I mean Brown/Curtis/Avant/Baskett are not a bad 2-5 group. The problem is that there's nothing resembling a #1 there.

What's everyone's thoughts on Donnie Avery?

Drunkmasterflex · April 24, 2008, 02:03:26 AM

About all that I know about him is that he is really fast.

avery could be a second day pick that they take strictly to be a returner

Most things I have read have him going in the 2nd or 3rd round.

any gm that takes him in the second round should immediately be fired....third is even pushing it

Would anyone be opposed to the Eagles giving up Lito and a shteinload of draft picks to get Chris Long? I remember reading that the Rams were one of the teams interested in Lito...

Thanks to Mike Mamula, I'm severely jaded with regards to giving up the farm for a white defensive lineman.

why would you do that anyway when you could have done the same thing to get jared allen whose proven...long could easily be a bust

KC wanted the Vikes picks over the Eagles.
Long is younger by a few years, and I think the closest to a "sure thing" that there is in this draft.
And more importantly to the Eagles FO...his contract would probably cost less then Jared Allens, and he drinks less (or gets caught less).

It aint gonna happen but whatever.

ice grillin you · April 24, 2008, 09:19:12 AM

long is not even close to a sure thing...and hes best suited in a 3-4...furthermore theres no player in this entire draft worth trading lito and a "shteinload" of draft picks for....if you are gonna do that you do it for a proven player

and you can make up all kinds of reasons why youd take chris long over jared allen except no matter what you say jared allen is tne times the player chris long is...who the farg is chris long anyway?

Munson · April 24, 2008, 09:22:28 AM

I wasn't saying why I'D take him over Allen, I was saying why the Eagles FO would be more willing to trade up for Long then the would trade for Allen. I wanted them to trade for Allen but knew better then to expect or hope for it.

Long's a pretty athletic dude, and with his size he could easily play in the 4-3. Like I said it's just a dream I have since I don't trust them to get good value for Lito as it is.
