No one in there looked happy lolWhoever this guy in the Eagles draft room is, he did NOT like the Milton Williams pick
It probably took everything Howie had not to draft a lineman in the 1st, so now it's all lineman. I mean, it's not a bad philsophy. Strength in the trenches win games, and they like a DL rotation. Outside of Sweat our DL is OLD. We do need picks there too. So so many needs,
Not. At. All. The “confused” look at the end is some #### my kids do when they act like they don’t know what I meant.
Howie, Jeff, and Alec Halaby (Head of Analytics) sure looked excited about the pick
This getting analyzed by Eagles Twitter like the Zapruder film. Andy Weidl also identified as one of the “not happy” camp. Perhaps a riff between theHowie, Jeff, and Alec Halaby (Head of Analytics) sure looked excited about the pick

This will be an all-time Eagles meme and poor Williams’ career will be at the center of it. Always something with this team!
It's a 3rd rounder, so...let's not overreact. Let's be happy we HAVE a 3rd round pick and didn't trade it for a one year rental this time.This getting analyzed by Eagles Twitter like the Zapruder film. Andy Weidl also identified as one of the “not happy” camp. Perhaps a riff between the

So basically scouts wanted Robinson and Howie wanted a 6 and Williams. We’ll see I guess.
McNeill is the better player I think from a laymen's POV. I'd have left the 6th just to get that or Robinson.
The picks so far have been fine. The biggest issue with that small part of the video is that it’s 100% not a collaborative effort. It’s Howie just doing it all and doesn’t care about anyone else. I have no issue with that if these guys can play. It’s just crazy that you have 32 teams doing the “let’s get our fist bump celebration for the networks” and we are the ONLY ones with dissension lol. And all eyes are on Williams the 3 picked before him too. Howie better pray they suck lol
Dude was really good. I saw his last ACL injury in Dec. Didn't look great. he's a really great kid though. Guess that means Seamulo is staying at G as the original plans had him replacing Kelce eventually
Ok I'll add to this so he takes one of my guys but Howie hasn't drafted a Florida guy since Cornelius Ingram at TE. Jaylen Watkins doesn't count as he was a Kelly Pick
You also don't see embarrassingly missed tackles and assignments either when watching Smith's film.
Key differences. I don't think Jones was ever gonna come close to the draft hype even if healthy, Achilles in a skill player is completely different from a OL guy. And Sidney Jones lost his confidence when he was here after multiple set backs. Corey Udline wasn't a fan and he was one of Schwartz guys. Johnson has had a major injury and he has lost his confidence. He's definitely a high first rounder without the injuries and played multiple spots on OL too.
Mills was a day 2 guy though but had some character red flag which is why he lasted as long as he did that year.
Also some of the lower divisions like the FCS1 is playing spring games. They are in the playoffs right now I believe so not a lot of time to check those guys out. Add everything up and teams with these late picks are hoping to hit on a few or hoping a guy like they liked slid down far
Probably Robinson. I heard they liked him. They took a gamble hoping he'd be there if they went down a few spots and lost
I don’t know, Moehrigs back had teams second guessing. MRI showed a problem, but probably hard with medical evaluations being limited with Covid restrictions and no combine to get a confident conclusion. TCU is in our backyard and no doubt Dallas would have traded up if they 100 percent wanted him. They may regret it, but a back injury is not something they want to take on.
Maybe. I think most teams who trade up above someone usually have a decent idea of who they are looking at taking. The fit was just too perfect there. It's not a slight on Dallas, they couldn't do anything about it... but I would have been very very surprised if they passed on him there.
Yeah I’m not saying he was off Dallas board by no means. I just think if they had as much confidence in him as others appear to have had, they would have gotten him sooner. They would have got barbecue’d in Texas if they traded the extra picks to move up to get him and then the back turned out to be an issue. In the end, Joseph at CB was much more of a need than a Safety. LV trade up took the option of the two out of the equation.
Then the scouts should have had him higher on the board. I imagine they were all in the same tier, which is why Howie felt fine about trading down. We need all these positions though, so we can't really go wrong no matter what position we take.
Cowboys reached on their picks. McShay last night said the last guy they took he had a 6th round grade on
According to College football news these are the guys Obviously a lot can change but a list I'm jumping up and down for.
Tired of this route though. We have 3 firsts next year (provided Carson does his part). Need to rebuild the secondary next draft.
I don't mind a trade if we are getting a stud who is in a contract dispute or something and wants to come here. FA wise doesn't look great. it's just a lot of older guys on name recognition other then Jamal Adams at Safety if he doesn't resign in SEA
