The only way I wouldn't be pissed if they traded Lito to move up would be to get someone like McKelvin or Gholston.  Other than that it just doesn't seem worth it.  As far as Albert goes, I think there is a decent shot at him being there when they pick.  Including him there are 5 linemen that are surefire 1st rounders so there is a good chance that one will be available.

QB Eagles

Lito will be traded so that the Eagles can move up and grab someone who would have been available at 19 anyway. The sooner we come to peace with that inevitability, the better for our mental health.

...preferably one with two first names like Branden Albert.

He'll probably just change his last name anyway.

i will be pissed if all they get for lito is to move up a few draft slots (yes i know they will get some sort of low round pick(s) as well)

Yep.

And even worse if they trade up for a goddamn OT.

But I am preparing myself for that, because it will happen.

Reid saying the weapons were "pretty good" cinched it for me.  They're going O-Line or D-Line for sure.

I'm 95% sure they're going O-line with the first pick. I leave the 5% margin in the rare case someone falls they just can't pass up.

After that flyers penguins game tonight, i don't care if reid draft fargs a twinkie with the 19th pick.  just put in downie and run crosby.

we probably will trade lito to move up from 19 to 16 and get a zesty ot and some awesome 5th and 6th rounders for 2011 that we'll probably spend on a fourth place olympic cup stacker.

The BIGSTUD

The only way trading Lito to move up is worth it, is if they can get into the top 8. If they can get into the top 8, then they better take Gholston.

I really hope this is all them blowing smoke out their asses, because these scenarios make me want to break things.

Awesome, time to order up one of those blue and yellow jerseys with his name on it.

I was just listening to Ray Diddinger on WIP and he said don't be surprised if the Eagles trade up for Glenn Dorsey or Sedrick Ellis if either on of them falls out of the top ten.  He thinks the Eagles are thin there.  He also said if the Eagles stay put at 19, he expects them to go DB.

Even though adding Ellis or Dorsey seems to be overkill, I wouldn't be against it. Hard to explain why.

I think at this point, DB at 19 would be a mistake unless it is Cromartie, McKelvin or Jenkins. No one else is worth it, maybe Talib.

Ellis or Dorsey woudn't be bad at all, though I think the chance of one of them falling out of the top ten is slim to none.  As far as DB I don't see anybody of value that will likely be there other than Phillips.
