Eagles and quarterbacks

The Eagles allowing any accurate information about which player they're planning to draft to float around the world would be idiotic. Rule number one of the draft is don't let other teams know who you plan on drafting. That's why this information is bullsh!t.

If all the top four QB picks are gone then Rhule has to lay in the bed he made. He wanted Teddy. He wanted to beat Washington. He got it, and now he gets what goes along with that. Those choices had consequences, and now it's time to see what happens.

The odds of Trey Lance making it to us are pretty decent. If he doesn't, then we have a possible chance to trade down for more picks, or take a really great prospect who was passed over due to the run on QBs.

We might have to role with Rhule's TB at QB again next season. That's life. Teams make mistakes, and the fans have to endure it.

Second tweet cites Matt Miller though I can't find a direct quote on his Twitter. May have been from somewhere else.

The possibility of all four of the top quarterbacks being gone by pick eight seems real.

I think they roll with Hurts and bring in a solid journeyman veteran to back him up.  I doubt they go with another rookie QB.

This is the year that 50% of the teams in the NFL will have a new QB in 2021.  If they do not draft a QB at #6, and if Lance is there, they probably trade back.  Like #Soja says, and I agree, the QBs (4) could be there at #8 if there were no trades, but there will be trades.  Even if they do not trade out, NYJ, Miami, Atlanta, Philly, and Detroit all COULD take a QB.  Cincy could trade back. 

QBs that could be available after the draft:

  • Garrappolo (some say Bill Belichick will have him back in NE)
  • Carr (He somehow posts good numbers and they still hate him in LV--That's Gruden for ya--I don't want Carr either)
  • Tua  (Beware any Bama QB--they do not know what it is like to get rushed or have to throw a WR open--or not to have a defense that gives you the ball back when you need it)
  • Darnold (Sure looks like a bust.  Could the right system save his career?  The Panthers are not currently in the QB rehab business, so this is probably a pass unless NY gives him away.)
  • Hurts (He could not keep his job in Bama, but having said that, I think he may have the most upside of this list)

You can make an argument for the Eagles to take draft a QB.

You can make an argument for the Eagles to draft a non-QB.

You can make an argument for the Eagles to trade down.

All that really matters for the Panthers is that you have to operate on the assumption that a QB could be drafted at 6.

    • He has made some good throws yes. His arm isn’t great by any professional measure though It might be decent enough, but the poor footwork inhibits it.  So he has to really focus on that and from what I’ve seen he is not consistent.    peace. 
    • If only Bryce were 8'1" then CJ wouldn't have needed Woody Marks to carry him against the Titans nor the defense to carry him with 3 picks vs. Cooper Rush. If he were a real QB, he'd have thrown for over 250yds and the Texans wouldn't be 2-3. /s See? I can do the same dumb, lame poo that y'all do. Doesn't this make the board a better experience overall? 🙂
    • Their defense is on track to be worse than ours last year. Their run D is in the bottom half but their pass D is horrible.    32nd overall D, 32nd passD, 23rd rush D We are going to have to throw the ball against them, which means down field where they are vulnerable. Problem is Turnover Fred struggles to push the ball down the field and we have the 26th ranked pass offense. Running will help but will have to beat them through the air. On the flip side, Dallas’ offense is awesome.    1st overall, 3rd pass, 8th run.    But Evero’s defense is ranked 12th right now with the pass D around 10th and rush D around 14th.    If we can take care of the football (looking at Bryce) and we make plays down the field (also looking at Bryce) we can win, yes.
