Trent Williams and Stephon Heyer? Yeah right. David Diehl and William Beatty? Not happening. Doug Free and Marco Columbo? Not happening.
Brandon Graham is so stout against the run too, he is a beast. He has the base of Darryl Tapp and the quickness of Trent Cole, he is such a monster. He led the entire nation in tackles for a loss last season, he lives behind the opposing offensive line. And just like Trent Cole and Darryl Tapp, if he doesn't do well, it won't be from a lack of effort.
Sooo excited.

Sniper, I was waiting for this post. Also, the Eagles may not see FS as a need at all, and I could see them going OL then CB, as there is more value along the O-lines at 37 than CB.

First of all, love the Graham pick.
As for tomorrow, I hope they make their pick at 37 but then trade back with their 2nd pick and maybe picking up a couple 3rds.

Maybe the selection will be Roger Saffold, I would love a corner, but dont see us taking one.

Right now Ellis Hobbs is one of our starting CBs and look at the WR corps' around the NFC East, especially now with Dez Bryant going to Dallas. Our new and improved pass rush could help, but I say we need a CB and S in this round as long as the value is right.

Saffold doesn't fit the Eagles, too finesse.

Thats what I'm hoping, I think the value is better for S first though

Definitely. For a second there I thought McCourty could fall to 37 then the pats took him ahead of Wilson. Nate Allen is definitely my #1 guy for 37 right now, even more so than Mays.

Definitely. I really like Burnett though, and he fits the Eagles defense a little better.

Im not big on Saffold, my self. But thats what I think they will probably do. I really hope that our CB duo is not Hobbs-Samuel. That would simply be pathetic.

LOL. I knew somewhere when the pick happened you were pleasuring yourself to images of Graham in an Eagles jersey, not always do you get your guy from College on your pro team.
I kinda assumed it was for Earl also, and while both are great players I gotta admit being a huge Earl Thomas fan I'm glad we don't have to face him twice a season for his career. Not that he was better, but he was my favorite player and I would of hated that.
Not bad value at all for the trade, and you guys have alot of work left to do also with the picks. Just be thankful you didn't take JPP and the G-men did :D

got to be honest, dont like this pick at all. we could have stayed at 24 and got Everson Griffen (could've traded out of the 1st rd really) and still have the rest of our picks left. whats done is done.
with the 37th pick i like Vladimir Ducasse and with the 55th pick i like Akwasi Owusu-Ansah.
of course the Eagles will take neither because they dont know how to evaluate talent at positions other than QB.

Graham's value is worth it, IMO, he'll end up being much better than Griffen, and fits the Eagles better. I love it. I actually like Ducasse and Ansah, but I don't agree with you saying the Eagles don't know how to evaluate any other position than QB.

I hate to say it, but as much as I love Graham as a player, this was a big reach.
The #1 need going into this draft was DB: either CB or S. The Eagles had a shot at both Kyle Wilson and Earl Thomas, and instead went wiht a DE when they were already stacked at the position (Tapp, Abiamiri, Cole, Parker, etc)
If either Kyle Wilson or Earl Thomas make the Pro Bowl next year and Brandon Graham does not, this is going to be really hard to stomach.

no way, Griffen is the best DE in this draft. he didnt put up the numbers Graham did but will be the better pro, he is bigger, stronger, faster and more explosive by a mile.

And now, all of the good cornerbacks are off the board because there was a big run on the CBs in the late first round. Kyle Wilson, Kareem Jackson, Patrick Robinson, Devin McCourty, Joe Haden - all gone.
We head into the 2nd round of the draft with practically zero depth on the board in terms of DBs, and practically zero depth behind Asante Samuel and Ellis Hobbs on the roster.
This is not a good situation to be in, guys. I have a feeling the Eagles f*cked this draft up.

Kyle Wilson went what, 29? I guarantee Graham wouldn't have made it past 19.
