OT: Philadelphia Eagles (NFL): Don't Cry Because It's Over, Smile Because it Happened (Offseason - 2023)

[Chinatown88]

I'm out on this lad. But okay.

 

[FLYguy3911]

Wow. Was hoping he'd be on the short list at 30.

 

[achdumeingute]

It's like being a Flyers fan, but in blue.

Flyers are more Raiders at this point... Lions actually can win games.

 

[ponder719]

Funny enough, or probably not, I’m a Pens fan lol

However Pirates and 6’ers fan, as well.

Pirates wouldn't be that far off. Think of your late 90s through early 2010s, but starting in 1940 and running through now.

Broderick Jones

You could see why I was confused lol ok makes sense

9, 30, 62, 66, then the 7th rd and signing the top UDFAs.

Stoutland was a big hint we were talking Oline. GOAT Oline coach.

Thank you Chip Kelly

Wait are we talking about Carter?

No but um. You know how I hate comps to great players?

In 2021, I watched Jalen Carter and thought, "His flashes look like Jerome Brown." Those early 90s Eagles defenses are my favorite thing in the history of sports so I do NOT say that lightly.

 

[JoemAvs]

Will McDonald?
Alright...

 

[DancingPanther]

Big W for this kid honestly

 

[achdumeingute]

They're not going to pay Swift and they want more than one RB. I'm not saying it's a GOOD rationale. But that's what I think it is.

They are replacing Williams. But Gibbs is a HR.

I mean, I KNOW RB is devalued, but we haven't seen a RB that "can't be caught" on our team in a while. Our guys can get yards...but won't break long TDS.

 

[The Grim Reaper]

Highlights against that Iowa offense is just cheating

 

[Rebels57]

Eagles front office with another heist

 

[Chinatown88]

HOLY SHIT

 

[BrindamoursNose]

I still can't get over it

Oh shit. Williams is in NO now. I completely forgot.

Still not doing it, but the context helps. Thanks.

 

[FLYguy3911]

Well they said he wasn't gonna make it to 30.

I thought Montgomery was the Williams replacement and they threw 3 years $18 million at him.

 

[DancingPanther]

I still can't get over it

If they would have beat that garbage Saints team they would have picked 8th and still had the 4th.

Of course, probably would have taken Bijan lol

 

[sauce88]

Didn't the lions sign Montgomery in the offseason? I think anyway you look at it Gibbs at 12 is a big oof.

Can you tell I don't play Fantasy anymore?

I think the only way it makes sense is if they're really out on Swift. And I think Swift is a FA after this year. But it's a weird RBBC right now. Maybe they dump Swift for a Day 3 pick?

 

[ChaosLord]

Gotta go over to the New York boards, watch the meltdowns there.

Bro it doesn't matter. Work with what you've got.

And Howie is WORKING

 

[deadhead]

The Arizona trade up is worth a late 3rd/early 4th.
Zona gets a 5th back next year, saving a little face.
So Howie gets a key pick (#66) without taking Zona to the cleaners, so he both helps his team but doesn't burn bridges.
