Not that he is a bad pick IMO, but he and Garrett Graham have very similar attributes. Not that my new pick makes a lot of since seeing the Texans spent a 5th on a QB last year. They need a 3rd stringer though and I think it's decent value as a project. They'll likely pick up an UDFA, but we don't do that here. Although I've been attempting to come up with a pitch for having a small UDFA pool selection.
Wanted to ensure with all the late round picks that I got the best punter available, so grabbed Anger. Forston has some talent/potential; if he could stay healthy he could be a nice part of the DL rotation.
My Eagles are done: PHILADELPHIA EAGLES, WW85 Rd 1 - Michael Floyd, WR, Notre Dame Rd 2 - Kendall Reyes, DT, Connecticut Rd 2 - Amini Silatolu, G/OT, Midwestern State Rd 3 - Bernard Pierce, RB, Temple Rd 4 - Keenan Robinson, OLB, Texas Rd 5 - Derek Wolfe, DE/DT, Cincinnati Rd 6 - Kellen Moore, QB Boise State Rd 6 - Aaron Henry, S, Wisconsin Rd 6 - Josh Oglesby, OT, Wisconsin Floyd should be a great addition to add size and physical play. He wasn't my 1st Choice in Rd 1, but a good value. IMO, Reyes is a perfect fit for Reid's defense. I saw Reyes being interviewed yesterday, intelligent, very well spoken young man. Silatolu could be one of the best O-lineman in this draft. Very strong player. Pierce is a solid RB and the Eagles keep a local player. I like the idea of adding another RB into their backfield. I wanted to add another LB sooner, but the value wasn't available. Robinson has the ability to be a starter, I like his potential. Wolfe can move anywhere on the D-line. He almost declared last year and it probably hurt his stock slightly staying. Moore...winner, plain and simple. A coach in a player's body. I don't expect Vince Young to be on the roster more than another year. 2 good Badger players. Henry was a steal in rd 6.
Anger was EXACTLY who I was hinting at who I wanted you to get PP10. Great, great pick. He could go in round 5, possibly round 4. Great value pick, shame BUF/JAX/DAL all have their fixes at punter.
Without question you got excellent value with all your picks in rounds 2-6 Floyd wasn't the best value, nor did he fill a need, but that offense definitely has the potential to be scary good with Vick Jackson/Maclin/Floyd/McCoy/Celek all on the field at once. Definitely a great draft, just not having the right guy fall to your first pick keeping it from being an excellent one imo
Guys, I'm on the same schedule Sunday (not available till after 6 PM). Send boards to JohnnythaJet, Bakermaker & Barry the Baptist. Again, thanks for all your help today, everyone did an excellent job, you don't even need me. Thanks.
I think the Jason Peters injury is definitely gonna have an impact on the Eagles draft a bit too Losing your starting LT, possibly for his career, especially considering how bad that OL already is and the Eagles definitely got some serious Oline issues now
Thanks, I'd had my eye on him for a while now and didn't want to risk waiting until the seventh. I would love if we used one of our six final picks on him; I think the Jets could definitely use an upgrade from Conley.
