Stanley!!! Stanley!!! Stanley!!!

[C5Alumni]

Trade up to #4? No Way. Trade up to #10 or #11. Yup. Welcome to Philadelphia Mr. Kuechly!

[Phorever13]

The eagles need a return man.  they should address that in the draft. draft like a cb, wr, or rb who can double as a return man.  they havent had one of those for a while.

[fieldsr69]

Is it me or has dave mentioned full back as a need in every column he's written for the last month? I can't wait until we get a fullback so that dave will feel comfortable with the position.

[BleedingGreen93]

im still a big fan of philly try for Quiton Coples just think what he will do paired with a Dline coach like Washburn and having mentors like Babin and Cole.

[BleedingGreen93]

and r rotation on the Dline is good but Hunt thats all he will ever be we lost Parker who was a great rotation player tapp seems to miss a few games but is decent when healthy and graham still needs to prove himself hopefully will 2yrs from his injury. we really dont have a true step starter if babin or cole goes down Coples could be that player plus a nice rotation guy and future replacement for Cole or Babin

[Dr Funt]

haha i cant wait till dave feels good about the fullback position.....im sure hes just sweating bullets thinking about because we really need FB now!!!!!! i just got back in to a city.....are the eagles seriously trying to move up for tanny?

[phillyphanwest]

The rumor is that 4 teams are trying to swing a deal for pick 4 and that Philly is one of those teams. I'm always surprised at the draft but I didn't put much stock into this story. Just like the "meeting" with RGIII at the senior bowl.

Funt- Bri is looking for you. He wants to show what's behind the shed.

[Dr Funt]

i hope its not what egypt suggested behind the shed im not in to that stuff.

[phillyphanwest]

Haha! No man it's cool.

[Dr Funt]

well i would like to know!!!!!!!! i was away at my hombre'z cabin gettin' my drink n eats on.

[Birdflipper]

What can we get at #4 that we can't get at the #15 spot or lower? Unless targeting a SPECIFIC player, there is more than one good player to be had at EVERY position except Safety and Center. And neither of those is a top 10 or even 20 player.

[Dr Funt]

tannehill would be the target

[Dr Funt]

i guess i wouldnt be unhappy if they moved up to get tannehill because he would be on the bench for at least a season or 2 possibly more, and might push vick to be a better a more complete passer.....good long term insurance policy on vick....they dont have any glaring holes although a DT is needed i IF think they really want tannehill they have the most leeway  with their current roster and having 9 picks, 2nds, if the rams want him they have some flexibility too.

[thatboyCA_GM]

No on Quinton coples we don't need to improve our strength d line we need LB safety wide reciever over 6"2 help fullback and OL backups. I think we should trade for another 2 but keep all of our picks using our next year's first Cuz if we opperate this draft right it will be the 32nd pick but it will entice a team Cuz it's a first

[Dr Funt]

i dont care what they do as long its not a bust

[thatboyCA_GM]

First round targets(in order of importance from greatest to least) kuechly/Barron/Floyd or trade back for brockers/Stephen Gilmore/or Stephen hill. 2nd round targets should be (in no order) mychal kendricks, alshon Jeffery,Bobby Wagner,Doug williams,and Devon still/jerel worthy or janoris Jenkins if he falls (big no on Zach brown )

[Dr Funt]

i want zach brown....hes 240ish......runs a 4.4.....solid tackler, amazing in coverage......has some inconsistencies with tackling and shedding blocks, but is a do it all type player who can line up any where, he can play zone, man and blitz.....i hope they land him......i dont like jeffery, not very interested in over weight WR's who dont get in an out of their breaks......we need a receiver who is bigger and specializes in that so vick can get the ball out......id be down with quick....i also wonder where sanu is valued, i think he'd be worth a 3d.

[cunninghamtheman]

Speculation. For the Eags to move up to 4 I could see only one player of enough value there. Now I don't believe this rumor myself --i think they are just helping the Browns make a better trade. Lets say they do pull the trigger though(its always fun to speculate even if it sounds absurd) they would be banking on a trade for the third pick to get Tanny. They would then take Kalil the only guy that rightfully has the value to be picked there.

[darksnake1]

id be ok with kalil, blackmon, or cox if they moved up to number 4. I pray if we do move up its not for tannehill or coples. Especially for tannehill. Y wasted our first rounder and future picks for a QB who might not be good in the nfl and who isn't even first round material. It'll be like giving our picks away for free.

[darksnake1]

Get a QB later on in the draft if they are so worried about it. Or wait till next year to make a move of that caliber and get the top rated QB

[draftjunky]

i wish we could keep 15th for Kuechly, then trade up late 1st for Barron.  Get a Dt and Qb later on.

[draftjunky]

Dream team Trade Vick and 4th round this year, 2nd, 3rd next year for Luck. Trade Djak and 3rd this year for blackmon. Trade Samuel and 2 2nds this year for Claiborne. draft Barron at 15. then e could have have younger cheaper drama.

[draftjunky]

get an olb in fa.  is wimberly still a fa. get him and s bell.

[brizer12]

I have a dream,......that drafty leaves his junk inda can,..where it belongs! Carry on,......GK.

[mateagle2]

Bri, what happened? Did you exlax melt in the truck?

[mateagle2]

Phils need to win the next 2 and climb back to .500 after first 10 games.

[brizer12]

Mateo,..warccthing that game ..at CBP,...,....left a foul taste in me mouf!......I see no juice or spirit in dere faces,..not one player would looks me inda eyes.......da phitens look dead,....carry on.

[mateagle2]

Cholie needs to do something drastic to motivate em
