Philly gets Maclin. He's a very dangerous player. Maclin and Pettigrew are 2 players I did not want to see Philly get. I would've rather seen them draft Chris Wells.

Scares me very little. Basically the Eagles have clone WR's that do the same thing.

whats so scary about a couple of 1 dimensional receivers. I'll wait and see about this pick.

Figured they'd take him if he was there. They were talking about getting Boldin and Edwards so it was a need for them. But he will really on contribute on ST right away. I'm not that concerned about it.

Well, speed concerns me. We don't have the personnel to match up with extreme speed, and now Philly has 2 receivers with just that.

Ok, whatever. I don't see it that way and he's a guy that will probably take several yrs to make a big impact as a WR.trading for Boldin or Edwards, or drafting Nicks or Britt would have worried me a lot more than Maclin.

Newman, Scandrick, Jenkings are pretty fast.

Huh? Newman, Jenkins and Scandrick all have elite speed.

They still have Donovan "80 QB rating" McNabb throwing to them.

Bad news? You're kidding right? I was praying no one in the NFC East grabbed Crabtree, who's the best WR to come out since Calvin Johnson.

Philly will be serious threat on offense this year. What I don't get is why they traded up 2 spots to get him. Cleveland at 19 was not going to draft him obviously and though the Lions took a TE, I could not see them drafting another WR in round 1.

Orakpo to the forskins isn't good either.....oh well, it's not easy when you don't pick till 51...although I must say some of these guys are VERY underwhelming...Freeman? gimme a break.....

its a bad pick for philly unless then tend to deal him in a trade for Bouldin. He is basically the same type of player as D. Jackson with worse hands.

oh no, everyone drafted better than us because they have a first. We're doomed. Regardless of who they pick makes them better. Where are the people that were scared when Philly got Reggie Brown? Give me a break. Its only the draft and we have to pack it in now.

This just in in a bizarre trade, the Eagles gave up the rest of their draft and selected Air at the premiere position, Cowboys packed in the season. We have reports they left the draft.

This is great news. Moreno and Pettigrew were the two guys I was worried about them getting.

He really is a lot like D Jackson, only bigger. That's scary no matter how you cut it. I would have rather they took a running back, or a tight end. I really thought the Raiders would take Macklin. ******.
