Nfl_draft_06

And so it begins, the biggest day of the NFL offseason the 2008 NFL Draft. I'm at the Eagles draft party at the Linc where I'll be taking lots of pictures and video that I will be sharing when I get back.

Until then, use this as your open thread to discuss all picks/trades/anything. Later on I'll have full scouting reports and analysis on whoever the Eagles bring in.

the Rams took

Chris Long. what happened to dorsey i thought they wanted him, or they were going to try to swap with the falcons so the falcons could take him. i gues it was a ploy to posibly get more picks

First pick that affects the Eagles coming up

At 8? That was a reach…

Good for the Eagles. WRs drop, and CB becomes more of a commodity.

we could probably get one of the top ones in the second it looks like…

Well I don’t think we’re moving up at this point. Maybe WR? Devin Thomas!

No WR

If they can get Otah and then trade up later to get a good WR this will be an outstanding first day.

Detroit

A reach for Detroit taking Gosder Cherilus.

No doubt we got GREAT value for the pick. We’ve got the 43 and 49 pick in the 2nd round now apparently. Who do we pick?

and we wont be able to keep all of them so we just might trade them off for something

too many picks/something wrong with Otah

This seemed like a year that they needed fewer, better picks. We’ll see how it shakes out. Maybe something’s wrong with Otah. Both Detroit and Houston passed could had OT as a position of need and passed on him, too.

What if DThomas is still available at the end of the first rounder? We could move up to get him.

pretty sweet draft this year … a lot better than last year. It’s possible the birds are stock piling picks to sweeten a deal for one of the recievers … would have to be Roy or Anquan Cincy won’t trade chad until after June 1st

by Whodie126 on Apr 26, 2008 5:30 PM EDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Why June 1st? They can trade him now and designate it post-June 1st. However they don’t need – the Bengals would love to count money already spent against the cap this year – saves them a ton!

Lots of options with Lito and two 1sts next year. He could return kicks for us, he’s played it pretty straight. If we keep him we probably do some kind of incentive deal based on games active or something.

I think that the Seahawks didnt need that pick now that all the best RBs are off the board. Whatever the Seahawks got from the Cowboys was a bonus, but mostly what they need now is time to think their next step. Losing all the best RBs came as a surprise to them

by anuj on Apr 26, 2008 6:05 PM EDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

hmm

but why didn’t the boys take jenkins with their first pick then take jones with their second instead of moving up? seattle wouldn’t take jones, as he’s not really a full time back.

He looks like a good receiver too. But if they drafted him last year then why would they trade him so soon? And he was third and they got a fourth…this is kind of strange.

Personally I don’t think Jackson is who we want and Malcolm Kelly scares me a little. Hardy’s character issues make me nervous and Sweed’s durability scares me. I don’t know what I want.

Personally i was flying the Kelly flag for months but I JasonB converted me to Sweed. Hardy is risky and Jackson is to small.

Giants Take Kenny Phillips

Let’s hope he was massively overrated.

Crap

I was hoping we would get him. Hopefully he is overrated

Phillip Merling is a great pick for the Dolphins. I was hoping he would fall to us

I was hoping we would trade up for him actually.

First WR to go...Avery?

who is this kid. With all the WR you could get, they pick Avery

We will probably grab a great WR in our pick with all the dumb picks happening. I dont see what was in Thomas

God dang WR’s…who’s gonna give us that “oldspice” red-zone presence we so dearly need?

I still cant get this out of my head:
two #1’s next year and lito…somethings gotta give. Anyone still think something will happen there?

We might have to brace ourselves that our big moment might come in a trade after the draft…

Whose Nelson

Havent these guys seen all the other WRs out there

by anuj on Apr 26, 2008 6:55 PM EDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

I think so

We’d have four RBs going into camp. I think they would bump Buckhalter if they needed to.

by SilkPhantom on Apr 26, 2008 7:01 PM EDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

On the Inquirer they are saying he’s a classic West Coast Offense RB. He’s a good receiver. He apparently won’t fit into Miami’s new offense.

I can’t believe Sweed, Jackson, Hardy, Kelly and Doucet are ALL still on the board!

its amazing on how stupid teams are being right now. I hope we dont pull one like that too

I’m predicting a WR and a Safety with our two picks. You heard it here first. If that doesn’t happen, you didn’t hear it from me.

Lito?

If he doesn’t go soon I think he stays.

You could take Sweed at 43 and Jackson at 49 ;-)

and nothing has happened but in time to see the pick. I’m secretly glad Hardy is going for some reason I did not like him. guess it’s not a secret anymore.

never really like Spadaro he was a prick to people that called in during the Asante signing and Clemons signing. I think the Eagles pay him to give crazy false information.

ummmm, i am now starting to beleive that there is something BIG in the works for after the draft. There must be…right? i mean Big Red is clearly sitting in the back room with that little “i know something you don’t know” smirk on his face. Because he LOVES torturing the fans and media with slight of hand.

Either that or nothing happens and he thinks sweed lasts to our next pick and then scarfs down a bucket of KFC is sadness when sweed gets picked
