Other Sports: Philadelphia Eagles (NFL): Love, Hurts - Super Bowl LIX Champions (Jojo's Favorite Time Of The Year - Combine)

[Bigkarl]

Punts and field goals look like soccer to me, not Football. And more kickers/punters get hurt kicking than players get hurt doing the tush push.

Ban all kicking.

 

[Kermit the Prog]

More fans get injured in the stadium through carelessness, fighting, and cheese fries, so ban the fans, too.

I’m extremely interested to see if the Eagles have any public interaction with Tyler Elsbury. This is a super weird situation where both serious Iowa fans I know were baffled as to why he wasn’t playing more because the line was better whenever he did. And then their pro day happened.

FWIW Iowa has a history of not emphasizing lifts like the Bench, so I’m not concerned about that at all. This would be a very late round flyer or priority UDFA, but we’re talking about the bones of a guy they would typically like. He has played all 5 line positions, but I would think they see him as a Guard with Center versatility .

When Mike is right, he’s right.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Could he sneak into the back of the first round?

White LB without a 40?

Is this really "Breaking" news? Jameis? Sure. Joe? Not so much.

 

[JojoTheWhale]

Jesus, no. NO NO NO NO NO. Tell me they were interested as a Tight End or something.

Make of that as you will.

Sounds like he'll be at the draft. That's what I'm making of it, anyway

Last man in the green room?

They’re more selective & limited in their invites now. They must feel like he’ll go round one which I would say is a surprise.

Good listen with Ray Didinger this morning on WIP about the Eagles draft...Some highlights to share for the loyal disciples to Ray, like myself!

- Believes 18 of the Top 50 players are IDL & EDGE. Thinks EDGE is the Eagles biggest need, so very fortunate.
- He's obsessed with Mike Green. Thinks Eagles need to go get him in R1 even if it means trading up.
- Big fan of Malaki Starks. Labeled as best safety. Thinks he's great character in addition to top talent.

 

[FLYguy3911]

Mike Green has some baggage apparently and Howie went on record this offseason that they were avoiding guys with his background. We’ll see…

 

[RockLobster]

Read some comments from the Packers President, which come off as so f***in smug, like he knows that there will be language added to the rules that effectively bans the tush push.

What's so goddamn dumb is everyone sees through the bullshit. It's not at all about "player safety", because there's absolutely no data to support there being a safety issue. It's purely because Philadelphia got too good at this play, and they're being giant f***in pissbabies because of that.

Nothing is stopping other teams from gathering personnel capable of performing their own version of it, nothing other than their own players refusing to do the work.

I’m surprised Ray didn’t connect the dots regarding Mike Green. There’s no chance Howie would touch him based upon his recent comments.
