Howie made his bed. Feel like you could have traded back into late 1st or early 2nd. To take him at this point, he has to be better than Lamb.
Dude, who did you think was going to take him in the 1st round?I’m all good now. Huge to get him staying pat. Big need and a good young WR to grow with Wentz.
He won't be Jordan Matthews. Might not work out, but it's a swing for the fence and I like that about it. Outside WR with speed, they can come back for one of my available slot options later on.Why does this feel like Jordan Mathews 2.0
Not a fan of takes like this. Look at the first 20 picks. There’a always guys who go that “could have been had later if you listened to people”Howie made his bed. Feel like you could have traded back into late 1st or early 2nd. To take him at this point, he has to be better than Lamb.
I get the idea of getting your guy if you like him.I’m all good now. Huge to get him staying pat. Big need and a good young WR to grow with Wentz.
Agreed..Horrible pick..you get another first next year though...so I guess you have that.....Terrible. Those highlights showed some awful tackling. I saw some tape on him vs Ohio State and their top Corner Okuda (SP) and he looked a lot slower against him and teams vs better defenses. Could've traded back gotten more assets and taken him
Why do you like Reagor over Jefferson? Curious I haven’t seen much of him.Not a fan of takes like this. Look at the first 20 picks. There’a always guys who go that “could have been had later if you listened to people”
His tape and speed are what we need.
Who did you think was taking Thomas as the first OL? Why did Simmons slip? Ruggs over Lamb? Same story every year with takes like these.Dude, who did you think was going to take him in the 1st round?
Reagor is more of a slot in the NFL not really an outside guy. DeSean is actually a lot stronger then he looks though. Reagor is another all athlete avg WR one trick ponyHe won't be Jordan Matthews. Might not work out, but it's a swing for the fence and I like that about it. Outside WR with speed, they can come back for one of my available slot options later on.
I mean yes, you can get too cute trading back and trying to maximize value but how many people had him going in the first?Not a fan of takes like this. Look at the first 20 picks. There’a always guys who go that “could have been had later if you listened to people”

Jefferson is surrounded by studs across the board. Nothing he does stands out and he seems almost ordinary.Why do you like Reagor over Jefferson? Curious I haven’t seen much of him.
I'm not Furious but I am a little puzzled.Eagles fans should be furious right now. There are at least 10-12 players I would have taken over Reagor. 3 of them are WR.
I've been away from here for over a month but I was on an Eagles Facebook group saying there's 3 days I didn't want at all. Reagor/Lamb/Hamler. The tape looks good but further inspection the tackling is downright painful to watch and the defense is non existent. What came out to me the most was his play vs Ohio State he looked a lot slower against a good defense.Eagles fans should be furious right now. There are at least 10-12 players I would have taken over Reagor. 3 of them are WR.
Sure but let’s be fair it’s not an exact science.Jefferson to Vikings one pick after us. If Reagor isn't the best WR between Jefferson, Reagor, and Lamb, Howie really ####ed up
I don't like Hamelr at all Reagor/Hamler was one of my worst case scenarios. Hamler is more athlete than WR. Very inconsistent too. Was also bullied by bigger more physical corners in collegeGo get KJ in the second and double up on our chances of hitting and I like it.
Dak may have like 1.5 seconds to throw the ball off of our DTs alone. Will be interesting match-ups when they play. Watching the 2nd game between Eagles and Dallas is pretty much how the next few years will look. WRs can look great open, but won't mean a ton if Dak is getting destroyed by Fletcher and Hargrave will be in that backfield pretty much every playGonna need secondary help to stop Dallas' WR.
Agreed..what a jokeEagles fans should be furious right now. There are at least 10-12 players I would have taken over Reagor. 3 of them are WR.
Huh?....nice draft bruh....lol...first round even....Dak may have like 1.5 seconds to throw the ball off of our DTs alone. Will be interesting match-ups when they play.

now this is finally a good post from you. 1 round and you already have judged the draft. Definitely an informed fan here, and not some d-bag Dallas wanna be fan. I'll be enjoying my winnings betting against Dallas next year and watching them miss the playoffs againHuh?....nice draft bruh....lol...first round even....
I wanted Lamb too, no excuse for not getting him.I’m so confused.
Hope he’s not another JJAW.
I really wanted Lamb.
And just watch him. The speed, acceleration and balance are clear as day.okay, read up on Reager and I like this pick better than I did 10 minutes ago. cautiously optimistic as a Desean1.0 clone in speed and potential usage, not the older, recent model.
This is EXACTLY why you pick your guy when you get a chance.Niners gave up 3 picks to move up 6 spots to take Aiyuk, so there was no way we had a shot at him in the 2nd, like some where hoping that him or Hamler would be our WR if we took one in that round.
agree with this. I have seen him compared more with DK Metcalf or Mecole Hardman. Only worry i have is can he beat press coverage, but honestly can't think of a better guy for him to learn from than D-Jax in how to beat physical coverageI wanted Lamb too, no excuse for not getting him.
We need speed who can play inside and outside and got that and gave up nothing.
Comparing him to JJAW is, well, puzzling. Like really strange. Not the same type at all. Completely opposite
yeah Aiyuk would have been fun, but i guess the Eagles really loved Raegor. His potential is up there with explosive playNiners gave up 3 picks to move up 6 spots to take Aiyuk, so there was no way we had a shot at him in the 2nd, like some where hoping that him or Hamler would be our WR if we took one in that round.
I agree with what your saying. But any pick is on Howie.I mean it's a home run pick. High ceiling but also seems like low floor. Seeing him run by non-NFL CBs isn't any more useful than his 4.47 40. I think deciding if a guy is a great pick or a bust on draft night is a fool's errand. All I really do is look at value and for that, the Eagles didn't do well. Nobody will remember if he becomes Desean 2.0 but if he doesn't it will be magnified. Similar with Lamb, I'm not saying he'll be the best but arguably #1 receiver was on the board and theoretically available to them at a cost and they elected to stay put.
Time will tell how it all plays out. In some respects, I give them credit for going outside the box. But at this point, it's all on Howie. This draft seems incredibly important to his future and this pick seems like it is likely to define it.
Philly fans never disappoint.now this is finally a good post from you. 1 round and you already have judged the draft. Definitely an informed fan here, and not some d-bag Dallas wanna be fan. I'll be enjoying my winnings betting against Dallas next year and watching them miss the playoffs again
Higgins isn't bad, but i would really like Shenault. Guy has a huge upside potential as well.Wouldn't mind seeing them trade up to get get Tee Higgins to hedge their bets a bit. Plus I like him better than Raegor.
