Sorry for Autocorrect or typos. On iPhone.

Just going to assume we go to 3-4 :(

Eagles Trade Pick 4 to the Cincinatti Bengals for 21, 37, and 53. Bengals have been in the playoffs for two years in a row. They've rebuilt well and need Joekel or Star to push them over the wildcard round.  

Eagles Trade Nnamdi Asomugha to the New York Jets after they trade Revis. Gain a 4th round pick, he restructures.  

Draft:
21: Xavier Rhodes CB Florida State
35: Johnothan Banks CB Mississippi State
37: Tyler Eifert TE Notre Dame
53: Kyle Long OT Oregon
67:  Marquise Goodwin WR Texas
98: Nico Johnson MLB Alabama
103: Micheal Buchannon OLB/DE Illinois
129: Kwame Geathers NT Georgia
163: Ororegie Uzzi OG Georgia Tech
194: Quinn Sharp P Oklahoma State


Cut
Patterson
Jenkins
Bell

Let everyone walk except Dorenbos, Landri, and Jake Scott.

Free Agency:
Ron Brace NT New England
Alan Branch NT Seattle
LaRon Landry S New York
Micheal Mitchell S Oakland
Larry Grant MLB San Francisco  
Antwan Barnes OLB San Diego
Ramses Barden WR Giants
Troy Smith QB

Alan Branch and Laron Landry are our notable pick ups (in the national eye). They won't bust the bank, and allows us to add more depth and role players.

Barden becomes a redzone weapon, and will attack the middle of the field consistently.

Grant and Barnes will help with the 3-4 transition, both veterans on a young team. Barnes as a pass rusher, and Grant as a run stuffer.

The nose tackles should be obvious.

I think Chip Kelly will make Vick or Foles work on whatever system fits them best.

Like some of the draft, i dont think we can get Eifert though. I would also rather draft a S like Cyprien in the 3rd, then get Landry in FAs. So I could go without drafting Eifert, maybe getting a Kasa out Colorado in the late rds.

Nice change of pace to the thought process.  I like the ideas of the draft.  If we picked up two quality cb's that would definitely be a win.  We would need to at least pick up one quality OL in FA though.

ya id prefer to get Cryprien later, and maybe Elam or Reid instead of Eifert

id also prefer Poyer, or Trufant over Banks.... though thats only cause i dont really know much about him

all together though it was pretty good

I don't think Banks will last to 35

Not a fan of Landry at all, I think he is really overrated.  I like the Alan Branch pick up though.  Could fly under the radar.

Surprisingly LaRon Landry was one of the bright spots in New York towards the end of the year. He knows how to tackle, brings punishment and physicality to the secondary. Is he Ed Reed or a pick artist? No. But he brings the toughness we need on this defense.

I think it's possible. Depending on how far Dee Milliner falls and Rhodes in the first, there's not a bunch of teas striving for rookie CBs, especially with a stronger CB free agency.

With Mitchell, Landry, Coleman, and Allen we should be fine at safety.

Eifert would bring more to this offense than people think. He's a big body, with WR speed, has great hands, and will go over the middle. Chip Kelly adds yet another weapon to this offense. Add in Goodwin who is probably the fastest player coming out, if not in the NFL. Huge playmakers.

I'm not big on Landry... and Eifert in the 2nd might be a little stretch. I want a solid safety in the draft. All and all this wouldn't be a bad off season at all.

Could be a small stretch. I see the TE from Stanford going before Eifert, and two 1st round TEs isn't exactly common.
