Rex Tomb Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 It was bound to happen. Teams that are really good usually have players who think they’re worth way more than the team is about to give them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesMadisonSkins Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 Low key like what we did today. None of these signings are going to do anything long-term to hamper us (so far) and also fill most of our needs re: depth and upside. The Dantzler pickup makes me really happy. He's got a legit shot at being an impact guy as our 3rd DB. Doesn't preclude us from drafting a CB (and we still should) but it helps mask the need a bit. We will really go into the draft able to go in any direction. I still think we prioritize OT. But so far we've done a nice job of not NEEDing anything. That's what FA is for. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Started a lot of games for them - so brings experience. He also brings length at 6' 2" - but he had injuries and was inconsistent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one has stopped to remember that he had originally inquired about starting his coaching career when they brought him in as the emergency COVID QB. Taylor on the first day of OTAs as an assistant QB coach: “Ok, Sam, here’s what you need to do: close your eyes tight, gather as much power as you can, heave the ball as far as you can in Terry’s general direction. It might be 10 yards short, but he’s a beast, he’ll come back, risk getting concussed 25 times a game, and turn what should have been an easy TD with a good throw into a great contested catch. It’s amazing. Curtis can do it also! It’s ok to throw into triple coverage, the back judge will deck the safety. It’s amazing. If a defender gets his hands on the ball, they will most likely drop it so it’s ok to throw into double coverage. The crowd will go nuts chanting your name because they haven’t seen a good QB for so long they have the IQ of a gnat with a learning disability. (Breaks into Hei-ni-ke chant….) Sam: yeah, but I can throw the ball more than 6 inches…. Does all this still apply? Taylor: yeah, ok, I got nothing for you. 3 minutes ago, Koolblue13 said: Lost Edwards, drafted Dean.

It really comes down to them having to sign Hurts to a mega-contract and adjusting their roster accordingly.

SoCalSkins Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 Eagles defense is going to suck. If they lose Bradbury which they probably will and if they trade Slay that’s 3 DBs counting Epps going to Vegas. Even if they get decent replacements in the draft it’s not going to gel fast when you factor in a new coordinator as well. We need to come out and punch the Cowboys in the mouth and take this thing early. Giants Cinderella story is done too in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that's the case it's probably due to him being constantly injured. It's really hard for any player to get in a rhythm and develop when they play a game or two and then miss the next few. Hopefully, he can stay healthy this year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turns out Hurts was the best QB in the NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll find out more about him next year when he plays a Super Bowl schedule. This year he was pretty much a top 5 QB for sure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the Eagles figured Hurts was good enough to captain the ship, as long as the ship was elite and went all in for 2022. Once they have to pay Hurts they are hoping he has developed into an elite QB, but I sort of tend to think what we saw in 2022 was Hurt's peak. Not that it is a bad level to peak at, but it does require a ton of talent around him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will look very much closer to the 2021 version more often than not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
