Eagles fans collectively go upon Jalen Hurts pick

[MichaelWinicki]

Philly boards are melting down (again).

This is a gem from their board:

"EPENESA GOES NEXT PICK! LAMB TO THE COWBOYS, NOW EPENESA GOES NEXT PICK! MY BALLS CAN'T TAKE ANYMORE KICKS TO THEM!"

 

[blueblood70]

OMG, they must be going nuts over there. Jalen Hurts?

they an to use him lie NO uses Hill

 

[Swagger]

Trade bait.

 

[ultron]

The eagles board will be gold

Oh it already is: https://boards.philadelphiaeagles.com/topic/763155-round-2-53-eagles-select-oklahoma-qb-jalen-hurts/

 

[ItzKelz]

Good pick up by Philly....Wentz will definitely get hurt.

 

[MichaelWinicki]

Another Philly board winner...

"The only way this pick makes sense is if Carson Wentz secretly passed away from the Covid-19."

 

[Kaiser]

He going to be on the bench for a while. Might be good trade bait for them later.

But would they get a pick much higher than the one they just used?

[Sheepish]

And they should. It's a total slap in the face to Wentz no matter what way you look at it. Hurts is not elite, but has enough ambition and enough skill to see the field, even if as a wildcat type situational QB and for when Wentz inevitably gets injured. This will screw with Wentz's head.

Maybe Doogie saw Taysom Hill in NO and thought they could do that. That's how they will try to justify it.

A backup QB in the 2nd round??? Nope

 

[CWR]

"Great draft so far! We got a punt returner in the 1st, and a backup QB in the 2nd!"

Bwahahahahhaahha

 

[Qcard]

Were the Patriots less confident about Brady when they drafted Garoppolo?

yes....Belichick is always releasing or moving on from players with a year or 2 left in tank for $$.

Kraft made Belichick give it one more ride before moving on from Brady when they drafted Jimmy. Kraft was right. but in general Brady stayed 3-4 seasons longer than Belichick keeps veterans

 

[vicjagger]

They did that just to spite us.

 

[CATCH17]

Kind of a smart pick.


Wentz’s weakness is durability.

 

[rickster14]

Going for an All-Jalen draft. Don’t know what Jalen they pick in R3.

[ShortRound]

Ok so they must really not trust Wentz?

what’s the point of a backup qb in the 2nd round?

 

[krimson]

LOL, how do you just pay a guy 128 mil and draft a qb in the second round the following year when you have so many needs. Guess they know that Wentz will not finish another season or he is already finished.

Depends on the desperation the other team need for a QB, or what type of package you draw up to include Hurts with it.
