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.

    • FLA showed everyone it’s not about superstars. they bullied the best line in the NHL into obscurity. they played hard, were in the right positions, and ran over everything that got in their way.
    • That’s really not what you said and when I even expressed doubt as to your intentions with the post you doubled down and remained unclear on whether you were trying to drag Dean Smith for whatever reason. You just got the facts wrong, which if you don’t follow the local college programs like you say then maybe you just were mistaken and thought Smith didn’t win championships or have legit superstars, and that is ok, but you just doubled down when my first post was more corrective than anything. I’m not sure what you expect posting objectively false things like “RBA has a lot of wins with nothing to show for it like Dean Smith” (paraphrasing) on a message board with plenty of UNC fans. I’m not taking it as a personal affront, we can agree to disagree, Dean Smith’s legacy fortunately will not be affected by this conversation. Screw the (Florida) Panthers?
    • Bring in the free agents and trades.  Florida is the best team and unless Tulsky makes it happen, it’s more of the same…which isn’t bad…but it’s time to win a goddamn cup.
