Wow. How would they manage to draft him again?

Mahe and our first for the Saints' first. Duh.

My only thing with Moss is his production other than his Senior year there isn't much to go on and it is not like he was even a TD machine this season. How many did he have 6? I think he has some serious potential I am with FF if they could get him in the second or trade down into the late first by all means scoop him up.

Well, I didn't even say "by all means"... I just don't understand what people could have against the guy? So what if he's short? It doesn't matter if the kid can ball, right?

its amazing what 4.3 speed and the blood of another "Moss" will do for u...even if you were just average in college

Yeah, well I did; what I am saying is I would not mind at all if they took him late in the first or in the second, I just don't want him at #14.

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

Good point. Plus they are obviously investigating every player who they like and has a remote chance of dropping to where they could trade up for him. even though the chances of Brick dropping to where they could get him are slim. Very slim.

As for Sinorice Moss? I can't say I hate the dude or anything, but if he can make plays then he can make plays. His brother is short as is Steve Smith. But I don't want any part of him in round 1.

QuoteEagles | Team expected to visit with D. Ferguson
Tue, 11 Apr 2006 17:08:33 -0700

Adam Caplan, of Pro Football News and Injury Report, reports University of Virginia OT D'Brickashaw Ferguson is expected to visit with the Philadelphia Eagles Wednesday, April 12.

You shteintin' me?

As has already been discussed... it is possible that Ferguson is atop the overall draft board of the Eagles (and even more possible he's the top OL on their board), and if they really are planning on drafting Winston Justice, they want to see how he stacks up to Ferguson in their private workouts.

Also... The Eagles will be bringing in about a dozen draft prospects this week for visits. The list will include Notre Dame wide receiver Maurice Stovall, who is a projected second or third rounder, and Penn State defensive tackle Scott Paxson, a likely second-day pick.

(from scout.com)

Paxson has a better chance to be a quality NFL player than does Hali, IMO.

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.

you illin dukes

hes not going to but for the sake of argument lets say he gets to the eagles in the second...if they dont take him there andy need to gets fired on the spot

mel kiper made a good observation last night...said that he would be the perfect pick for the steelers as he would be a nice replacement for randel el...as i said on the board last week hes reandel el on crack...there might be better wr's in the draft but there are not to many better playmakers...its kinda like who would you rather have (in their prime of course)...keyshawn the better wr or steve smith the better playmaker

we all know what the eagles need mroe than anything right now on both sides of the ball is playmakers...guys that have to be accounted for when they step on the field...moss is one of those guys

Didn't you already say that if the Eagles pass on Rocky McIntosh at #45, Reid should be fired? What if they're both there? What in the hell is Reid supposed to do? Ha.

As for the Steelers, you really think they want another Randle-El? Not really. They want another RECEIVER to go with Ward, not a gadget guy. Yes, they won the Super Bowl, but do you think they were happy with the production from Randle-El as a starter? How could they be?

They were glad to let him walk, and they're unlikely to really want to replace him with a similar player.

reese125 · April 12, 2006, 08:29:31 AM

I dont know if I would go as far to say that they were happy to let him walk. He brings "some" production to his resume. His contract was up, he made the plays in the Superbowl to wow the other coaches and FO's in the league, so his price skyrocketed---perfect timing. If he didnt make those plays he made, the Steelers would of retained him at a much lower cost, and there wouldnt of been nearly the battle there was to sign this guy.

im pretty sure i never said he should be fired...also if i remeber correctly i was saying i want moss in the first and rocky in the second...anyway its not even an issue...they both wont be there when the eagles make their second pick

im not sure they 'let him go'...when the skins jump youre gonna lose your player period...but really they gave up on the notion they could keep him the minute the superbowl was over...the steelers just dont get into bidding wars for anyone

also moss and randel el arent gadget guys...they are/will be nfl wr's...az hakim is a gadget guy

its not like the steelers are in need of a ton of players or they are in the top ten...they just wont the superbowl and pick 32...they would be thrilled to be able to get a talent like moss at 31...and if he doesnt pan out who cares

reese125 · April 12, 2006, 08:47:22 AM

az hakim is a gadget guy

a guy thats scored plenty more TD's than El will probably make in his career...pretty good gadget guy in St. Louis huh?

MURP · April 12, 2006, 08:54:21 AM

wait... "gadget guy" is an acceptable football term but "trap game" isnt? ha. join us nerds IGY.
