going forward, we should pretend he doesn't exist.  Whatever you get out of him is a bonus. 

We need a Hubbard compliment.  We should draft one in round 4ish. 

the only sensible approach... 👍

It wouldn't matter if it was, TBH. It rings hollow unless Philly wins a SB.

Not really. It's a team sport. You win as a team and lose as a team. The QB pretty much is the most important player on the field, and affects and effects the game positively or negatively. If Daniels plays out of his mind, that doesn't cast a negative light on Barkley or his acquisition by the Eagles.

I REALLY hope so. Tbh I’m not sold on Morgan either. He needs to have a really good draft after last years disaster draft. 

Agree 100%. At this point it's tough to argue that our 1st and 2nd round picks weren't drafted too high. Whether it's Tepper, the GM, or the scouts, the front office has made some head scratching decisions in the last few years.

what a fugin bummer.  especially considering how good he looked.  maybe after a much improved 2025 season he will be the cherry on top heading into 2026 making a considerable playoff push

How good he looked? 22 yards on 9 attempts and 3 catches for 23 yards is all he did. We barely saw him and I don’t think we can say he looked really good. 3.8 yards per touch on limited touches isn’t flashing anything. We won’t see him until 2026, so who knows what we have and how long he’ll last.

I agree with some of these comments. Why did we wait until 1/18 to have surgery when he was hurt on 12/8? 42 days seems long. Pretty much seems like that guarantees no play in 2025. 

He doesn't need to play in 2025. And maybe not 2026 either from what I've read. This is but one peer-reviewed selection:

 

 "A devastating complication of returning to sport following ACL reconstruction (ACLR) is a second ACL injury. Strong evidence now indicates that younger, more active athletes are at particularly high risk for a second ACL injury and this risk is greatest within the first two years following ACLR."

https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC5226931/

 

 

Regarding your first question...

"The optimal timing of ACLR is an important clinical decision that affects patient outcomes significantly. Even though there is no consensus in the literature, there are some trends regarding timing of ACLR. Various authors suggest that ACLR be performed at least 3 weeks after injury in order to avoid arthrofibrosis. More important than time alone, objective criteria including perioperative swelling, edema, hyperthermia, and ROM are important indicators of when surgery should be performed."

    • It's who I want, but it'll take our third round pick. Don't you think?
    • Love or hate Scout Smitty, 35 minutes of our franchise's best WR talking about the new guy three weeks before the draft is an interesting watch   - Steve's choosing his words more carefully now and keeping his favorites close to the chest lol - Most teams had T-Mac as top reciever in the draft and the only one with WR1 potential. -  Finesse player in a large body. Compares him to AJ Green. "I love AJ Green." Interestingly Green was considered speedy and Tet ran a faster 40. - "F****** dangerous in space" per scouts around the league but has trouble getting seperation. - Below average strength/physicality for his size. Difficulty blocking and against the press. - Low energy when he's not the focal point.  Smitty actually saw some of himself in him there. I thought this was his best insight. - High floor. Believes he'll be good at worst.    Summary: A natural at wide reciever with unique athleticism for his size. Question marks around drive and physicality will be the difference between him being good or great.
    • I think they had their eyeballs on Tet all along and where hoping he would fall to 8. This draft is stacked on the defensive side of the ball. They knew if they could grab their guy without giving up draft capital, it would be a win.  They have a plethora of quality defensive players left to choose from. Happy they didn't pick Walker. Undersized and really didn't put up the numbers worthy of a high pick. Time to pick the guys you want on defense and start building on that side of the ball. Add another Oline guy late in the draft to keep stacking the line. I will be happy with that scenario.
