Eagles 2009 Draft Thread

rjs246 · November 23, 2008, 05:14:26 PM

Ed says that the Birds have the 13th pick right now. Carolina is getting spanked by Atlanta, so that's good. What are the team's biggest needs?

I say these are the needs (in order, sort of):
Offensive Tackle
Safety
DT (not a first round penetrator, a mean big body run stuffer)
RB
QB
LB

how about they take the best player on the board thats not a running back or cornerback?

It's obvious that our back up QB isn't panning out so we should make that our #1 priority...a back up QB

...anything above that is just butta.

@ mussa: Coach goes without saying. WR is not a problem at this point, or at least not a top five problem. shtein, RB is more of an issue at this point than WR. Westbrook is INJURY PRONE and Buckhalter is INJURY PRONE and Booker is worthless. I would have included FB in my list above but they don't really need to use the draft for that if they don't want to.

Honestly, OL, DL and Safety (followed closely by RB and LB) are the positions that they need to concentrate on and fix immediately.

Trade Donovan to Minnesota for Chester Taylor.

That at least takes the pressure off that position and Westbrook. We'd finally have our Thunder.

It's obvious we're not going to have Donovan so...maybe we can kidnap Matt Ryan somehow.

retro uniforms
doesn't matter if they replace them with Asians, so say what you mean: more black players
smarter coach

This is admittedly a work in progress.

You voted for the nice guy and not the angry POW.

Make your bed and sleep in it, pansy.

Not if you like rifles and chaos he's not.

Barack needs to invade the Novacare and stage a blood coup.
