2011 NFL Draft

I've been a fan of the War Room at the sporting news' site. It's not free though, $4.99 p/m or $39.99 p/y and you also get a years subscription to the magazine. I'm not sure about any other sites.

This team has been riding on Moss being our #1 for years...
He's a #2 at best.

Until we go after true talent at the WR position,we are going to suck ass for years.

This will be a great draft for WR's as well as a great year for WR's in Free Agency.
Hell...There are WR's being let out of prison we could nab..lol

If we do NOT upgrade this spot,we will not be a Playoff game.
You can talk about the O-line,D-line Linebackers,CB's..safeties..whatever?
All of which we need to get better..I agree.

I'm not saying we need superstars in all 5 WR spots,but we better get a TRUE #1.
Moss is NOT that..He's a #2 at best.
Probably would be a #3 on some teams...

That will NOT win championships.

This team needs an Andre Johnson
A DeWayne Bowe
A Calvin Johnson
and so on...

and that's not to win a championship
That's just so we can score some damn points and compete against these great teams and defenses.

Give us a #1 WR...then have a guy like Santana Moss and Armstrong as compliments to our #1 Wr and we might have a chance.

We have not scored 30 points one time this season.
It's been a continuous theme for quite a while.

It's not because of QB imo though...
As bad as I truly can't stand Jason Campbell and I almost loathe him....
He's not why we couldn't score 30 points very often if at all.

Guys like Matt Cassel
Matt Shaub
Stafford/Hill

These QB's are not great...

They have true #1 WR targets as well as WR's that compliment them.

This MUST be addressed,if we are to be any good from here on out.

I agree that we need a true #1 but the far greater need is a better offensive line, wasting a pick on a #1 and then having to wait to develop him won't do any good without a solid offensive line -- with more time to throw, DMac can find other targets and our RBs will have holes to run through.

Priorities
QB of future
DL
WR
OL

in that order...OL is only lower on the list because I know Shanny wont draft interior linemen high.

At 4-5 we're out of it eh?

:doh:

Yea, we will probably lose both Giants game, and a game against the Buc's or more likely the Jags. 2-3 for the last five games, losing to the Vikings after beating the Packers and Bears......... our team is too up and down.

Right now, if you ask me what are needs are from greatest to least, its:
Center
Guard
NT
CB
WR
DE
QB of the future

RT, C, RG.....i don't care...use the 1st two picks on OL!!!....we complain EVERY WEEK about the OL.....drafting anything but these positions is dumb IMO...and it is only MO. We have been drafting the ''best player available'' fo 10 yrs (except last yr)!!!! Eagles and giants go after the big uglies 1st....THEN skill players. That's why we get our butts kicked in the trenches six times a year. I lived in philly for 6 yrs...and no one pays attention to their drafts...why?? B/c there boring....by picking OL/DL all the time. Which is why they contend for nfc east champs every year...enough said for me...OL all the way....FA the skill until the lines are youthful with depth

I don't believe you need to draft an OL high just to say you did if he's not worth drafting high. In the past 10 years the Eagles have taken an OL in any of the first 3 rounds only twice, the Giants three times, and the Skins three times

So K Williams and the injury prone Torain are the future at RB? Shanny offense is dependent on running the ball. And the 3-4 key position along the front 7 is NT. So my priorities in order:

1.NT
2.RB
3.WR
4.Interior Olineman
5.DE

Other areas: possible upgrade at Free Safety, possibility of replacing Carlos if he leaves which would be a huge setback, and drafting a replacement when McNabb leaves

As of right now there isn't a single Noseguard to be had before round 4 or 5 so I wouldn't really expect the draft to be a reliable source of prospects for the 3-4's most critical position. Then again the upcoming draft might give the Skins to take a guy like Mississippi's Jerrell Powe or Hamptons Kendrick Ellis in the later rounds.

Of course if history is any indication the best NT's usually come from the first two rounds (Kevin Williams, Casey Hampton, Vince Wilfolk, Haloti Ngata, and BJ Raji were all top half first rounders. Shaun Rogers, Jamal Williams, Terrance Cody, and Kris Jenkins were second rounders. Only Kelly Gregg, Jay Ratliff, and Aubrayo Franklin were second day picks).
