Danny Watkins, Philadelphia Eagle

Whoever was doing the WIP draft show said fatty could move Herremans to LT and and put Watkins at G. 

[Munson]

Drunk and don't feel like reading through so I'm sure this has been said but, hopefully this means they're targeting Awesome-O at CB when free agency opens up. It was a need pick and I'm okay with it, just a *yawn*, would have liked Smith there. Whateva.


Get Nhamdi!

[Don Ho]

They get Nhamdi, farg the draft.  Hell draft OJ Simpson and Charles Manson for all we care.

I'd just as soon have Justice at RT as Herremans at LT. I always thought RT was Peter's most natural position but having a lefty at QB negates some of that.

Eagles don't like having to deal with Rosenhaus though.

[Don Ho]

I keep forgetting the Rosenhaus part of the deal.

[Eagaholic]

He's not Nnamdi's agent, just OJ and Chuck's.

   I was always curious how Manson was able to avoid the death penalty.

What's with this rumor about the birds dealing for Patrick Peterson who the Cards took at #5?   Crock of shtein?

I don't understand how anyone can bitch about this pick. Sure he's old as dirt and big and white and boring but do any of you remember Kolb and Vick getting the shtein kicked out of them last year? A CB would have been great but interior line is a huge need and they filled it. Stop griping you farging women.

Did you get up this early to watch the royal wedding?

[rjs246]

Tornadoes canceled my flight last night so I'm up and bored at the airport to try to catch a new flight. You care.

I have no idea how good this guy is because I don't watch any Baylor games. The pessimism comes from the fact that he'll be 27 once the season starts and has only been playing football for 4 years. And this pick wreaks of Andy/Joe/Howie's "we're smarter than everyone else" mentality. I'm fine with the pick because the word is that he's nasty, tough, versatile, and can step right in. In reality I think a lot of fans would be fine with this pick if the Eagles were able to address defense prior to the draft.

[QB Eagles]

And this pick wreaks of Andy/Joe/Howie's "we're smarter than everyone else" mentality.

I don't see it. The guy was projected to be drafted in the 1st pretty close to where the Eagles took him, and he plays a position that was as glaring of a need for them as anything else. People on CF might have wanted someone else, but this pick isn't one of the FO's frequent head-scratchers.

Cant say I love or hate this pick. Agree with rjs RG was a huge need.  That being said I wouldhave rather it been Jordan
