The Eagles went From Chip Kelly to Stupid if that's even possible. How on earth do you sign Bradford to a large deal then Sign Daniels to a high end back up deal then trades away the better part of 2 drafts to get a QB ???

You would think they have to have something in place to get rid of Bradford right ? But in that case why sign the guy > Why not let a trade partner make their own deal . This is dumb on so many levels if they don't do something with Bradford

They're going to run the league's first 3QB offense. It's brilliant, actually.

No possible way Lynch is sitting for us at 20. None. His arm talent is off the charts and the knocks on him are really really thin. He single handedly put a team on the national map. I think we should trade up to get him, he is a cold weather big armed QB that is mobile. He would be fantastic in Gailey's offense.

This happens every year. Players shoot up the board because of hype then either don't get picked early or completely suck.

Main reason players shoot up the board is because very early on in the process all you ever hear from is the media and their so called draft experts. They assume what they think teams are going to need based on the prior years performance really know little to nothing about the teams back up situation since they have beenm watching college ball all year then everyone is shocked when players shoot up the draft ranks based on chatter heard at the combine and leaks from actual teams. Its the same crap every year and its really the scouts that make these calls and it the reason why these drafts and m,ock drafts almost never go as intended other than maybe the first few picks and this year they even got that wrong as most had Tunsil going number 1.

So in reality the 3 QB';s in question were always held in high regard by the teams and the funny thing is we wont know a damn thing until they actually get some real game action and face a pass rush like they have never seen before.

I was up at 5am this morning listening to ESPN overnite in the car. Cleveland fans calling in totally pumped up.  Stating that they feel like the car is on the right tracks.  

6 picks in the top 100 are to Cleveland.  

They have RGIII.  They are going to have #1 pick next year.

It's easy to bash Both of those teams now but in reality, three years from now neither of them will be looking for a QB.  The Jets can't say the same thing.  

We can run retread after retread or crappy prospect after crappy prospect Out there and hope for a miracle.  2010 feels like a lifetime ago.

Philly was middle of the pack on offense last year, dead last vs the run, 28th vs the pass, 17th in sacks.  They have Fletcher Cox and that's about it on defense.  They better hope Bradford or Daniels or the new wonderkind can score 30 plus points a game. One pick in top 75 this year, traded away high pick next year.

Or teams get desperate and make dumbass  moves.

All in for who? 

Watson, I think he's a legitimate superstar in the making.  

Right now, the two top QBs in this draft aren't available to us, and Lynch is not a Day 1 starter, alas he's really not helping us this year.  I'd much rather wait, trade Mo for a pick next year, and go all in on Watson because I think he's worth giving up 3 first round picks for.

We were looking for a QB three years after drafting Sanchez. There's no sure thing with either of those two, especially when they're playing for teams who've given up so much to get them.

Nearly all drafts take about 2/3 years before you get an idea who hit and missed. Right now all we know is they've given up a lot.

Cleveland got a good slew of picks and are really putting a lot of faith into RGIII.  For a morbid franchise like them it is difficult passing on a potential franchise QB for the next 10 plus years.

This trade was a heist for Cleveland they got a goldmine of picks
