Uh-huh.

What's wrong with them having a closer look? What if he's going to be a very dynamic NFL player?

Great news depending on how far he falls.

As a second round pick? Nah. If he falls to the 3rd I'd take him in a second. He can play in the return game as well as a speedy receiver in certain plays on offense.

Eventually he'd fill the role of Pinkston as the speed guy that stretches the field.

Sinorice Moss will not fall into the 3rd round. C'mon, man. Make an effort to live in reality here.

I wasnt aware that a "

" meant I was questioning the FO for looking at him. By all means, look.

Personally, I dont like the guy. He's only racked up 1000 yards....in his entire collegiate career. People think he is better than he is because of his name, and his school. There will be better receivers available in the 3rd or 4th round. If he were available at 45, I'd say take a look. Then take a pass.

PoopyfaceMcGee · April 11, 2006, 08:10:37 PM

Well, I'd have to assume that the FO can evaluate him more thoroughly than you or I, and there's no reason to think he wouldn't be a great value pick at #45. That said, I couldn't stand it if they drafted him at #14.

What exactly do you like about him? Seriously...

I don't think he will either, but better chance of him going 3rd than in the first.

It's not a longshot either. Holmes, Jackson, Hagan, Avant, Stovall are all better receivers, among others.

I like that he would give the Eagles a dedicated option in the return game immediately, even if he never significantly contributes as a WR. Who's going to return punts for the Eagles this year... Lito? Westbrook? Ugh.

Don't get me wrong... I'm not dangling from his dangle like IGY is, but I can see what he might bring to the table.

He's speedy, and that counts for something as a receiver. As long as your hands don't suck, and his don't.

Ha.

PoopyfaceMcGee · April 11, 2006, 08:53:02 PM

Wow. How would they manage to draft him again?

PhillyPhanInDC · April 11, 2006, 09:34:08 PM

I'm not reading shtein into that. Blowing smoke.

PoopyfaceMcGee · April 11, 2006, 09:35:40 PM

Maybe they want to see how Justice compares to him in the drills they've set up.
