Mel Kiper's mock on Sportscenter has them getting Beanie Wells and the OT from Old Miss....

Edit: nm, didn't see this already being discussed in the NFL section.

If you have an EMB login, Tommy (ge99) started his annual topic on players the Eagles have met, brought to Philly, etc.

hi

Included in his first batch of names are Maualuga, Pettigrew, Graham Harrell and Clay Matthews Jr.

No thanks too close to Mamula

The only thing worse than Mamula is

25. Jon Harris, DE, Philadelphia Eagles (1997)
Billy Milner and Terrence Flagler were two busts. Johnny Rodgers is in the mix, too, but Harris lives in infamy in the minds of Eagles fans. Once proclaimed as another Ed "Too Tall" Jones by then coach Ray Rhodes, Harris wasn't even as good as Jones' shadow. It was an odd pick in the first place. Harris had started only 19 games in college and had the résumé of a middle-round prospect. He stunk it up with the Eagles and was dealt to Green Bay before the 1999 season in exchange for their own first-round bust from the 1996 draft, John Michels. But Harris never made the team, and ended up in forced retirement after only two seasons and two sacks.

I love Alphonso Smith but they shouldn't be spending a first round pick on a CB, which is what it would require to get him.

if B.J. Raji is any good. get him. a 1 and a 3 or whatever it takes. this is me just looking at his weight and some (crappy) mel kiper and espn info. but still. never happen with that stud laws we have and blitzing our mike bc of patterson.

He's as good as picked by Reidco then.

Lito's gonna be gone and Blowselio is an UFA. Jack Batguano is still a long shot because of the injury deal.

They better at least think about CB unless they somehow address it in FA again (which I doubt they will).

Tim Ryan and Pat Kirwan on Sirius are very big on this guy and were talking about this him at the Senior Bowl and said he was a men among boys out there, strong as hell, and blowing past everyone.

I wouldnt have a problem going DT for a guy like this--but the Eagles having bigger concerns

Did anyone see the Senior Bowl? Once again the NFL Network strikes again.

rjs246 · January 25, 2009, 07:26:09 AM

Again?

PoopyfaceMcGee · January 25, 2009, 07:32:27 AM

Again they again strike again, again.

General_Failure · January 25, 2009, 09:21:54 AM

Not again.
