR like Jaelen Strong (212 pounds), Sammie Coates (212 pounds) or even Devin Funchess (232 pounds) would give the Eagles one deep, talented group of WRs. I hope the team goes elsewhere, but there is logic to adding another WR if he is the highest rated player on the board.
I’m hoping for defense or OL.
The bottom line is that even if the Eagles stay put a good player should be on the board for that spot.
* * * * *
Any trades to happen? The Eagles were shopping some players recently. We’ll find out if that was just pre-draft talk to test the market or if the team is actively trying to move guys like Mychal Kendricks and Brandon Boykin.

My full Eagles Draft Preview is here.
_
If Rowe isn’t there, I think value is likely to be with OL or edge rusher.
Make your prediction now for who 2nd round pick will be:
Mine – A.J. Cann, OG, South Carolina
My gut says OL too, but I want Rowe so bad.
Quinton Rollins
Gut says Rollins based on value + who will be available.
Jake fisher
I forgot to read the original draft preview , ha
Insider news from Tony Pauline:
http://www.draftinsider.net/blog/?p=10523
Says OG A.J. Cann could go off board quick(BOO!)
CB D’Joun Smith will go earlier than expected
QB Sean Mannion think he will be taken by pick 40
S James Sample will go earlier than expected – Seahawks and Baltimore like him
I like Sample, but jeez, 2nd round?
Feeling better and better about going into next season with Watkins / Wolfe.
Di join smith would be a lock if he was 6ft

Took forever our first trade last night. Might get one right away tonight. Titans are seriously considering dealing the 33rd overall pick.
Steelers want it allegedly for Landon or Jalen Collins
To my defensive brothers… All we need to do is get thru tonight without trading away or boys and VInny, Mykal and Fletcher will all be safe since we have to be full retard to accept a 4th round pick for any of them. After tonight, only talent in jeopardy will be Mathis and Boykin..
…
If we get thru tonight without trading away our boys, I will be so jacked up for next season!!!..
…
no trading away our players is all I care about tonight
TJ Clemmens please. Might require a trade up, though.
Sounds like Gabriel is somewhat correct. My apologies to him for the diss.

Source on La’El Collins: If Collins is not drafted, he becomes a free agent. With no eligibility, he will not be eligible for another draft
So if someone was to take him in the 7th and he didn’t sign with them, then he could re-enter the draft. But if no one takes him at all, he can’t and is just an UDFA.
An early run on ILBs could help us move Kendricks if thats what Chip wants.
OL I want:
Fisher
Daryl Williams
Grasu
Marpet
..
Bryce petty only QB I want
…
RD 2 DB:
Rowe
Rollins
Jalen Collins
..
RD 3 Ibrahim Cambell don’t sleep on baby malolm Jenkins
…
ILb: Denzel perryman or Kendricks
..
DL: love Jordan Phillips
..
TE: Max or Jesse James
…
OLB: Eli Harold
..
WR:
DGB
Strong
Devim smith
Lockett
Coates
Would be amazing if Eagles trade 52 + 84 to move up to 33 and take Jake Fisher.
Like, that was fun. Later guys.
I’d rather them trade 52 and a player.
Me as well. Boykin or Curry would work for me. Kendricks would be a bit tougher to swallow.
I wouldn’t trade 52 and Curry for 33 without getting a pick back. 52 + Boykin for 33 would work for me.

Oh oh giants just moved up..hopefully its landon collins
Please be Landon
LT: “Collins is a game changer”
lol c’mon man
yea, i heard that and I was like ahhhhh, no.
That can be interpreted negatively
He is a game changer… When he gives up 80 yard TDs in coverage
Yawn
Good checking off my wish list
Kyle has him as the 95th overall prospect. Back-up, spot starter
In the right system he’s excellent.
SAF Landon Collins is not a top tier SAF prospect with the ability to patrol as a single high defender but he does have versatility to be a Cover 2 FS or box safety and also provide valuable coverage out of nickel defenses. A powerful hitter with aggressive instincts, Collins is capable of starting early but presents limited upside.
Guys, Landon Collins is a good player. He’s just not a fit for our scheme.
Doesn’t deserve all this vitriol.
agree
Maybe Sean Taylor-ish? Can hit like a brick but not cover all that well?
Sean Taylor was one of the best safeties to come out of the draft in the last 20 years, by most accounts. Different era as well.
Hard to compare to be honest.
Yeah he definately is not sean taylor (one of my all time favourite players). I would say hes more like roy williams..hopefully he ends up like taylor mays
Eagles WRs will run circles around Collins. Downhill S, might be good attacking our running game, should be able to kill them on play-action. Or get him in a 1-on-1 match up with Ertz.
Yeah, I don’t miss this:
https://twitter.com/CutonDime25/status/594278386970787841
Eww, them some butt ass twins.
Tampa pick is in
Bye bye Fisher or maybe TJ
Donovan Smith. Interesting choice.
Kiper’s analysis was pretty accurate imo. The tools to be dominant, but didn’t dominate.
Jeremiah just said “he will STROKE you if you come across the middle”
Pause
That was incredibly disturbing.
Good they took Smith
Glad Smith is gone.
GIANTS SUCK
My favorite thing about the draft is the boos for Goodell every time he shows his face.
I find it boring.
He’s such a dick. It doesn’t even phase him.
Yes, I agree. But booing for so many years has become old.
I am sure if I made $44 million yearly salary the boos would have no affect on me either.
Its old and annoying IMO
Its old and annoying IMO
Raiders almost have to go D line, right?
Potential Gregory spot?
could be
The g spot
Raiders took another guy I’m glad is gone. Won’t spoil it.
Jalen?
How are we so behind?
Fuck this shit
I’m half on here, half on the EMB. I think somebody may be tipping the picks in there.
They are having the past players announce the picks, so it takes longer to get it on TV. Plus the picks are coming faster.
alright, lets do this! already see that donovan smith went to the bucs. good to see at penn stater get taken early.
S-T-A-T-E GO STATE GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Guys,
I haven’t been on here last night during the first round, but I hope we keep not spoiling picks, alright?!
Yes thats the plan, the NFL makes it really tough when they’re already two picks behind.
Are you saying ESPN is two picks behind???
Its the NFL.
Raiders pick was in, not announced yet. Jax pick was in. Jets on the clock.
they are already behind with the picks
LOL silly Raiders. This is why they are always going to be terrible
wow that’s a pretty big weight swing for that edwards jr dude
Is it just me or did the announcer for the Raiders pick sound drunk?!
He is old, always give respect to thy elders
Yes, of course. Still sounded drunk though. 😉
Just the brain. 😀
probably dealing with years of undiagnosed concussions
Yeah, not to say anything here but some of these guys don’t do this the smoothest.
Yeldon, alright. Move along
Hope lots of teams take RBs between now and our pick.
That’s the dream. Good start.
good start.. Jay Ajayi gotta be coming off soon too eh?
He has knee issues that may cost him to drop.
T. Coleman is a much better prospect.
Yeah Johnson, Abdullah, Ajayi too
I really hope the Cowboys don’t end up with Abdullah!
Please get me fischer
Ok here are your ski boots. http://www.fischersports.com/en/Home
Its so awkward watching the NFL analysts talk.
Really hope the Jets don’t take Gregory. That would be a little unfair.
They need a RB, right?!
Yes. A QB too.
They can wait till the 3rd or 4th for that
Strong though
Is that the pick?! I am still in commercials on ESPN!
no
No I’m just throwing his name out
Devin Smith is the pick, just announced.
4 picks filling 4 needs, not “best player available” picks.
Redskins strong possibility to take Rowe IMO.
NOOOOOOOOOO Please god no
Wow I have heard some stupid things but this might take the cake… Radio hosts are talking about trading Bradford to the Browns to move up in round 2… WOW!! WTF is wrong with people..
HAHAHAHAHA
Jets: Devin Smith
If the Jets had a QB they’d be Super Bowl contenders..
Devin Smith only ran a 4.42?
only?
Same as Agholor
I mean, for his reputation as a burner.
It’s still pretty fast to me. Not sure if there are many WRs with better 40 yard times in this draft..
Like 7
out of how many?!
for a guy who is supposed to be a burner in the vein of mike wallace, sounds like an avg 40 time
Please let it be Hundley!
how are they so far behind already
how do you know they are so far behind? where are you seeing the live picks?!
Because they tell us on TV. Right before they go to commercial.
on nfl network they said the next 2 picks are aready in
I still don’t understand. So what when we see the announcers taking the podium means this is not LIVE TV?!
they are dragging it out for the commercials
No that is live, but the ticker will say “Pick is in” long before they get on stage. That way you know at least it wasn’t traded, but you don’t know the pick.
aaah, I see now! Thanks for the clarification.
The teams have submitted their cards and the NFL has updated it internally with the teams but hasn’t announced it live at the draft yet.
Why the frick are these idiots discussing the fantasy football implications of picks. Analyze the actual fricking players, morons.
This is horrible. They arent even showing game tape.
Fantasy Football is destroying real football as we used to know it.
yes!
Washington pick is in
Olb?
Rams fielding multiple offers for their second-round pick…
Oh no:
Josh Norris @JoshNorris 10s11 seconds ago
This is an OUTSTANDING pick from the Redskins.
Please god not rowe
Preston Smith
thank jesus
Some more commercials would really make the draft more fun.
Too funny: https://twitter.com/aaroncampeau/status/594281910215380992
lol!
Hope skins take Gregory
FUCKKKKKKK
Yes, I liked him too. At least they didn’t go with Rowe though.
Washington having a great draft.
I thought taking Scherff at 5 was a little bit of a reach.
Won’t matter once games start. He’s a beast.
me too, but a good player
Who’s announcing the Eagles picks tonight?
Runyan
for real? alright!
As far as we are concerned 2nd round is going great
Was thinking the same. Want some more RB action to start rolling.
Same didn’t wanna jinx it lol
Chicago could take a DB here
Going a little faster now with the selections
Eddie Goldman
Why do the Seminoles produce so many good Defense Linemen?!
Good recruiting?
Can team start drafting RBs please?!
careful what you wish for, chip is a crazy enough sob to do it
dick butkus looking stout per usual
The ESPN feed is 100 times better
You really think so? Kiper, McShay and Dilfer are terrible.
NFl network wasnt even showing tape earlier
Oh that it is also terrible.
yeah id rather listen to rich eisen and insert 3 idiots i dont care about
Eisen sounds depressed and they arent even showing tape
it beats listening to the stooges at espn
Scott McLoughan is going to have the Redskins back in contention in like two years. He’s good.
Could TJ Clemmins or Fisher fall to 52?
WIngs crossed.
doubt it
Doubt it… Maybe TJ because of his foot
Interesting pick for Titans
Stop spoiling.
Meh, that’s only like a half a spoil.
Still a spoil though.
Sorry
No worries. Just don’t do it again and bite your tongue instead. 😉
Can you show me where to find this info?
I just type the team name into twitter and usually you see the tipped pick
I didn’t say any name
Who is it?
How do you know
I won’t tip picks, but I give up trying to follow along with ESPN / NFL. They’re so far behind, commercials every two picks.
You’re out! P:-
just let me know if Rowe goes
Rams have dealt their pick to the Panthers
bah prob oline
Fisher is gone
To whom?!
I’m assuming panthers take him
TJ Clemmings panthers

yes! Mariota!!!
Hope not
If so, hopefully slight jump using Matt Barkley
That would mean the Eagles trading back though.
Don’t know if Barkley moves you up 5 spots in round 7. Screw trade ups, only trade back!!
Rams got a 3rd and a 6th for dropping back from 41 to 57
wow
Seems like Rams are not only fleecing the Eagles in trades!
too bad they don’t know who to pick
a 3rd is great!
Mariota to DGB
DGB to titans
Why is Strong sliding like this?
Wrist injury?
Bit overrated IMHO
Rams traded 41 for 57, 89, and 201
Carolina had to take TJ Clemmings..to trade up like this
Luckily for us….
Even better Funchess… I don’t want Clemmings, stress fracture is bad idea on 300lbers, Id rather have Oklohoma daryl Williams if we can’t have Fisher
So have the Eagles sent Howie Roseman as an undercover agent to find out about La’el Collins?!
Panthers select Jake FIsher would be my guess

The #Browns have traded their No. 43 pick to the #Texans
QB in play? Maybe
I would guess RB…
Yeah, get ahead of the Bills.
Read that HOU may have tried to trade into end of Rd 1 yesterday to take Tevin Coleman.
Jalen Collims?
Texans apparently gave a 4th and a 6th to move from 51 to 43 (and also got a 7th back)
Funchess LOL
Carolina is weird.
Yeah, don’t get their draft.
Devin Funyuns
Wow they traded that high for Funchess?
Dumb.
Thank god
lmao
Keep it going teams…
The Panthers like huge WRs.
that home cam, funchess was like whatever…
Come on guys its the second round why not just tip 😛
Just go twitter if you want it spoiled
Yes, what happend to good old live TV!?
Which I’ve done :/
Then figure out who to follow
I already know the next 3 picks its just frustrating watching it “live” when it’s so behind I did watch the first round live though
Good spot for Gregory
AGAIN! DO NOT SPOIL PICKS HERE!!!
That is total speculation. Falcons are still on the clock.
Lol, couldn’t tell from your post..
Come on, that’s not a spoil. That’s not even a half a spoil.
Lol..damn…thought for sure it was gonna be jake fisher
Best moment if the draft for me so far
It was big for me too. But maybe we go CB or LB?
I want fisher. I covet him
BRYCE PETTY!
Post whatever the hell you want
Yeah, I mean you’ve never given a fuck about anyone here, so why start now?
Is he supposed to care about people that he doesn’t know on a blog. Get over it.
Nice try GEAGLE-BOT!
And yes he (you) is (are). That’s how message boards work.
Atlanta gotta pick jay ajayi
Hopefully we don’t trade Up.. Only trade BACK, plenty of value everywhere
Their moving up to trade some players. Maybe??
Pretty sure they could have taken Funchess at 57.
If we are paying value to trade up it better be Bryce Petty or Fisher.. Only QB or OT is worth trade up, and edge rusher of course.. Or jordan pHillips lol
Eagles maybe trading w/ Minn
That trade may be off now. That’s all I’ll say.
That’s a 1/8 of a spoil, mate!
Hang ’em high!
Saying we wanted Collins?
No, I was talking about this one coming now.
Thanks!
JAlen Collens
Vikings gave up their 2nd(51), 4th, and 6th for 43 and the Browns’ 7th. I wouldn’t want to give up that type of compensation to move to 45.
I wouldn’t either, but I don’t trust the Eagles draft picks late. So if they give up late picks, who cares.
Texans you mean. Vikings apparently made a pick without trading it (to the Eagles or anyone else).
Sorry guys about my impatience I’ll wait like the rest of you :/
It’s not your fault. It’s the NFL. Ruining the draft experience. Really sad.
This has been awful.
Eric rowe, TJ Clemmings, or Jake Fisher?
nope!
TJ, Jake, Rowe
Holy crap this is playing out nicely
Long way to go.
Benardrick McKinney, another guy I thought Eagles may take that I didn’t want
Only 8 more picks.
and 3 more hours to get there!
Sit tight. Clemmings, Fisher, Rowe, Rollins, Hunter, Strong…
Gregory man…smh
He must be thick as a brick.
The internet rumor was social anxiety or depression. Just sad.
Or he’s’ to young to die but to old to rock and roll…
He must be like a sociopath or something.
I’m guessing bi-polar. Stress can induce episodes. Would explain marijuana use too.

Why?
Don’t give-away Boykin. Play hardball – Chip will love you.
If petty doesnt go to saints hes gonna go to the biills
This is bullshit. I don’t get why they have to wait an hour to announce each pick.
Agree this format is brutal
I am getting a little nervous that Chip may take Hundley…
I’m hoping he does..i think he could be special here in a year or so
I want Randy gregory on the Cowboys where Bane Johnson can smash him twice a year and have demarco run right at the lightweight every single time he is on the field.. Even better is the Cowboys trading up for him
Saints better not steal Bryce petty
I think he’s going here, but just guessing
Wow ThiS was a major reach. He has a medical issue or something, I forget
who?
hey since we’ve all had to deal with all the soap selling on the big networks i’ll share a commercial that they’ve been showing on eagles live.
chip kelly at his best:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QWPS2Vy_ZQc
Hau’oli Kikaha
Did not think he would go top 50
didn’t talk about the pick at all on nfl network, i guess they weren’t prepared for him.
Kikaha is one of my favorites in this draft. Really like his game. Wish him the best.
Bills will take a QB hope they are both gone so Eagles don’t get tempted
Shut up you… We need Bryce!!! 😉
I thoyght you liked Bradford
There’s a #3 QB spot available. And hedging against not being able to re-sign Bradford wouldn’t be the worst idea.
Not the worst, but I think we will extend Bradford. Would rather improve the team around him.
I do… Long time before you would hear me to clamor to start Petty. But he will be better then Jameis. We would be set with Bryce grooming beHind sam
im not sure the bills are allowed to redraft ej manual
Hope they take Petty.
Would like to take Hundley.
Vikings are going to take Fisher, I’m predicting
I think Strong
Nice pick by Vikings.
Works for us as well.
Kendricks little bro
Yep.
Vikings are going to be good this year I think.
there goes the kendricks bros dream
Mychal won’t be here next season..
Think that died when his big bro was put on the blocks.
Unless we end up trading Mychal to Minnesota 😉
we trade u
Vikings will be really good once rodgers retires.
to Miami
boykin to miami?

Maybe we can trade Mychal for a 3rd and 5th.
Betting we gave them Boykin.
Would be crazy if Boykin is only worth 5 spots.
sucks to be a short CB
Maybe get a late round pick back. Guys in last year of deals, unless they’re top-tier, don’t have a ton of value.
Hopefully get swap 2nd and get a 5 th back also for Boykin
Ticker has us in both #47 and #52 spots.
Mychal Kendricks + Boykin maybe?!
Takes awhile for ticker to get updated.
OK. Now reporting we traded both 5th round picks to move up 5 spots and we got a 6th back.
Yep, could be.
Looks like we have 52 still!
Fisher for us?
Ticker hasn’t swapped us out of #52 yet?
Also, I know who we’re taking.
boooooooo
Kendricks traded?
Nvm
Its showing that we 2 picks in rd 2…that cant be right can it?
Ugh, this trade sucks.
Details?
Both 5ths to move up 5 spots. We get MIAs 6th back.
Swap seconds, Eagles give up both 5ths, Eagles get a 6.
2nd rd, 2 5th rds
we get back a 6th
Terrible trade.
Depends upon who they take.
We didn’t trade players and Donkeys keep hope we are trading our talent smh

Pennsylvania, USA
Eagles gave up pick 52, 145 and 156 for picks 47 and 191. So lost both fifth-round picks, gained an extra sixth-round pick.
Great trade
Wow, thats fuckin awful
Not if Chip knows his top guy is gone by 52
better be rowe/fisher/clemmings
Agree. Those are my picks.
Those are my targets. Could see the ucla DE
Love him
Its not that bad man, look at the Panthers now that was bad
true the panthers draft makes me laugh
That sucks. Think Chip, will trade a player or two to recoup picks.
Hope not
Our fifth round picks stink anyway.
two 5ths to move up 5 spots?? Come on Chip! You’ve got one job tonight.
They’re 5th round picks for fuck’s sake. Quit bitching
Lol better then losing players
eagles pick is in!
Don’t you love the way Mayock pretends he doesn’t already know the pick?
Niice
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSs
Rowe
Rowe Baby!!!!
im so fuckin happy
So am I. Wow, what a great decision. Chip/GM has promise.
Hell yea. thats my next Jersey right there!
Yep.
Chip is not a trade back guy, he gets his guys — even if it’s a little premature
That’s my impression as well
Eric Rowe is a good get.
Yessssssssssssss
According to “the chart” we got better value than miami in this trade.
Love it. cB or S?
Safety
Cb? I think finding the best opposite of maxwell is most important
Could be either, don’t know what Chip’s thinking about it
Safety
Wow so much for fisher
Ladies and gents, please welcome our new starting S!
Boykin’s gone
Great pick.
Probably had to get in front of KC, huh?
Yep. Screw ’em!
Great pick… But now we better trade back from our next two picks
Trade up for Fisher bro
Please
No trade up! TKe Daryl Williams from Oklohoma or Grasu from oregon
Draft is going really well so far.
Inpgnore
Meh. Somebody make me feel better about this pick. I’m not mad but not thrilled.
From Kyle:
Eric Rowe has the makings of a very good NFL boundary corner. Ability to play off with efficient feet or up in the face of receivers as press corner suggests a versatile player capable of working numerous schemes. Tremendous ball skills could also equate to transition back to Free Safety.
Tremendous ball skills sounds very nice. Thank you.
yes lol
Great pick… Awesome safety next to Jenkins
BUT BUT Chip got ROBBED!!!! He gave up 2 Fifth round picks… This season is DOOOMED!!!! Forever
Hate that we gave up both 5th rounders to move up just 5 spots, but I absolutely love Rowe. That kid is always violent at the point of attack whether he’s defending a pass or tackling a ball carrier. Very happy with the pick!
get a solid G in this draft and i’ll be really happy with the outcome, super pumped about our first 2 picks

Solid.
My God, we MIGHT have a Defense!!!!!
you mean a 2ndary, the front 7 was pretty solid last year
Not once Demeco went down
touche
love it!..sad that my other fav picks rollins, hundley, wont be available, but 2 solid picks so far
Watch out for Eagles trading up into second round again!
My dark horse would be Mychal Kendricks to the Packers for #62.
..
I want Rady Gregory in our division so I can watch BANE Johnson beat him into a bloody pulp and have Demarco run right at him every single time they. Hopefully Cowboys draft him
Kyle has him as 14th rated overall prospect. So fuckin stoked
I didn’t like the trade, but it’s fair. By the trade value chart, which teams still use even if there’s more leeway up high:
47(430 pts) + 191(16.6) = 446.6 pts. 52(380) + 145(33.5) + 156(29) = 442.5 pts.
Yeah, it’s not bad. I’m happy we got Eric Rowe.
Quality over Quantity is okay in the NFL Draft.
Especially this one. Overall, this seems like a very weak draft class.
Yeah, good point.
Bruh some of us were ready to use Boyking to move up 5 spots and were complaining about 5ths still have 3,4,6,6,7
Lol speaks or yourself
I wasn’t speaking for myself which is why I said some of us not me
I mean, gonna be great when we just lose Kendricks / Curry / Boykin in FA next year and get nothing but a comp pick.
Not even that unless they sign less free agents than they lose.
Sure,if that’s what happens, but there is value in having them for this year.
good pick
We didn’t trade away any of our players, we got a starting safety, one of the top 2 in the draft IMO, and we still kept our 3rd and 4th round picks… GREAT FOCKIN Trade!M
Even with the trade that is amazing value for Rowe
His name is Nelson? DESTINY!!
#nerdsquad
How are strong and Clemmings still on the board?!?!
What did we trade to move up?
We lost both our 5ths and got their 6 back
Meh not too bad.
both 5th rounders. Got a 6th back though.
Unbelievable, 2 5th round picks to move up 5 spots. Takes a WR we could of traded back and still have. Chip has NO NO NO concept of Value, NONE.
If it wasn’t Rowe I’d say yea. But this dude is going to be a freakin stud.
We got a 6th too. There was probably a bidding war.
Forget value. We are getting good football players that fit our system and have a low bust factor. Great first 2 picks
yes! both can contribute sooner rather than later
Yeah CHip sucks… NO CLUE how to build a team… Wish you were in War Room to set em’ straight… WTF Lurie get this guy to NovaCare ASAP.
Oh shit there’s a Redskin fan in here!
Redneck says everything I need to know about you so thanks
And what would that be? Please elaborate. You aren’t judging are you?
What exactly does it say? Please elaborate, would you? You aren’t judging me, unfairly, are you?
IMO we got the best safety in the draft… I had Rollins as #2, Ibrahim Cambell as #3, Damarious Randall #4, and Landon Collins not on our board.. I’m friggin Jacked up!!!
QUIET, EVERYONE QUIET! big red is about to pick
I wouldn’t be to mad about trading 2 fifths. They hardly ever turn into starters and there was probably a bidding war to move up and get Rowe.
So is this saying he has good instincts or bad? Or just that they’re good, but not elite? I’m confused…
What would be a fair price to move up from our 3rd to the late 2nd to get one of fisher/clemmings?
expensive
GB needs ILB….
This year’s 3rd, 4th and next year’s 4th get it done?
I think a good OL will slip to our 3rd. Maybe not Fisher or Clemmings but maybe Marpet.
I love Kendricks, but if it landed us Clemmings I may be open to it. Long term RT and rookie RG is more important than ILB
We don’t have any ammo left unless we’re sending a player.
It’s wild how often Chip admits to having a higher grade on a guy. He’s basically tried to move up this entire round. Price was too much, but his guy kept falling.
chip wants players, he doesn’t care about getting 8 compromise guys. if he gets his 3 contributors he’d be happy
I know, just fun that he admits to being wrong (like having a 3rd round grade on Hart)!
Pretty sure anyone of us would have taken Agholor / Rowe as first two picks.
Nice start!
Yup.
In my final mock for Eagles that I did yesterday, I had Eagles trading down to 25 and taking Byron Jones(I wrote Eric Rowe was the backup plan) and then moving up(using Kendricks) to 30 and taking Agholor
lol nice
Ha, nice!
in an alternate universe ud be right, in this uni you were pretty close!
I think most people would have been ok with Rowe in the first honestly.
Andy wow. wowwwwwww
Remember when we’d expect picks like that….
Wonder if they were going to take Rowe. (Or maybe Buffalo would have… they just went CB with Ronald Darby)
Flexibility: Very strong ability to bend from the knees and fluid hips to turn and drop off the LOS late in Cover 3/4. Sinks hips and keeps COG over base with eyes on Quarterback.
Mitch Morse. I thought he’d go late 3rd at highest.
fischer and clemmings still on the baord, if we can get one of those guys and be done i’d be happy with the draft.
Is he a “Fastball” at the guard spot?
He was a tackle at Missouri, but he was actually announced as a center.
I don’t much about him.. Just being Facetious with Andy and his questionable Fastball picks. He could be great versatile player for Reid. I’m just a fan fucking around.. Getting drunk.
Good pick with Kelly
god jim kelly looks like shit, cancer sucks

Chip ends presser noting two Oregon players went last night and he didn’t take either. Added: “We didn’t draft Jake Fisher…yet.”

Wow no one wants these QBs
i really like Eli Harold. If he continues to fall he’s a guy I would target. Guy can fly off the edge
NEW THREAD IS UP!!!
Would Rowe have lasted until 52?
Think KC might have taken him since they’re down a DB, thatd be my worry.
Yeah, them or maybe Rex had him higher than Darby.
Buffalo took a CB so they may have liked him too
Conley in the third please Chip.
Carolina turned a 1/2/3/6 into Shaq and Funchess like… Really?
Two guys without a real position. Nice.
They already have a somewhat better Funchess in Benjamin
Benjamin >>>>>>> Funchess though.
