Eagles WONT be drafting a QB this year

 

they have the worst cap space in the league

they will likely trade this pick to acquire more draft capital

they will likely have a complete purge of an offseason (Ertz, Jeffrey, Cox, Johnson) and go full tank mode

Eagles will have nearly 80 million in cap space 2022 and quite possibly the #1 pick next year due to them having likely having a Carolina’esque 1-15 season this year

I don't know what the Eagles will do right now and I don't think they know either, but New Orleans has the worst cap space in the league.  Even after the Wentz trade the Saints are like 20 million more over the cap than the Eagles.

We will see.

Apparently people up in Philly with "sources" are claiming they are in the QB market.  

I know the guys at the draftnetwork, 2 of them mentioned on their podcast said they recently spoke to some Eagles beat writers and others in Philly. 

And they said "Eagles Are in the QB market."  "They Aren't sold on Hurts."  "The reason for the Eagles wanting and holding out for the 1st smoke, was them wanting that 1st for Capital to move up.

Also Ben Solak at Draftnetwork is a Big Philly guy, and he has fully changed his tune and predicting them making a move for a QB like all of our beat writers.

They can't even make their own cheese steak sandwich right.  Cheese whiz, who the *** puts that sh*t on a sandwich.

I don't claim to be an expert but the creatively named Philly's here where I am that has a lady from PA who uses white American and that's it she wont' even order anything else for the store so I unno what to make of that.

She said she would only even consider provolone otherwise if she was the considering type.

There is no accounting for taste my friend.  The concept was good but the execution failed.  That's why it's called a Cheese steak sub everywhere else, so people aren't reminded of that abomination in Philly.

I've never had cheez whiz at all. What I've seen on the food network from whatever show it was had it on a laddle and it was looking like nacho cheese but I thought cheeze whiz was like in a tube poo lol so I don't know if there is actually a difference or what.

Pretty much the same thing but not as good.

Yeah, cheeze whiz on a sandwich is just gross. I'll never understand it but people here are all about it. It's weird cheesesteaks are what this city is known for but they have much better other sandwiches here.

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
