A draft completely against the Eagles' tendencies:

[Florida_Sunshine]

That would help the Eagles.

[allentown]

Help at a lot of positions.

[xogfog]

They are going to need help at a LOT of positions, I know they already have 11 picks, and hopefully they'll get a couple more for Ertz, but now more than ever, Howie and co. have to hit on a bunch of picks in this draft and get a few top UDFA's too. This article really explains how thin the roster is right now:

Mailbag: How many current Eagles players are locks for the 53-man roster?

Report: Eagles are going to trade Zach Ertz "by the end of the draft for sure"

I would take PC's draft. i don't know about taking parsons in the first, but at 25 i guess i would agree. Also, his first 6th rounder is a beaut. this kid will be one of the steals of the draft. small program but the kid can play. Also, i think the Prince will be in the mix this year. look out for him. Howie gave up the store for Wentz ( which i thought was way too much and didn't like). it hurt the growth of this team. you don't think he would be dumb enough to do it again? Wow. Here's to an interesting weekend, starting with Thursday evening. hope it is a successful one.

Nobody knows anything (Wilson second, Lance third, Pitts fourth. Will the Eagles still have a shot at Fields, whether by trade or drop?)

[schillingfan]

They could have had Sewell at 6. I wanted that big anchor to the OL. I am tired of drafting WR.

[zambonir]

They could still take Slater who might fit better. They've got a year for the line to shake out anyway.

Could still be a corner or a QB or the Heisman-winner. This is also the only pick they could trade up for probably (though it does happen)

[Florida_Sunshine]

Holy cow. We just traded with the Cowboys. So, is it Smith or Fields?

[gmwannabe]

It better not be the Eagles pick in that round that was traded.

[zambonir]

Haha never say never indeed.

[Florida_Sunshine]

Smith!!! I like it. Speed kills.

[zambonir]

Seems like this didn't necessarily work out the way the Eagles wanted, like maybe they thought either Waddle or Smith was gonna be there at 12 but couldn't risk it.

[xogfog]

Love the pick. Good move, had to get in front of the Giants to get him.

[zambonir]

Bears just handed the Giants a haul.

[Florida_Sunshine]

Fields will be a great QB in the NFL.

[xogfog]

Micah Parsons is going to be terrorizing the Eagles twice a year, he goes to the Cowboys at 12.
