Cross your toes. This is where the Eagles have struggled for years. Rounds 2 and 3. Hopefully this is the year.

3 is a bad round for us, yes, but we did get DeSean Jackson, LeSean McCoy and Nate Allen in the 2nd in recent years.

LOL at Jamie Dukes on NFLN, talking about how "soft" Chandler Jones looks. Talk about your pot calling the kettle black.

I don't see how Dukes still has a job.

Getting back on topic though, I think by hook or by crook (trade), Hill is the 1st player off the board tonight. I really thought he even had the potential to be a top 10 pick to Jacksonville. Obviously, they moved up and got a guy the coveted a bit more, but he's still a great NFL talent. Not just a workout warrior, he's got the tools and technique to be a success in the NFL.

Yeah. Jury is still out on Nate Allen. Jackson was a no brainer. McCoy was a good pick obviously.

I was thinking back a few years.

Brown

Hill is a major project, and would have collapsed if a dysfunctional team picked him. I think some teams would rather just take someone like Streeter. Less risk, pretty much the same ceiling.
