College Players The Eagles Are Interested In

[SD_Eagle5]

I might make that deal if that team could give us back a 4th rounder (no, I'm not kidding) or so also.  Their 1st and 4th for our 1st and 2nd.  There will be a lot of guys spilling into the 4th this year with talent.

It also depends how far we're talking about here.  If we're only talking about moving up to 11 or so, then no way.  If we're talking about 8 or 9, then the 2nd probably has to be part of the deal.

I'd still prefer to stay put or trade back, though... probably.

That would make sense and if Ngata is that good it would be worth it.

I really don't want to see them give up a 2nd rounder in this years draft I think it will be a very valuable pick. If they could give up a 3rd to move up to somewhere say 10 or 11 then they should do it.

I'm a greedy selfish bastich, I don't mind trading the 2nd rounder away, what I mind is having to sit through a whole nother round to make our pick. Sort of ruins draft day.

Ngata sounds like a beast.  I want a huge DT as bad as i want some more running plays.

You are fighting a losing battle.

I'm pretty much with FF here. I would give up a #2 if it meant going up to #8 or somewhere in that area. But if it means going to 11? Negative, ghostrider.

This is a very deep draft at DT. And with the rotation we use at DT and already having the pass rushing DT in Mike Patterson. I dont think it would be worth going up in the draft for a run stuffing DT. When in the second round you can nail down a very good one. Like Gabe Watson, Jesse Mehlona, Claude Wrotten, Johnathan Lewis to name a few. This team would be in a much better postion with the 14th pick to take the best WR in this draft class in Chad Jackson who is a physical freak. And is the fastest recevier in the draft to strech the field. With Pinky coming of a serious injury and G. Lewis really under performing and Gaffeny only on a one year deal. We could really use another WR.

Chad Jackson?!  Good God.

Can't get enough of those Gator Wide Receivers...

X I totally agree with you.  Go for a WR in the first  If Chad Jackson is there at 14 the birds have got to snag him.  I don't know enough about Santonio Holmes. They can definitely score a stud DT in the second round.  The four you mentioned should/could be available when the birds pick in the second round at 45.  I have always followed Mahelona since he is from Hawaii.  He did not have the greatest senior season but he was double teamed a lot and apparently had a poor week at the Senior Bowl.  I don't put a whole lot of stock in that though.

I don't think you can go by that anymore they now play under a different system.  Also what about PSU running backs they haven't had a good track record recently than look at Larry Johnson he was playing as good as any RB in the league by the end of the season.  So just because a guy goes to a certain school doesn't mean you should pass them up.

[xtacy1238]

I totally agree with that. You wouldnt turn down a deal on a Ferarii just cause it was on a used car lot. And how many people out there would not want Darrell Jackson right now? Granted he is just one. Ike Hillard and Travis Taylor are pretty good also. I dont think anyone school is 100% production giant for WR's!

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

Chad Jackson might be an OK pick, but I can't be too pumped about him.  Another possible bust.

Outside of Justice, any of those picks could be potential busts.  OL seems to be one of the safer positions to draft but anybody they draft could be a bust.  WR definately has a higher propensity to be that though.

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

I think the Eagles have the best chance of drafting a bust at WR - far above any other position, except maybe LB.

I know I DON'T want Chad Greenway, Chad Jackson or Santonio Holmes.

Pretty much anyone else in round 1 and I am ok. Give me Ngata or Bunkley and I an more than happy.

[xtacy1238]

Adding a playmaker of Jacksons calibar would be great for this team! What is your objection to him philly phreak?

I am with you on Greenway, but I would be happy if they got Holmes or Jackson they both have a tremendous amount of upside.
