Why not get the QB in round 1 and get your WR at 53? because we needed a wr and reagor would not have been there at 53. unless you want to argue that also. hurts shouldn't have been there at 53, but he was and was great value knowing the college career he had.

Only reason I don't argue that stuff is because I don't follow college. Right now, to me, there's no difference between the top overall pick and Mr Irrelevant. Just like Reagor and Taylor. I have no strong opinion on the players themselves, but I do like the positions they addressed. I don't like QB in round 2 given our situation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you also just said they didn't think Hurts would be there at 53 either, and QB is more important. Given the logic, it makes more sense to get the QB you like first, and get your WR later.

He likes to run around the field and give his receivers time to get open then throw outside the pocket or run for himself. He can't stand in the pocket and throw. Which is fine in college because no one could catch him. He will be blown up with that crap in the NFL. He lost his job to Tua and had to transfer.

I'm addressing their position. I've even said Hurts may be a great player for all I know. It was a terrible position to address in that spot.

T-1000 Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 The Eagles could be looking to run a two-QB offense with both Carson Wentz and Jalen Hurts on the field, per @CharlesRobinson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't be surprised if they thought the Cowboys were going to take him in Round 3 because of Dak's contract situation and because Cooper Rush sucks. But, no matter what, you don't try to screw over a team to get a backup QB in Round 2. There's no justification for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T-1000 Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 I have come to the conclusion that this will either end up being one of the greatest picks in team history, or the worst. I would say about 90 percent chance of worst and 10 percent best, but I see no middle ground here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That stuff works great in college because with your raw athleticism you can out run guys that will be accountants after college. In the nfl those guys chasing you are just as talented or more and just as fast. Why his skill set doesn't transfer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eagleblood52 Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 The only way (in my mind) this pick makes any sense...after the concussion, Wentz got checked out by doctors and was told that any more injuries or concussions and he’s gonna have to cut his playing career short. Eagles were told and this is their response...the only way to me, this makes any sense. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My not following college has nothing to do with the discussion of drafting a QB in round 2 when you have a $100 Million QB about to enter his prime years. You're using it as an excuse to get out of justifying your position of wanting a gluttony of riches at QB, and why you don't take a top 5 valued QB at 21.

UK_EaglesFan89 Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 Another Hurts thing... He's just come from an offense that has produced 2 #1 QBs in the last 2-3 years before this year. And QB needy teams passed on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, if that's the case, I would've still preferred if they signed a vet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
