    With last nite's Carolina win, Philly's #1 rose to #7 overall. 🙂

    You sure? It might be #8 (SOS) but that's OK. If the Eagles lose out it could be as high as #5. When the Chargers beat the Browns it moves up another spot assuming the Iggles lose.

    Fischer has finally started to play like a 1st rounder if not a #1 overall. KC is happy anyway...

    You sure?

    Heard it on TV and read it on the internet... so it must be true...

    Giants need to win out and Dallas lose out to win division. So, pretty good chance they beat Philly this week.

    It's PHI's finale vs. da 'Boys I worry about. Rivals or not, I can see DAL mailing it in and resting their starters for much, if not all, of the game.

    Of course DAL's backups may be enough when they include Romo and McFadden.

    With Phillys pick in the first round we should get two blue choppers in the first rd.

    I'd prefer blue chippers personally, but to each their own.

  • giants need the game tomorrow night but it's a division rival and seen the gints choke too many times here to say auto chalk it up as a win. if that pick falls anywhere in the top ten i'm happy. use the number 1 pick on trubisky then let the phone calls begin.

  • so would a chargers win move philly up a spot

  • Yes.

  • so then what say u ?????????

    do u want anchovies on that pizza

    whats more important to ya ? a win ? or a higher pick that we may blow anyway

  • I'll take the win....really don't want to join the Lions as the only two 0-16 teams in NFL history. Maybe I wouldn't care if I didn't live in the Steeler capital of Ohio....

    I hear ya. As bad as 1-15 is, it's not the historical bad of Winless.

  • this franchise has been HISTORICALLY bad since it's reinception. maybe the 'it has been written so it shall be done' needs to happen before the eyes and ears of the owner and future owners know their place is and what their legacy means to such a storied frnchise.

    i want wins too but not at the cost of a player who might be the one to turn it all around.

    Uh, think you have that confused with cat-calls. 😆

  • One win. We still get Allen or Garrett, no big deal. Better than being the worst you could possibly ever be.

  • There's a part of me that says one win and the second pick would actually be a blessing. The stress and pressure of the first pick is extreme. Like you said, we're still getting an ABSURD talent at #2, AND we wouldn't be 0-16. Allen certainly fits with our scheme, although I'm quite certain we could find a use for Garrett, LOL. I remember people wondering how Joey Bosa would fit into a 3-4 defense (heck, I was one of them). Apparently, that problem is nonexistent. Bosa is having the best rookie season of any pass rusher in the past dozen years or maybe longer. No...we didn't want him I guess. *sigh* Ogbah has at least been playing better, and I'd LOVE for him to get 3 more sacks during these last games. Rivers can get rid of the ball quickly, and he's NOT the kind of guy you want to blitz, but he's also slow. Cmon Ogbah! We also got Coleman in the draft, but I wouldn't expect much out of him. Griffin can't get him the ball, the field will be frozen, and good luck trying to complete a deep ball. It'll be another 3 catch day for around 20 yards. Each catch probably coming on that quick hitter, hoping that Coleman breaks 47 tackles for a first down.

    I'd love to know just what our team's plans are for the QB position. I've been hearing a reoccurring theme lately from fans and from a couple writers, and that's to draft a QB super early, AND trade for a veteran such as Garoppolo or even Glennon. I'm not sure that I agree with that, but I can understand it. Basically, put as many bullets into the gun as possible and see which one fires. Problem with that is, we have SO MANY other needs, we can't really afford to invest that heavily in ONE position.

    Right now, we really don't have any idea how the QB's will be rated. The rankings always change in the months leading up to the draft, unless you have a Luck or Winston declaring. Heck, I've seen Watson in the 2nd round, and I've seen him in the top ten. If someone put a gun to my head and made me guess, I'd say that Kizer's arrow will begin to point upward, and he'll gather momentum. Teams will fall in love with his build, his arm, and his combine results. They'll say that Notre Dame was such a shit show, he did the best anybody could. Mitch will slightly tail off because of his lack of starting experience, and he'll be the second QB taken. Watson will still go in the first, but won't be top ten. Mitch makes quick decisions and fires an accurate ball. Picking at #2, Chip Kelly will have a hard time passing on Mitch, but I think he will. Problem is, the Bears and Jets still need a QB, and they both pick before our Eagles pick. Wish we knew the price of trading for Garoppolo...that's where I'm leaning right now.

  • Well this top 10 pick is going up in smoke pretty fast. Philly 14-0 in 5 minutes.

    Yup, watched it all. Manning played like Mud Hen. Pick 6 another int, and errant deep throws Wentz outplayed him.

  • Yep, remember that franchise QB the Browns always want to chase? Wouldn't you know the one they didn't chase is him. That was supposed to be one of the best defenses in the league hungry to stay in the chase with the Cowboys. All in THE PLAN.

    ...and he completed 13/24 passes for ~150 yards, a touchdown and a pick. Shredded that D, clearly.

  • I think it matters more in the player we take with that pick and not what number for draft position. 8 or 12 doesn't really matter if you can't evaluate and pick talent.

    better than what we got or have had in decades. still like wentz. he will be their guy for 15 years.

    the browns?,,,,?,,,,

  • We played the giants this year, remember? Josh McCown, 25/43, 322 yards, 1TD, no picks.

    Next question?
