Remember tyron maybe the swing tackle and will for sure get injured. Again. As henhas been injured every year in thenpast 6 years. We lost McGovern. Peters will be gone. Hankins needs to be coming off the bench and a rotational.guy. our 1Tech sucks.
But their 1st round pick RB had as much to do with them winning the SB as Saquon did for NYG and Fournette did with Jax. All they got out of Edwards Eclaire was regret. Even the chiefs make bad picks now and then.
They did. And he is a rotational guy. Don't you think they regret that decision.
Our Oline was awesome though.
And that TB was decent, not great his rookie year rushing for 800 yards. He's gotten banged up and gone downhill since and now looks to likely have been replaced by a later round pick heading into the 2023 season.
Go back to 2016. Would you rather have CB Ramsey and RB Henry, or just Zeke? I'm not saying we would have done that. But a Ramsey/Henry was possible in the first two rounds. A Zeke/Ramsey was not. You can often find very good RBs later, and that's why the Eagles will not draft Bijan. Because they can get a top 10 player and a good RB. Maybe even Gibbs. Instead of just Bijan.
Actually an OG drafted could start for us. Steele, despite people claiming otherwise, will likely will not be available to start the season. Just like Gallup, people are being aggressive with his return date. Further, Tyron Smith has missed a lot of games over the years. There's a very good chance he's going to be hurt again and that would mean a first round OG would likely play a lot this year.
They don't want to draft a RB early because they want to get a career out of an early pick.
I mean they won a SB without having to use him....how can you have regrets about winning a SB? I get what you're saying but I'm just saying people are trying to say taking a 1st round RB will hurt you but not only did the Chiefs do it but they didnt' even give the guy burn and it didn't hurt them.
Not regret superbowl. But regret drafting a player that's pretty much a backup. They won in 2022. But could they have won it in 2021?
Indeed, this RB draft class has a few speed demons with hands that would instantly make MM look like a genius.
BJ will be long gone.
Why do so many fear picking a 1st round RB?
IF we don't come away first day with a RB, Spears wouldn't be a bad consolation day 2.
You would take Bijan at 10 and be happy.
That would suck for Mixon.
Your points are direct, valid and accurate, but you're speaking from an Eagles fan perspective.
Of the top 12 running backs in NFL history, 6 were instrumental in helping their teams win Super Bowls; 2 more played in Super Bowls; only 4 never played in a Super Bowl.
