Hurts- 2nd round draft pick
Saquon Barkley -UFA signing
AJ Brown- trade with Titans
Devonta Smith- 1st round draft pick (10th)...consequence of Carson went trade)
Goedart- 2nd Round draft pick
Jordan Mailllata- 7th round pick, scouted him as New Zealand rigby player
****erson- 2nd Rounder (#44) Draft pick
Jurgens 2nd Rounder (#51) Draft pick
Bekhton-UFA from Jets (first rounder)
Lane Johnson-first round draft pick, 4th overall


In short he did everything right, Everything that BB and Wolf have done wrong
1, shrewd drafting; 4 2nd rounders, 2 first rounders
2, Great UFA pick ups- 2 former high first rounders
3. Great scouting- Jordan Maillata was a 7th rounder that the Eagles had scouted as a rugby player he is now a dominant OL

How about Pats last year how did they acquire their players?



Maye- draft pick, high first rounder (3)
Stevenson- fourth round draft pick
Demario Douglas- 6th round draft pick
Boutte- 6th round draft pick
Bourne- UFA, undrafted
Henry- UFA, 2nd rounder (35)
Lowe- trade (6th rounder)
Robinsonn 4th round draft pick
Strange first round draft pick
Onwenu 6th round draft pick (182)
Jacobs- waivers

Draft picks- 2 first rounder, 1 fourth rounder, 4 6th rounders
Waivers- 1 crappy OT
trade- i bad OT,
UFA- 1 2nd round UFA good but not great TE, 1 undrafted UFA mediocre wide receiver


bottom line, Howie had 6 outstanding draft picks in first and 2nd round compared with 2 for Patriots, Howie made a shrewd trade for an impact player AJ Brown, Pats made a trade for Vederian Lowe
Roseman made brilliant high profile UFA signings at key positions- Barkley and Bekhton
Great scouting took a risk in 7th round on a player with an incredibly high ceiling and it paisd off

Howie has drafted incredibly well in rounds day 1 and 2 and rewarded with elite players, BB and Wolfe have had numerous early round failures and are forced to play 6th round draft picks with low ceilings, Howie nailed his UFA signings...Pats have failed.

I hope Eliott becomes like Howie but he needs to take on more risk and go for homers.

That OL is something else, they hardly seem to even miss Kelce
 
Check this article...


Drafting majorly from powerhouse schools and few shots at outliers. We have been drafting a lot from D2 schools and other smaller schools instead of majorly focusing on SEC or big 10.

Level of competition at college level matters and I think that was not in our scouting algorithm.

The defense was rebuilt by first looking at Georgia and going I like these players I like this scheme I like how they play together let’s draft them all.

Then it was oh you all want to take a QBs ok we will watch top tier defensive backs fall in the draft.
 
Helpful articke thanks. Eagles are well set up for a long run. They could take Chiefs place as top team for next 5-6 years.
They took advantage of almost every first and 2nd round pick and marquee UFA signings and trades

Big contrast with recent Pats approach
 
Best OL coach in the game: Stoutland - way under the radar and underappreciated.

Watch the technique on the Eagles OL. Pretty consistently good.
 
All that just to lose again to Mahomes.
It's funny because I remember not to long ago hurts was about to be moved for Russell Wilson... suddenly Roseman dupes the Titans GM to steal AJ Brown and the eagles offense takes off.
 
The Eagles didn't get good at drafting overnight. It took years to get the system in place.

I am encouraged that Wolf had already started to beef up (or maybe create) their analytics department even before Vrabel got there. I am also encouraged that Vrabel brought in his guy to help out.

Belichick lived in the past when it came to roster management. He didn't believe in advanced analytics. He didn't believe in a robust scouting department. And left Wolf with no tools to manage the roster last year.

Wolf didn't have the job permanently until after the draft. So the Krafts may not have let him build up the scouting and player personnel department until after that. From reporting, there has been significant additions to those areas of the front office even before Vrabel was hired.

Wolf could still suck, but he is building a front office or like the Eagles' front office that heavily relies on advanced analytics and sports science to build a roster.

As we all know as patriots fans when we had solid coaching and front office staff as well as the roster we won consistently. We need to do the things that brought us winning. We have the coaching and QB now it's time to get the roster right and back on the path to winning.
 
Bottom line is Roseman prioritized line play on both sides of the ball.

It hasn't mattered if it was Carson Wentz, Nick Foles or Jalen Hurts at QB. It hasn't mattered if it was castoffs like Lagarrette Blount, Jay Ajayi, Miles Sanders at RB or Saquon Barkley.

Football is won in the trenches. Spend your money and resources there, find a QB and everything else will work out.
 
Eagles currently have $19 mill in cap space
NE has $120 mill in cap space

Thunder says: "Isn't our remodeled inland lighthouse with tiny bell a game changer"
 
YES!!!!

NE has 131 for cap space for 2025.
 
Eagles are showing that a dominating ground game never goes out of style. In fact, teams aren’t built to stop the run which is why it’s a mystery teams continue to devalue this. Running the ball well makes the passing game impossible to stop. Whether or not the Eagles win, more teams should make this a priority again.
