This guy thinks we go Defense first Pick

I don't nec. think we should, bu I think it looks more and more likely.

Look at our history of our first round picks under Hurney, they definitely sway towards the defensive side of the ball. Now consider there is no true number one QB out there, with all the candidates having significant question marks about the main the 'top talents' are mainly defensive orientated.

John Fox's career started with Peppers, could Hurney try again with DL at the top of the draft?

Consider that most are expecting a much lower contract than Sam Bradford got with between $20-30 million in guaranteed money. A DLine stud doesn't look so bad at that money...

I love the one comment at the bottom of the article. Some idiot thinks we shoudl take the best RB available with the #1 pick so we can get the running game going.

Someone that stupid should not be allowed on the internet.

If only that rule applied here. smh

Eagles last asking price for Kolb was 2 first rounders. It may go down to one, but I can't imagine them dropping it to a third. With Vick's injuries and what not, they want a quality backup I think.

Also, I don't think we can make trades once a lockout goes into effect. :(

Oh i was just being optimistic our 3rd round pick is more like a 2nd rounder or maybe we could throw in a DB to shake Kolb loose they need Db help hopefully there won't be a lockout

    • From Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/nutshellsportz.bsky.social/post/3mo3rkrcezs2e  A look at Run Threat Rate across the NFL Run Threat Rate is the percentage of plays where a team either runs the ball or uses play action. This compares each team’s rate when leading or tied versus when trailing to show how much they abandon the run when playing from behind.
    • That's the current dilemma on both parties at the moment. If Ickey comes back too soon, he won't be 100% and his play will suffer. Leading to a potential decrease in his contract. If Ickey is unable to play and sits the entire 2026 season, his contract will still take the same hit since it tells all 32 team that he is not fully recovered. On the Panthers side, I'm sure they would want to keep Ickey if he is fully recovered but he is obviously in a contract year. They don't want to re-sign him to a massive deal since it be too risky and they know if Ickey is able to return to form.  Best case scenario, the Panthers wants to offer Ickey a 1-2 year heavily incentive based prove it deal. However, Ickey would most likely decline the offer and test the market as  another team can come in and offer Ickey a better deal if they are desperate enough for O-line help.
    • They have been giving him a lot of snaps at RT to give TMo some relief in camp. I think that will continue for the time being.
