Draft Day ****Official Round 2 Draft Thread***

[TheMarathonContinues]

So before I get excited about a possible receiver falling to us....did they bring in any receivers? And with that 3rd rounder.....I wouldn't be shocked if they went Hines with that pick. Not at all.

Pretty nice how they just jumped us for Dallas Goedert ( who was named after the Dallas cowboys) on the day Witten retires. I love Conner Williams but TE was a huge need and Philly knew it. I hate that team.

Not sure why our front office is so passive .....first in free agency and now during the draft.

Because jerry is half dead.

 

[sideon]

I said speed receiver.

Hurns, Williams, Beasley, Switzer, Brown and Thompson aren’t terrible.

TE is a little more meh.

But people act like you can fix your entire roster in two picks.

But people on here are acting like the cowboys did with these 2 picks. It's too early to call them bad picks, but it's not too early to say these are great picks

Not even close. In fact, we punked them. We had no plan to draft a TE this high and were targeting a G all along. So take you're negativity and cram it.

 

[Idgit]

We clearly had no real interest in Goedert. LG was a bigger need, anyway.

 

[Sarge]

Philly didn't even NEED a TE. They punked themselves and we still got our guy.

 

[Carson]

.... talent?

So who would you have picked there that would make us “talented”

You can’t please people man. People clamor for trenches and we go trenches. Then people want “talent” smh

 

[Hadenough]

I freaking love the Connor Williams pick. Outstanding.

Now PLEASE trade 81 for Earl Thomas and this will be an A+ draft.

That would cover the top 3 biggest needs.

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

hey philly......that aint a freight train comin....thats THE WALL.......AND HELL IS RUNNIN BEHIND IT!!!!

Yup, now Zeke is going to have a nice set of choices to run behind. I'm thrilled with this pick. Absolutely thrilled!

 

[gmoney112]

I'd rather take a S or Shepherd if they drop over a WR in the third

 

[BrAinPaiNt]

Panthers take....CB Donte Jackson LSU

The current Cowboys offensive scheme does not use their tight-ends aggressively so even though Dallas Goedert is a really good tight-end, it would have been a wasted pick for the Cowboys to draft him in the second round. The smart play was to rebuild the hole in the offensive line and then throw numbers at the other positions such as tight-end, receiver, etc. in the later rounds.

I agree. And the Cowboys have Rico. And the Cowboys always seem to do well with undrafted FAs at TE.

 

[PAPPYDOG]

We have guys to protect dak we have no one for him to throw to. This is a disaster.

Oh oh Will someone get Dak some WR now!!
Its not enough he has 4 no 1 picks and a new G on the offline and Zeke he will falter cause he has no Prime WR ...omg...what else must the universe serve up for Dak to be successful on the field?

 

[MCMetal69]

For all those talking up Philthydelphia , remember they just picked up Michael Bennett and have 2 complete starting caliber NFL defensive lines.......Dallas badly needed to make certain they filled their hole at left guard..............................

 

[DaBoys12]

I love the pick, that o-line is an identity, it was broke, and now it's fixed. Kudos to the FO.

 

[speedkilz88]

Alexander the OL coach had already come in the picture. They had their eye on Connor Williams the whole time.

 

[theebs]

The eagles, their former players, beat writers, radio show hosts and fans are absolutely obsessed with the cowboys

just think they sent a kicker who was not part of the championship team to try and troll the cowboys? He sounded like pee wee herman and has no super bowl ring.

made no sense. Perfectly philly.

 

[Kaiser]

i dont think we were going to draft the TE anyways and i am very happy with our pick.

Exactly, the idea that Dallas was dying to draft him really sounds like a media creation just to hype up the show. Dallas knew Witten might retire weeks ago and you still never saw anything like rumors or official visits with TEs. I think Dallas is perfectly happy with who they have on the roster already.

here goes the cbs

Agreed, and maybe we will be ending up with Lazard in 4.
