Eagles Trade Confirmed

darren15

So have we done well out of this or what...I am confused whether it is good or bad ...opinions please

Represent

The trade is good not only do we get their next years first, but the 2018 2nd rounder also now that's an impressive move and made the trade absolutely worth it for VALUE.

I was pretty convinced for about 11 months now that we would take Cardale Jones this year anyways and we got the picks i gotta say its g2g baby how you doing!

and the rest of their instant mock went:

32. Will Fuller (WR) ND

65. Nick Martin ND

77. Jihad Ward (DE) IL

99. Nick Kwiatkoski (ILB) WVU

100. Javon Hargrave (DT) SCarSt

... and Kiper doubled down on Conklin saying, "He might be the best player in the draft." There might have been a bit of a double take from McShay at this...

We are NOT taking Conklin @ #8. Sorry about that Mel.

I love Conklin and whatever team gets him will likely also love him.

But not at #8. He can be had at #15, trade back with Tennessee if you're gonna go for him. Hell, he might be had at #22. Trade back with Houston.

Wouldn't you just crap if the birds are really taking Zeke knowing he won't get by Dallas at 4.

If the Ravens take Bosa and he kills us for years it would really blow.

This. If the Ravens prove they can turn him into a perfectly acceptable 3-4 hybrid....I hope you all get syphilis

It's hairspray, dude.

There is a real possibility that we hold the first and second pick in next year's draft.

We obviously would trade them and could you imagine the picks you would have spread across multiple drafts? Mind boggling.

Brilliant. True rebuild. Though I don't see how the Eagles finish last.

And if he doesn't?

New, first-time HC... New systems... Fragile starting QB... Turnover on D... Strong Division... Play the AFCN and NFCN plus ATL and SEA...

Not the easiest of 2016....

Good story, but on-field... what did I miss?

Figured this place would be burned to the ground by now. Jack at 8? Yes please.

The best prospects aren't always perfect on-field specimens...especially when it comes to the trenches. Intangibles matter heavily when it comes to the hog mollies.

His history, work ethic and demeanor, coupled with the fact that he's already awfully technically sound, all likely point to a very long NFL career.

He's a Joe Thomas in the locker room, if he can develop into one on the field...even better. Even if he doesn't, he's still a starter-level player as it stands today.

Inside, I can see him having a career. Showed great upper body and hand use.

But at OT I think speed will kill him. Just not athletic enough... at least that's what I saw.

His wrestling background? What Conklin loses in his footwork he gains back in his hands & angles. But he's no Decker. If we go power blocking running game I like Conklin/Decker but not at 8..Stanley I want no part of..4th quarter his gas tank is empty. If we stay at 8 give me a forest of Buckner or Jack bartender..
