Well, seems like most want a OT....I do , however all signs point to Jason Peters returning to play and at a high level.  Guys got 2-3 more years in him.   While our Oline needs a complete overhaul,  its more painful to see our pathetic CB's and S's on the cover.....   I cant rebuild this team in one year but I can make the bigger/stronger and Ive brough in another emotional D leader of men....

    1.   Dee Milliner  CB   6"1" 198   To me its quite simple.   ASO was a Horrid signing.  

    2.  DJ Fluker  ORT   6'6" 335    Peters size.....   Starting ORT

    3.  Cyril Richardson  OG  6'4" 328    This guy is a monster, trust me.

    4.  Khaled Holmes  OC  6'3" 312    Kelse is what 280...?   Real competition for the job.


    Of course we draft a S or two....quit crying.   I want to give our QB time and Shady 1000+ on the ground.  Darn man....   We are big and tough up front.  Rome was not built in a day....


    FA. Rey Maualuga   MLB   6'2" 262   Emotional, mean and stout.....
  Terrance Knighton  DT  6'3" 330    Great run stopper and gap plugger. ( from Philly )
  Josh Cribbs  KR/WR/S    God please get a real return man...please
  Michael Johnson DE  6'7" 271    Solid DE on the rise and young.....
  Matt Moore  QB   Expierenced backup that can manage 3-6 games if needed.


    Please leave some input..........

Who is going to play safety? We need a significant upgrade there.

[Golfesv]

Yea you have to go safety with the second pick, so many goods ones this year we need to pick one up since our wise leaders passed on earl Thomas !

[GoEagles614]

3 OL over 330 lbs, guessing were going to change to a power run team?

Terrance Knighton will not only be expensive, but will not be as good as a pass rusher that this team would like  

Micheal Johnson is young and up coming, but he will cost a few bucks when we already have 2 young pass rushers in Graham and Curry. Add in Hunt an or Tapp. I love Johnson's size tagged along with his speed, but unless we have a new coach this move is too good for our guys to sign him


No for Rey

I hate Cribbs. Living in ohio I see this man play every week. He is a one trick pony that fumbles or makes dumb plays more than big ones. He adds nothing to our roster at the offensive or defensive end.


Using your draft

I'd sign Louis Delmas at SS and Jarius Byrd at FS. Picking up disposable DTs/DE for depth, it will save money for two good S that won't come with a HUGE price. Delmas coming off an injury and Byrd(possible pro-bowler) not being the pick master he was his rookie season; they will hit the markets at a reasonable price.

With the addition of these two, DRC and Dee will look much better up on the line, not feeling like they have liabilities in the secondary.

Cox and Jenkins will be fine. Graham and Cole will start.

I think with a fixed OL, both safety spots filled, and a new coach (that runs the ball) the eagles will be pretty good, and young.

[Greenakers2]

Not going to advocate for players at this point, but wanted to say so much depends on the desires of the new regime (Obviously).  My express desire for the draft and FA is POWER-everywhere.  Sick and damn tired of finesse football.

Any coach coming in to evaluate this roster has to first make a determination on the future health at OL.  If Peters, Kelce and Herrmans get clean bills  the priority of OL early in the draft diminishes.  Eagles REALLY need to think about what they want at TE.  What they have is inconsistent with the rest of their current attacking players.

Likewise;  DT and Safety in terms of their defenive identity going forward.

Somewhere down the line, they are going to have to bite the bullet on Jackson and Maclin as well.  Adding a bigger downfield target to Cooper /McNutt in the later rounds (ala Bryce Brown-Steal of '12 draft-@ RB) is also a real good idea.


potential 3-13 teams have even more needs granted.......but I really think the new team has to start with what has been specified, take their lumps and go from there...............

[phillygrump]

I can't imagine there is a coaching staff in the NFL that would allow Coleman and Allen to remain the starting safeties.

In my opinion this is the Eagles biggest need. However, there are not safeties that would warrant using a top 5 pick on.

Trading back is an option. I still like Te'o, but at this point a trade back is looking better and better.

1.   Dee Milliner  CB   6"1" 198 - Disagree about Aso, but that's not for here. Don't mind a first class corner prospect since DRC is all but gone.

2.  DJ Fluker  ORT   6'6" 335 - Like the pick, but think he'll fly up draft boards. RT traditionally is a lower thought position, but so many LT prospects fail there, then RT, so why not just grab the talented guy?

3.  Cyril Richardson  OG  6'4" 328 - Not thrilled about going guard when our defensive backfield is still missing a safety. Also, with Mathis, Watkins and potentially Herremans there's a bit of a log jam there.

4.  Khaled Holmes  OC  6'3" 312 - I'm pretty sure Kelce put on 20+ lbs this offseason and was showing some great anchor early on. To me he's a center that can play in many different schemes because of his intelligence.


FA. - Just a general comment first. Currently we are $18M over the cap. Aside from a few jobbers I don't think we'll be the high bidder when the auction comes.

Rey Maualuga   MLB   6'2" 262 - I see him as a downgrade at MLB to Ryans.
Terrance Knighton  DT  6'3" 330 - Maybe if we move to a 3-4 and need a NT.
Josh Cribbs  KR/WR/S - The NFL is working to limit kicking related plays and he's getting up there (30 next year).
Michael Johnson DE  6'7" 271 - Won't be able to afford a solid, young pass rusher.
Matt Moore  QB - Not bad. Don't think he ever really had a shot in Carolina or Miami.
