7 - LB Jamar Chaney, Mississippi State
7 - DT Jeff Owens, Georgia
7 - S Kurt Coleman, Ohio State

I give it a B-/C+...The D is gonna be infused with all sorts of youth now, and im curious who starts on opening day. I like the pickups on offense - especially Cooper.

C. Not sure how you could assume that it's much better or worse than average, overall.

QB Eagles

I like that they drafted so many players instead of trading the picks away. Can replace some of the losers who have stuck around from the last few drafts with younger losers who at least have a chance of becoming good.

Overall a c-
1 - DE Brandon Graham, Michigan  B+(just think he would have gone after JPP and Morgan)
2 - FS Nate Allen, USF(A-: I really liked him at this spot)
3 - DE New TO, Washington(D-: Sorry DonHo, dude was a reach at the 3 spot, plus they farged up a million trade backs)
4 - CB Trevard Lindley, Kentucky(B-: Guy was 1st round talent last year, had a bad year, injuries, and zesty 40speed)
4 - LB Keenan Clayon, Oklahoma(C-:  know nothing about the guy, but he reminds me of Quentin Caver)
4 - QB Mike Kafka, Northwestern(B + : Backup to Vick, he has the tools, and was annoying as farg to watch play against other teams, he's mobile and has a good arm. )
4 - TE Clay Harbor, Missouri State(B+ Mainly because he's getting mad love from every scout i've seen review him)
5 - DE Ricky Sapp, Clemson(A:  Great pick, may have knee issues and thats why he fell, but Good pick, and the new Joker)
5 - WR Riley Cooper, Florida(C- :  Not interested  in Gasperson again, but at FL)
6 - RB Charles Scott, LSU(B+  Really liked him at LSU, power runner, great value)
7 - LB Jamar Chaney, Mississippi State( C  I dont know shtein about this guy, or teh other two after, so they all get C's
7 - DT Jeff Owens, Georgia
7 - S Kurt Coleman, Ohio State

brandon graham – solid pick who has a chance to get to the qb...but im looking for more than solid when you trade up in the first round...graham isnt horrible but there were much better directions to head in – C

nate allen – another solid pick...again i thought there were much better players in general and like players at allens position that could have been gotten later – B-

soweegian – if you like the guy i get it....but they had him on lock at the exclusion of way to many other players and as many times as they moved back to get him he still was going to last until saturday and possibly as late as the 6th round - D

trevard lindley – dont know anything about him but supposedly has second round talent and made a mistake coming back to college...potential is there to be a antoine winfield lock down corner type...me likes – B+

kennan clayton – not really sure where he fits...small and if youre gonna be small you better have REALLY good measureables and this guy doesn't - D

mike kafka – classic andy reid pick...i think this was uneccessary at this point but i will trust the big guy for now and its always nice to have a developmental guy as your third – C+

clay harbor – again a case of there being better players on the board...time will tell on this one but he has potential – C

ricky sapp – possible steal...to get a guy with this kind of explosiveness this late is great – A

riley cooper – fits perfectly as a fourth wr...should be a nice red zone piece for cobb – B-

charles scott – probably as good as you can do with an end of 6th round selection...the guy is not your typical big back in that he will make some people miss him if he gets thru the hole – B+

jamar chaney – really fast multi purpose linebacker  - B+

jeff owens – who knows – C+

kurt coleman – seems like could be a good gunner/all around special teams player - B


overall i give it a C+

the best picks were made at the bottom of the draft and those players are never guarantees...where it counted most i feel like they came up somewhat short
i can take a phrase thats rarely heard...flip it....now its a daily word

igy gettin it done like warrick

Solid B I really like what they have done on day 3.  Not sure about the kid from OU, but everyone else I like.  I don't know really anything about Clay Harbor other than what I have read, but at least he has good measurables.  

They seemed to add guys that all have a ton of potential....but have injury concerns.  

My favorite pick perhaps of their entire draft is Kafka.  I just really like the way the kid plays.

B- for now.  I'm not as giddy about the picks as ESPN is but they definitely addressed the defense.  There should be some OK UDFAs coming to camp too...

C. I see nobody to get particularly excited about.

The BIGSTUD

I loved the first 2 picks pretty much as much as any one-two in the Reid era except maybe last year. I loved Maclin and McCoy. Berry was my #1 want, but that was totally unrealistic. I wanted Weatherspoon too, but after Sims was added, that was unrealistic as well. So after them it was Thomas, Morgan, Graham. They got one of the 3 I really wanted, and then ended up getting a top 3 safety in the draft. The two biggest needs going in were addressed in a major way. Loved it.

Te'o is still a head-scratcher, but I'll give him a shot and rip the pick and player if/when he sucks. Other than him, I liked most of the rest of the picks a lot. The only thing was I would have preferred more of a SAM linebacker instead of Clayton, but it seems the Eagles put a big emphasis on athletic guys that could cover TEs in this draft. Can't say I blame them. The Eagles lack of covering the TE has been well-known for years now.

B

I know I am supposed to defend Teo but he would have been there today in the fourth.  I was as shocked as the rest of you.  From what I'm hearing he's a helluva hard worker, coaches love him, teammates loved him, brings his lunch pail to work, mellow off the field, psycho on.  With that said I am still very surprised.  Rumblings here on Thursday was teams were looking at him in the late second or somewhere in the third.

Happy with Graham and love Allen and his smarts.

If Sapp is healthy, watch out.

Charles Scott could be the steal of 2010 for the birds.

so you cant rip bad picks until they become bad players but you can love picks before they become good players?

3 - DE New TO, Washington(D-: Sorry DonHo, dude was a reach at the 3 spot, plus they farged up a million trade backs)

So glad we went surfing last night after they made this pick.  After reading the posts late last night when I got home in response to this selection I was ready to book a one way ticket to the leper colony on Molokai to live out the rest of my days.  Actually I just booked a ticket for Hamels.

Tell your lady I just saw Sawyer from LOST at the coffee shop next to The Shack.  He is actually a very nice guy.
