reach is a nerded up draftnik term and you should have a filter for it

[MURP]

The idea of a reach is pretty ridiculous.

see: John Harris

methinks you're confusing "reach" with "bust".

nah, just in that case the two were synonymous.

reach is a nerded up draftnik term and you should have a filter for it

what is the non-nerded up term for selecting a player higher in the draft than scouts and/or other teams would have selected them in?

[ice grillin you]

there isnt one...its called a draft pick

reach is a term that wannabe gm's like mel kiper and gay fans at draft parties who are trying to sound smart drop


is there a term for not picking a guy at a spot hes supposed to go at...whats the opposite of a reach?

you got a lot of anger against mel.

a special surprise.

a special surprise.

a reach around?

from Mel.

"reach" is kiper's way of saying that a team picked a guy way earlier than his mock draft predicted...so he'd rather say the team screwed up than admit he had the player ranked too low.

Now there's a name that should be filtered.

[PhillyPhreak54]

If we drafted Sinorice Moss the Romes on ES heads would explode. They want him to team up with his brother in Washington.

I don't know how I'd feel if they drafted him. He could be a very good pR but WR? I don't know.

[rjs246]

How are they gonna draft him? They don't have a 1st rounder and their 2nd rounder is pretty late. He'll be long gone before the Skins get a chance to pick him.

[PhillyPhreak54]

They're stupid. They think they'll trade up for him.

[rjs246]

Plus what are they gonna do? Massively overpay two free agent WRs and then draft another one in the first round? Makes perfect sense. Christ, those monkeys are farging idiots.

[PhillyPhreak54]

They will run the first 3 OL 3 h-back 4 WR set in NFL history.

Blockers? Who needs blockers? Let Pro Bowler Jason Campbell air it out!

Tony Pauline (TFY Draft.com) on Eagles Live:

- How do the players pro-days affect the Eagles? Well, now Winston Justice and Lendale White will likely be there at 14 now where they might not have been earlier.

- White came in too heavy, but would fill a need.

- Justice's interview didn't go well. He lacked the killer instinct

- Brodrick Bunkley is a top 12 player due to his workouts

- Kamerion Wimbley has gone fron a fringe 1st rounder to a top half of the first round guy (my guess is that he will go to a 3-4 team because he is a rush OLB not a DE)

- AJ Hawk is the best defensive player in the draft

- Brodrick Bunkley would be a great pick if he is there at 14. He is the second best DT

- Would the Eagles spend another 1st round pick on an undersized pass rushing DT after doing that last year?

- DT depth in draft is not deep. Some of the guys later on have character issues like Gabe Watson.

- A great year for OLBs. Bobby Carpenter may not be there in the 2nd round for the Eagles. He is a perfect SAM. They would likely have to trade up. Likely gone in the 1st ten picks of the second round.

- Clint Ingram from OK is another SAM to watch out for (6'1 244)

- Usually there are 30-35 WRs drafted but teams are struggling to fill a 25 man board with WRs. Poor class overall depth wise.

- Eagles LOVE Maurice Stovall's height, YAC and blocking. Could be the Birds #2 pick.

- Most personnel guys love the second and third round guys. Think the draft is very deep in the middle rounds and that first day talent can spill over into the 4th round. So the Eagles having 6 picks in the first four rounds is very good.
