Eagles Reportedly Have Hearts Set On Carson Wentz

[DFWJC]

One thing to note.......... Lurie has done this before. He went on a whirlwind tour of QBs a few years ago and made a big hubbub about going to WVU to watch Geno Smith workout. Everyone in the media said the same thing............. they want a QB because the Eagles are spending so much time working out QBs. Draft came and they didn't take a QB, even when they had a chance to grab Smith when he slipped to Rd 2. They took Zach Ertz instead.

So this could be the media again jumping the gun.

It's a good point and a lesson that just because you CAN take a QB does not mean you should, if the player is not worth the pick. They're due diligence saved them from (probably originally) using a 1st rounder on a probable bust.

Sometimes I think if the two top QBs from that year (Smith and Manuel) were the consensus top picks this year, some around here would STILL be screaming to take the QB , just because we have a high pick.
Both Goff and Wentz are rated slightly higher than those two, but not my much. At least not by ESPN or Scout.

I'm not saying that's how I'd rate then, but just saying to love the player 1st .

Got a hunch from what I'm hearing...Browns are gonna roll w/ RG3...w/ the idea of getting Dak Prescott as their backup....They like Ramsey w/ their 1st.

Do I agree w/ it?

We are talking about "moneyball" w/ the Browns now....

Please let it be true.

In that scenerio....I'd bet the Jets are on the phone w/ us in a heartbeat. If they offered 1/20, 2/51 and Mo Wilkerson....You might have to consider it.

So your sitting @ 1/20...Take a William Jackson III CB Houston

Come back in round 2/34 for say Emmanuel Ogbah RDE Oklahoma St.

@ 2/51.............Jaylon Smith LB Notre Dame

@ 3/67.......Miles Killebrew SS Southern Utah

Wouldn't be a bad package.............then maybe in the 4th you come back to the offense...

Pharoh Cooper WR S.Carolina

Kenyan Drake RB Alabama

.....then in the 6th Brandon Allen QB Arkansas

Still 3 picks left.....

I'm sorry but that's an awful draft. I see NO immediate starters outside of maybe Jackson. Ogbah is lazy, and Smith might not play for 2 years. No thank you.

Also, people arent sure if Killibrew will have to switch to LB, Drake has fumbleitis/injury problems and Brandon Allen is just awful. Yuck.
