Eagles Turning Up The Heat For Cox...

[SDogo]

HA HA

We have heard the rumors for weeks, hours before the draft I'm told the Eagles are really pushing to move up to St. Louis spot to get Fletcher Cox. So much so I'm told picks 46, 51 and 88 all seem to be very much in play.

I'm also told Brockers seems to be option 2 and would not be afraid to move up to get him. Upgrading the DL seems to be priority #1.

As always, thank you for the news, but:


BOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!

The last thing I want to see is the Giants or Eagles keep building a better D Line.

[ThreeandOut]

What do you think the Cowboys do if they don't trade up and Cox, Barron, Brockers and DeCastro are all gone before 14? I assume they try their best to trade down, but who is the new target?

Yeah not thrilled myself

[Denim Chicken]

Please don't let the Egals ruin this draft for me.

St Louis should take that deal and build a monster. They are not 3 players away , they are 5 or 7 players away. Devaney was awful. Much worse than anything we have done.

I think he meant those picks are for trade. Philly probably wouldn't trade all of them. If they did, I'd take deal too.

[InmanRoshi]

Would people please stop giving Andy Reid draft/trade ammo for his crappy QBs?

[RoyTheHammer]

The Eagles love Cox.. what a suprise.

The Eagles want to take a DL'man in the first round for the 48th time in the last 50 drafts.. also, huge suprise.

:rolleyes:

Not necessary, at least one of those players will be there at 14, guaranteed.

[dmq]

Been expecting to hear the rumors flying about Philly. They always seem to have all the amo they need to cherry pick in the draft. Amazing how many times they've wiffed though.

[cowboysooner]

Think about this would do for the Rams, they moved from 2 to 15 pick up 2 future 1st rounders, 3 seconds and a 3rd. That is Hershel Walker type stuff.

[Idgit]

Wait...the Eagles are going to draft trench players early? Somebody pinch me. :)

plus the possibilty of future trade downs with those extra first rounders.

I'm wondering this as well.

[Sam I Am]

If we don't get Cox, I damn sure don't want him in the NFCE.

[theogt]

I don't want them to have Fletcher Cox, but I think I'd be very happy to see them give away the farm like that.

As bad as they are at drafting the first rd they may trade up and pick Jenkins...you know Reid always thinks he's outsmarting everyone

That is Hershel Walker type stuff.With the rookie wage system, those high picks are so damn valuable. It almost makes it worth tanking an entire season to rebuild your team with the picks you can get from trades.

[scrives]

I am hearing they want ILB Luke Kuechly not Cox. This is what they are saying in Philly folks.

[InmanRoshi]

He'll get all those picks back when some franchise gives him a 2nd and 3rd for Mike Kafka. All he has to do is go on and on about how phenomenal he looks in practice and that he's a future franchise QB, and Buck and Aikman will mindlessly regurgitate in front of national audiences it until it becomes truth.

[AmishCowboy]

If they were all gone I would pick Peter Konz the Center

This is why we should have played McGee in 2010 instead of Kitna. He gets lucky as a couple of 300 yard games b/c defenses are in prevent and you can trade him for a 3rd.

If Miami misses out on Tannehill...

Moving all the way to 6 would do the trick for them. They can have him at that price.
