The reason Burgess' pick was only a 5th is because the things are barely based on production, if at all. His contract was 5 years/17M or something like that, its not that big.

Pittsburgh is bucking to have even more 4th round picks than the Eagles.

They lose enough quality to get TWO 4th round comp picks and a 5th (Burress & ??), and then win the Super Bowl?

Bah.

Eagles | Team receives two comp picks
Mon, 27 Mar 2006 17:34:57 -0800

The Philadelphia Eagles received two compensatory pick in the 2006 NFL Draft. The picks are No. 36 in the fifth round or No. 168 overall and No. 35 in the sixth round or No. 204 overall.

Not only do the fifth round and sixth round picks suck, but they are at the end of both rounds. zesty.

The decision to allow Burgess to go elsewhere, at the time it was made, was a solid decision.

Anyone want to bet he stays healthy through 2006?
Didn't think so.

like hunt said player evaluation is their job and free agency is all about player evauluation

anyone whod seen burgess play even a little knew he was a beast...the injuries were the issue...i wasnt pissed at them when he left but only because i believed their spin that the money was outrageous...well looking back it wasnt and they shouldnt be rewarded for letting him go and only bringing in mcmahon to complete their offseason...if anything the raiders should get the xtra pick for making a wonderfully bold move

its pathetic to here you people bitch and moan about the birds getting a fifth round comp pick rather than a fourth lol...get a hold of yourselves and realize they dont deserve shtein for doing what they did last offseason...and that goes for any team not just the eagles
Title: Re: Comp Picks Announced (Eagles Get A 5th & 6th)
Post by: hunt on March 28, 2006, 08:54:37 AM
no, it was a horrible decision...burgess led the nfl in sacks & the eagles couldn't get near the qb all season.
at the time, the eagles were following their usual plug & pray strategy of not paying top dollar for guys and plugging in their cheaper backups & hoping they pan out.  and they didn't.

the guy hadn't stayed healthy since is rookie year, and he stayed healthy for this year.  good for him, good for the Raiders, but to rip the Eagles is so asinine.

Post by: PhillyGirl on March 28, 2006, 08:57:44 AM
hunt are you kidding me with this drivel?

Burgess played like 8 games in THREE SEASONS and wanted a big payday. He got one on a team willing to take a risk. The Eagles had already lost him for 2 full seasons and half of another. Sure, he showed some signs of being a solid player, especially in that playoff game vs. the Falcons. But that was no reason to pay the guy 30 mil on potential alone.

Had they done it and he got hurt again, you'd be whining and crying that the Eagles FO farged up.

of course it was a bad decision, anyone can say that after the season was over.  but find me where you or anybody else was pissed that the Eagles let an injury prone DE go for the money the Raiders gave him, when it happened.  find me where you said that he would stay healthy this year and have a monster year like the Eagles had waited for 3 years for.  then, you get some credit.  but this whole crying over spilled milk thing, it's weak.

it wasnt that big a payday for the talent they were getting

Sure, he showed some signs of being a solid player, especially in that playoff game vs. the Falcons

dont pretend it was one game as the eagles like to spin it...he was great his whole rookie year...yes the injuries were the issue but looking back and seeing he didnt get all that much money shows that it was indeed a mistake

Had they done it and he got hurt again, you'd be whining and crying that the Eagles FO farged up.

no way i would ever get mad for paying a player who has a chance to be great...jevon kearse had been hurt off and on for two years before the eagles signed him to a lot more cake than burgess...but i wouldnt for a second criticize that move even tho kearse has been less than stellar (burgess had more sacks last year than kearse does in his eagle career)

its going after guys that arent and dont have a chance to be good that i get pissed off about
Title: Re: Comp Picks Announced (Eagles Get A 5th & 6th)
Post by: hunt on March 28, 2006, 09:05:10 AM
whatever...it's a pointless argument now.
they had the guy for 4 years so you'd think they'd see his potential...even worse than letting him go was not adequately replacing him...much worse, imo.

btw, player evaluation is not my job...there are people on the eagles' staff who do that for a living...and they were wrong.
Title: Re: Comp Picks Announced (Eagles Get A 5th & 6th)

Title: Re: Comp Picks Announced (Eagles Get A 5th & 6th)
Post by: PhillyGirl on March 28, 2006, 09:06:44 AM
Kearse missed ONE season and then like 2 games the following season for unrelated injuries.

Burgess had a nice rookie season and then missed TWO ENTIRE SEASONS in a row, and then a good part of 2004 with the separated sternum.

Don't even compare the 2.
Title: Re: Comp Picks Announced (Eagles Get A 5th & 6th)
Post by: ice grillin you on March 28, 2006, 09:09:03 AM
kearse missed two games that year but was plagued all year with what people were saying were chronic foot injuries...and yes burgess missed more time but he also got paid tons less...so money vs time lost is actually comparable in this situation

1. Yes, Burgess did have a nice rookie season. That is why in 2002 when he broke his foot they kept his ass on the 53-man roster the entire season instead of putting him on IR.

2. So after the broken foot of 2002, the torn achilles of 2003, the separated sternum and 2.5 sacks in 2004 he leaves the Eagles and stays healthy and has a monster season.

3. The hindsighters and FO haters like to point out that they let Burgess go. But those people who are now crying over the loss of Burgess would've been the same group of people blasting the FO had they re-signed him and he got hurt again in 2005.

4. The Eagles knew he had talent but the man just could not stay healthy. Is that so hard to understand? I think it is. But hey, don't let some facts interrupt you guys bitching about them signing a guy who, like Burgess, was injured much of the past two seasons.

yeah but maybe they sign randel el hutchinson arrington peterson or witherspoon instead of howard

As it was, their primary FA target was Bentley, not Howard.  Who knows if they would have gone after both players if they were able to get Bentley?

There is no way they would have been serious players for Randle-El, Arrington, Peterson, or Witherspoon after the CBA completed, with or without Burgess on the team.

Big whoop.  They had and have plenty of money to fill all the holes via free agency if they wanted to do so.

They ignored the holes at SAM and DT completely so far.  Would that have changed if they still had Burgess?  I doubt it.

why is that such a stretch to say that if they didnt sign howard they would have signed another bigger type named free agent instead

no different than if they still had TO they dont sign gaffney and instead get someone else

Because they simply will not pay a linebacker what Peterson and Witherspoon got and what Arrington will get, and because there's no way they would have offered Randle-El more money than the taterskins did.

no every other team can do what you are talking about, they can predict the future of all their young players?

yeah, i re-read that and realized that it's something someone with downs would say.

the point being, teams can predict the future with their young players, and all of them do it 100%?

Are you saying that you really think the Eagles would have gone hard after farging Randle-El or a linebacker if they'd kept Burgess around last off-season?  That's laughable.

Plus, I'm not predicting the future.  I'm predicting the present in an alternate universe.  Try to keep up.

not specifically but they would've had 1 less need so they could've spent that $$$ elsewhere....or they could be really, really, really under the cap instead of just really, really under.

Don't forget that they (re-)signed the top OT in the free agent market too...

I'm saying that it wouldn't have consisted of a top-name LB or Antwaan Randle-El.

Maybe they'd have gone after Andre Carter and/or Rocky Bernard had they lost out on Howard one way or another.

What's been lost in all this is that the Steelers got a 4th round compensatory pick for losing OT Oliver Ross... a guy who this same stupid Eagles FO let go after having him on the squad in 1999!!!

that is incredibly accurate (http://www.nfl.com/players/playerpage/12663)

The Steelers let this guy go and THEN won a Lombardi, without Ross OR the compensatory pick they got for him!

Amazing!
