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.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By strato · Posted

      To start with, you wouldn’t want to count up that value chart. You would see quickly where that is headed. But you basically did a quantity comparison, while ignoring quality.  I am looking at 2023 as the start, because it became all about Bryce.  2023 you have 4 picks plus DJ Moore for offense vs 2 (80 and 145) for defense.  2024 you got the 1st overall, the 32, the 46 and the 101 for offense vs 72, 157, 200 and 240 for defense. Leave the FA IOL out of it. Which was a crazy big  investment. But it wasn’t draft.  Anyway, that is basically 4 top 100 picks for offense and 4 picks for defense in 2024. Except they were 2 first rounders, the second rounder, and the 4th was really high at 101. Vs 72 and day three stuff. Please….  Second quoted/bolded… See you think we hate Bryce. That isn’t it at all. It is nice easy way to characterize us and discredit our talking points though.   Me, I do mostly hate watching him play. But I don’t hate the person. I hate the hell out of the stanning.  It started with the very first question I asked about his footwork, arm strength, and size. Height being the principle objection. I never even got to the durability factor. There was plenty without factoring that in.  But there was rabid opposition to even asking the question of what a couple of small fractions of a second extra closing time would do for the defenders.  What the extra time it takes to flip the hips would do vs a pass rush or on the other end after the ball is in the air. Split second more for recognition where it is going for the DBs.  The tippy toe backpedal.  That poo was a mess and it has always been mess but no Bryce fan wanted to hear it. “Go get another team to root for”. “It worked in the SEC it will be fine in the NFL you don’t know football you are just a hater”.  It got worse when the real games started. It has never stopped. It is nice that many people have left that train so there is less abuse but it hasn’t stopped.  So whatever…

      Whatever school you attended, I don't know and I don't care, but I would suggest demanding a refund.    Something was completely missed there.

      The draft capital since since 2023 has in no way been pretty even.  Especially when you zero in on day 1 and day 2 draft picks.  Draft capital has vastly gone toward the O over D.
