corner or wide out

no other way around it
Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

Pretty sure the Eagles will lose the coin flip.

You fool, how can this team compete without an elite RB? Frankly, if they don't trade up to get one then they're just wasting another season.

They'll win the flip, but chose to let the Colts go first.

The man. The myth. The legend.

I'm very anti RB in the first round, but Dalvin Cook has to be in play, and there is a great chance he's available. He's so explosive and is an amazing receiver out of the backfield. Hell, day one, he'd be a better pure WR than anyone currently on the roster.

I think Cook is very very special.

PhillyPhreak54

I'm also anti first round RB and I agree on Cook

Don't force the WR or CB pick if the board doesn't develop.

Once the underclassman declarations are final I'll have a good idea of my want list

Cook is probably going top-10 after that Orange Bowl

1st = #14/#15 coin flip
2nd = #11
3rd = #10
4th = #12, whatever comp pick Cleveland gets (somewhere around #31 or #32)
5th = #11
6th = #10
7th = #12

Thank you Minnesota.

We need to send Rick Spielman a fruit basket

ice grillin you

so many good rb's will be there on day two theres no reason to go there in the first round....unfortunately this is a terrible wr draft so going there in round one is risky

id take the top rated non QB non TE offensive player on my board in round 1

Cook may go top 10, but I still think philosophically a lot of teams are against taking RBs early, we will see.

I wouldn't rule out trading up. While some may think the Eagles can't afford to give up more picks after trading up last year, if say for example, there is a major drop off in tiers of players on your board from 12 to 14 or 10 to 14, then I wouldn't bet against it. No one trades more than Howie, and when GMs fall in love with players, it's hard to get them off of it.

I think receiver is more than likely handled through free agency. If I had to guess, I think they probably go CB in round 1. Not sexy, but needed.

PhillyPhreak54

What do their picks in 2018 look like? Bc I could see you being right and trading up

Problem is Howie has to stock this roster up. He can't do that in FA since they're not flush with cap room
