With the First Pick in the 2008 NFL Draft, the Philadelphia Eagles Select...

[BigEd76]

If anyone cares:

-- There is no combination of wins and losses that will give the Eagles anything higher than #12 or lower than #19

-- If the Eagles win, the Vikings win (at DEN) and the taterskins win (vs DAL), the Eagles will pick #18

-- If the Eagles win and the taterskins, Vikings and Saints (at CHI) all lose, the Eagles will pick #19

-- If the Eagles win and the Vikings or Saints make the playoffs (taterskins loss + Vikings or Saints win), the Eagles will pick #18 or #19 depending on the uncommon opponents between Philly and Washington (Saints, Seahawks, Buccaneers, Cardinals)

-- To get #12, the Eagles need to lose and have all of the following teams finish 8-8:

Denver (at SD, vs MIN)
Arizona (vs STL)
New Orleans (at CHI)
Houston (vs JAX)
Detroit (at GB)

For each of these six games that doesn't go in the Eagles' favor, the Eagles will be eliminated from getting a spot between 12 and 17...

Nice work. I'm sure most people here do care. Doesn't look much like the Eagles will get up to #12 does it?

I say we're #17.  I would say 18, I think we beat Buffalo and all those teams lose...but I'm just figuring one of those teams lose for us to be 17.

Updating the previous post:

-- If the taterskins and Vikings win, the Eagles will pick #18

-- If the Vikings lose, the Eagles will pick #19

-- If the taterskins lose, the Vikings win and the Cardinals win, the Eagles will pick #18

-- If the taterskins lose, the Vikings win and the Cardinals lose, the Eagles will pick #19

So who is the top rated OG?

He'll be an Eagle.

[QB Eagles]

Minny is mounting a comeback and just tied it up with 2:21 left.

Skins are going to win easy.

Not that it matters, but the Cardinals got it locked up also.

[ice grillin you]

skins are unfortunately gonna be dangerous in the nfc playoffs

my life as i know it is pretty much over for the next two weeks

[QB Eagles]

#19

[ice grillin you]

hey easy (or anyone else that feels like figuring it out) where would the eagles have picked had they lost today

[rjs246]

Only like a pick or two higher I think since a lot of other teams in that area lost today too...

[ice grillin you]

with draft start time change and the first round down to 10 minutes per pick the eagles should make their first selection sometime around 7pm on apr 26th

Michael Griffin was picked at 19 in April.  I would come all over myself if a guy like him was there for the Eagles this year.

#15 if all of the other games had gone the same way

[ice grillin you]

Michael Griffin was picked at 19 in April.

I was a heavy advocate of trading up for Reggie Nelson. He's got a sack, FF, 5 picks and 11 passes knocked down this year. Wouldn't have taken much...
