Yeah I think you do.

I guess you missed that whole why did they draft yet another DE thing me and Murp got into a while back.

Oh right. That was the part where you said DE wasn't a need going into the draft. Yeah, brilliant.

Yeah the one where I said DE was not nearly as grave a need as SS, Lb, RB, FS, Corner.

QuoteMy bad,.

Exactly

Anyone listening to Reese on Eagles Live? He just made me laugh out loud.

What did he say? That he would have preferred Tony's brother Mike?

Great. A PSU RB. He'll be in the league, what, 6 months?

Merrill Reese is estatic, but I can't really get excited about him. I guess he is a decent pick up.

They need to get their ass back in the 3rd round and take Tanard Jackson. Hunt is all fine and dandy, but they realize that backup QB and RB werent a problem last year, right?

well, moats sucks & buck will probably get hurt again so i think backup rb was a need.

But we've still got Buckhalter!

Dillen · April 28, 2007, 10:54:07 PM

It was definitely a need and a good pick, but I would have preferred Jackson. I'm not going to get pissed about it, it's not that big of a deal.

No, he was just super excited about the pick. It was hilarious.

Next time it rains his paper mache knees will fall apart and the issue will resolve itself.

Does the draft start at 11AM or noon tomorrow?

The Birds have no 4th rounders so who cares.

Reid on NFL Network now.

That's what I'm talkin about.

Dude had some 88 career receptions so he fits their style.

QB Eagles · April 28, 2007, 10:59:41 PM

Reid says "we'll see what happens" with the 4 QBs but AJ is definitely #2 and McNabb definitely #1. Gee, I wonder what that means for Holcolmb.

TexasEagle · April 28, 2007, 11:03:32 PM

I don't think they ever wanted Holcomb. They likely HAD to take him and his contract to get Spikes. Can they cut him June 1? What's his cap hit like?

Eaglez · April 28, 2007, 11:05:16 PM

Or Kolb could end up on the IR with an "injury".

I think there is something to this. Especially considering what Hugh said. Seems Holcomb is definately the odd man out.
