Eagles Trade Confirmed

Veracopter.
If the Browns grab Lynch at #8 would you then think it was a good trade?

IMOInteresting article. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000654455/article/did-cleveland-browns-just-pass-on-big-ben-again
Wentz will equal Cutler
Goff will equal Plummer
Lynch will equal Rodgers
SF won't draft Lynch, there are too many needs to pass on. They have Kaepernick which fits perfectly in Kelly's offense. Plus as an added bonus Gabbert played very well last year too.
The 8th pick must go Lynch. The only senerio is if Bosa is there and they still have a chance to jump in the first round the second time before the #20 pick.

lynch is a bum.
six pack says he's out of the league in 3 years.

I will take the two longshots (Prescott and Coker) against Lynch for the same bet. At least one of my two will be there in 3 years and Lynch will not.

With the first two picks being the overrated QBs, we are essentially drafting 6th (unless we trade back again - wouldn't be surprised).

Why stop there? With only a handful of players in the mix for 3 thru 7, essentially we've picking first...
I only know one thing for sure. I am now fan of the week for anyone the Eagles play.
Has to work better for us that rooting against Buffalo in 2014...

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

When I read "wrestler" I think DT not OL. Maybe he's on the wrong side of the ball...
Agree on all other points...
I saw the tape against OSU and I saw a lazy player. Like dominance was there for the taking and he just didn't have the mean streak to maul guys. If he can get that, I like him
Even in the 2nd half? I saw a pronounced difference in this case like the coaches ripped him one at halftime...
Safe to say Browns do not like Goff after seeing Rams sell the farm for Wentz.
Pressing your bet?

I'll take Wentz and Goff as my "longshots"...

Somehow I missed yesterday that the final #2 in the deal was a 2018 and not a 2017...
Took some of the shine off the deal for me, but it's still ammo if we ever need to trade up for... oh... say... a QB...

The poll shouldn't have included the part about hitting on the picks. I mean really, who goes in to it not wanting to hit on the picks?
I like the trade,
Puts us in good shape this year and allows us to control the top of the draft next year. The 2nd rounder the following year is the gem. That really gives us the ability to take any QB we might want, and there are a couple of QBs who I think rate higher then the guys on the board this year.
If everybody had like minds, we would never learn. -

No man...that is the great part of the deal. If we have to send off our 1st the following year to land Watson(QB), we then have two second rounders in that draft. We don't miss much at all.

Well this USA Today writer really liked it. http://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/columnist/bell/2016/04/20/cleveland-browns-trade-philadelphia-eagles-draft/83298698/

I had to abstain as well since both QBs were lumped together...

Problem is the NPV (net present value)... A 2nd two-years removed is the equivalent of a 4th today.

It's quite the opposite, actually. Most successful OL, at any level, have a background in wrestling...probably more than DL.
There's much more body control needed for an OL than a DL. A DL can get away with being a raw athlete, either in brute strength or sheer speed. Keeping your center, maintaining leverage, hand-fighting, core strength - all tenets of strong offensive line play as well as wrestling.
Think of it this way....DL are paid to get off of OL. OL are paid to stay on top of DL.
Now, I'm not saying that DL don't benefit from being wrestlers. But if I were to take a wrestler and transition him to football, the first place I'd throw him is on the OL. It'd be a much more natural transition and the skillset would likely transfer better there.

Hey dick fuck, How do you rebuild a 3 - 13 team? Moronic post.
Isn't a 3-13 team by definition in rebuild?

Whether it's sucessful or not who knows.

After watching Sashi Brown's presser today, I really like the trade down. They
have an intelligent criteria for the type of players they want to have on the team.
So, more players = more benefit.
Makes me wonder if Miami will now trade up to 8 for Elliot, and what
that trade would get the Browns... it would be great to have another
2nd round pick in this draft....

I think Jerry Jones is going to draft Elliot, but anything can happen.
