youre correct sir

[Feva]

I'd rather have Baltimore win that game.  We aren't going to catch Green Bay, and a tied record with Baltimore does us no good...

Exactly why Detroit blowing that game sunday night pissed me off.

[BigEd76]

Probably wouldn't have mattered anyway because Detroit is going to lose out and finish 4-12, and we'd lose the tiebreaker with them if they finished 5-11...

heckert on wip

--admits d line was disappointing this year...must get better

--really likes the young offensive lineman

--says ike effed himself by leaving for atlanta in hopes of starting

--says corey is a fat slob

--says olb is a less important position than most...doesnt sound like they are going to drastically improve that area

that bothers me.  if anything, you can differentiate importance between the WIL and the SAM.  i can't believe, after seeing what Emmons did for them for years, that they don't think the SAM is important.

the olb's are "fine".

Other things from Heckert:

--Nobody cares if the players go to TO's party
--Was asked about Burgess and said they should have signed him.
--Didn't comment on the WR position (was asked about Wayne) but made it seem like they would upgrade the position

[PhillyPhreak54]

That interview was pointless. Heckert couldn't address specifics because all free agents to be are under contract and he wouldn't even rate his top 3 OLBs in the draft because he doesn't want anyone to get a clue on what they're thinking.

And they said they'd take questions from callers....only took 1 question.

Although he did point out that Burgess stunk last year and that Cole has more production for the Birds this year than Burgess did last year. He said they just couldn't keep him on the field.

Who some of the draft sites currently have the Eagles taking in their mocks:

NFL Draft Blitz (12/?) - Marcus McNeill
NFL Draft Countdown (12/14) - Santonio Holmes
Draft Showcase (12/13) - LenDale White
Draft King (12/11) - Derek Hagan
Football's Future (12/8) - Martin Nance
Draft Studio (12/7) - Derek Hagan
Great Blue North (12/2) - LenDale White

[PhillyPhreak54]

Mcneill would be awesome. So would Holmes (returner) or White.

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

LenDale would be a great complement back to Westbrook/Moats.  Doubt the Eagles would draft any RB in the 1st, tho.

i want demeco ryans...hes the troof

demeco ryans bandwagon starts right here right now

[PhillyPhreak54]

I like Ryans... eveytime I watched Bama he was all over the field.

But he'll likely be a late 1st early 2nd guy.

I want a DE in the 1st.

[ice grillin you]

no way he goes anywhere near the second imo...if he drops its to around 25....he may rate that low only because he doesnt have great raw numbers...but he could also jump up big time with a good combine showing...he isnt that big and isnt super fast but all he does is make plays...he will be the best linebacker in this draft
