Anybody else see Dwayne Jarrret run right by Leon Hall?

Just goes to show you game speed is a whole other thing than timed speed.

Leon Hall to the Bengals.

Giant fans are pissed.  :-D

That can only be a good thing.

I heard that Branch's stock was falling, but I can't believe that he is falling this far.  If the Eagles didn't take DTs in the first the last two years I would love for them to get him.

I never thought of Alan Branch being remotely close to the Eagles pick at 26. If that big bastich is there, I don't know how I would feel if they nabbed him. I still think I want a safety more than anything, but at that point, is Branch a much more value-ridden pick?

He certainly would be the run stuffer Eagles fans have been craving for years.

That's the thing though.  The Eagles never ever get a run stuffer.  They only get tackles that only outweigh their DEs by less than twenty pounds.

Anyone find it funny that Keyshawn is talking about the importance of good character?

Oh the irony.

At least he doesn't get arrested though.

I'm thinking if Quinn somehow makes it to 26, you try to get the Browns, Lions, or Vikings to pay through the nose to move up and get him, otherwise you go Nelson, Griffin, Branch, Merriweather, Meachum, Bowe, in that order.

If he's the highest player on the board, they have to take him. Regardless of what positions they have drafted in the past. Like when DET took Johnson...despite taking WRs like crazy, they took BPA.

I want a safety, but if Branch is there they almost have to take him. They need defensive players bad.

So long as it isn't a goddamn OL or that Olson schmuck...

Hopefully the Eagles are getting offers to trade out. Keep falling, QUinn.

Its sickening to say, but Dallas is in prime position to get some picks. They sit at 22. One ahead of the Chiefs who need a QB.

At this point, I can't see Quinn falling past the Chiefs at 23.  They can't be in love with Huard... and even though they grabbed Brody Croyle last year, they couldn't have imagined Quinn being anywhere near their reach.

The Eagles could really benefit from this kids miss(ed)fortune.  I know the Browns want him and if the Eagles trade with them they will get a pick high in whatever subsequent rounds.

I don't know about that. They are also hurting bad for WR help. They've been pimping Croyle hard too all offseaon.
