    2026 Draft: WR

    I don't doubt his productivity if healthy. His knee or knees definitely require due diligence. if healthy and happy (which I think he would be here), I would expect an impact player.

    2026 Draft: WR

    AJ?

    Harold Landry Update

    I haven't followed along. Are there posters who actually prefer the 8th rated OT over a higher rated Edge? That's draft fail 101.

    2026 Draft: WR

    I don't know his medical, obv something very important to consider. He had over 1000 yds and 7 TDs last year in a disfunctional Philly offense where he seemed truly unhappy. I do think he has good football left in him.

    2026 Draft: WR

    I've always said I would be fine if the trade was no more than 2027 2nd. A conditional 1st based on your parameters would be acceptable, however are trades ever conditional on those type of parameters? If we could get 3-4 good years from AJ during Drake's Prime years a first would be...

    Sundry Thoughts before the 2026 Draft

    great memory, those details are lost on me weeks after the draft. Of course I would remember a big jump up, or a trade down bypassing a player I loved, but don't remember last year's moves at all. Getting old is fun!

    Semantics I suppose. I believe when you have a top QB you are always in the SB hunt, never sacrificing the current season. I would put your scenario in the "going all in" classification with high priced vets and sacrificing draft capital and I certainly don't think we are doing that, Vrabs...

    2026 Draft: WR

    If the AJ trade does happen, you're gonna have to switch your yearning to a new position. I will bet on athletic pass catching TE? Might need a new gif too ;)

    Sundry Thoughts before the 2026 Draft

    Manx says Farmer, will just him, I honestly don't remember. I was surprised with the 4 trade backs, that's a lot. Maybe that's more normal than I think, wonder what the league average is?

    Sundry Thoughts before the 2026 Draft

    I have bad memory when it comes to every single move we make in the draft. Of course I remember the players and rd they were taken, but was somewhat surprised when I read this today: "New England traded down four times in last year's draft compared to just one trade up". Of course that's not...

    The real question is who will your next avatar be?

    Harold Landry Update

    And our line problems were predominantly on the left side playing 2 rooks. One still hurt and one playing out of position. We were also terrible picking up the blitz. A year experience, health, a position switch and AVT should all help.

    Harold Landry Update

    Pass rush is a huge area of need…for me. This goes back to last Oct when we were approaching the trade deadline. Tommy wanted a safety, I was pounding the table for an Edge. Jones and a maybe healthy Landry plus the young guys isn’t enough, we need an upgrade. I think it should be in the...

    Bonito was a 2nd rd pick

    Harold Landry Update

    Yup. Eagles have been really good at letting the draft come to them and taking superior talent even if it's not a need. I firmly believe Edge is our biggest need, but if we get to 31 and your highest rated Edge available is someone you have ranked 40th, and there's a RT that slips that you have...

    Dane Brugler 2026 The Beast

    I do too, and I have said many times you don't draft for one year. That said we are absolutely in win now mode, and I don't see Vrabs sacrificing the now for the future. It's a very fine line to walk, but we are absolutely good enough to compete for a SB this year. Not all teams can say that...

    2026 Mock Draft Thread

    Remember people were warning about taking Drake because of the UNC QB failures. I never buy that narrative. When was the last time a QB from Texas Tech was any good before Mahomes, or a QB from Wyoming before Josh?
  18. DoubleDeluxe

    Dane Brugler 2026 The Beast

    It’s always a balance. But there is literally zero chance Vrabel is not trying to compete for a SB this year. Of course it’s about the outyears too. He’s a smart guy, he knows we need to improve our pass rush. If we can do that while still taking an OT at 31 then that’s fine, but Edge needs...

    Fire Vrabel?

    What a ridiculous thread.
  20. DoubleDeluxe

    Dane Brugler 2026 The Beast

    You could use those same arguments for us. We are in win now mode too, so drafting a guy to sit on the bench isn’t ideal. I am not in the “don’t draft a RT in the 1st group”, but it is something to consider. If we can still land an impact edge I’m fine with OT in the first, but we really need to...
