Phillips isn't good value at 19. He should be a 2nd rounder, but will be picked in the 1st since the safeties are terrible this year. I like him and would be all over him at pick 47 or whatever it is, but if you spend a top 20 pick on a safety he better be a hell of an athlete, hell of a hitter, or a ballhawk. He's not any of those things.

I have to be honest I didn't see him play at all this past season, but I did watch him quite a few times 2 years ago.  Judging from that he looked like a guy that could be a real player in this league.

I like the fact that Jerry Rice endorses the guy.  I don't know if he will ever be anything other than a returner and a gimmick player on offense, but I sure hope he ends up becoming an Eagle.

perhaps you could explain sd's reasons for "disliking" it as well since you seem to be so in tune with other peoples minds

Or at the very least eliminate Jackson as a possibility.
Considering last year Kolb, Hunt and Barksdale all came to Philadelphia for a visit...no, don't eliminate Jackson.

Jeff Otah's bio is less than impressive:

QuoteStrengths:
Has outstanding size with a huge frame and long arms...Great athlete with terrific quickness...Very light on his feet...Extremely strong and powerful...Is physical and aggressive...Mobile with nice range...Has a good initial punch..Shows the ability to recover when beat...Offers some versatility...Still improving and has major upside.


Weaknesses:
Very raw and might be a bit of a project...Has some trouble with quickness...Hand use is sub par...Does not always play with proper leverage...He needs to work on getting in better shape...Work ethic and desire have been questioned...Has some trouble with power...Only has two years of experience against top DI competition.

Did Steuber write that?

my favorite part is that three different strengths are "terrific quickness, light on feet, mobile with nice range"

basically they tried to say the same things as many times as possible.

But he also has trouble with quickness.  And power.  And staying in shape.

I wonder if he also likes to purchase the company of slootz like Justice.

Did you just become a Philadelphia fan yesterday??


Also, because we're going to actually end up taking half those guys


Hell I won't even be surprised if we draft that dude that died

Calm down there guy, don't take it out on me.  I have already come to terms with the fact they are taking at least 5 offensive linemen.
