Danny Watkins, Philadelphia Eagle

What article is that from?

That one on the internet.

I'm just glad the wait is over and we know who their next first round bust is.

I just read through the entire thread. This made me chuckle.

[ice grillin you]

he can start at right guard from day one, so i guess that negates his age a little bit

ESPN says the kid is mean and ready to start, and points out that he'll be working the right side--Vick's back--which is interesting to note. Interesting.

But IGY doesn't like the pick so I'm not sold.

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.

evan mathis:  ""Danny [Watkins] is a good person it just seemed like his heart might not have been in football," Mathis said. "If it was, I think he was putting too much pressure on himself. "

so which was it, he really didn't care about football or he cared too much that he put too much pressure on himself?

[General_Failure]

He plays football because it pays the bills, but at night he dreams of riding a moose, fire ax in hand, against a deadly inferno.

sounds like evan mathis doesnt know shtein about shtein and just likes to hear himself talk (and tweet)

When you have a 97 rating in Madden you do whatever you want.

[Zanshin]

Haha. True. The ratings czar must have been smoking crack that day.

Mathis routinely grades out as one of the top OG's in the league.

On a related note - Kelce was ProFootballFocus' highest graded C in the pre-season.

[General_Failure]

Typical blame-shifting bullsh- wait what?

[Rome]

Gotta give the little bookworm credit for admitting he farged up with Watkins.    He looks like he got 2012 & 2013 right, though, so another two or three years worth of drafts plus some free agent wins and this team might not be a total embarrassment.

Listened to the howie show on the way home. Merrill Reese was there too, they interviewed Kendricks. Howie didn't take ALL the blame for that pick, he said the focus was winning now and they took need rather than BPA. His other comments make it seem like it was both him and Andy's fault.

its good that someone made a first round selection for an nfl team 25 seconds after he was working in the accounting department
