Ill be honest with you.. I think the biggest thing that bothers me about it, is that it feeds the idiots who continue with the whole Mason isnt good enough shtick. Its BS. Mason hasnt done anything to warrant being pulled.

I could only imagine how different things would be right now if the roles were completely reversed and it was Neuvirth who led them on the run to the playoffs ,etc.

Still down 0-3? I'd say start Mason.

I'm not even going to say what it is. lol

In Philadelphia, backup goaltenders are beloved by the fanbase only after 1) white backup QBs and 2) career minor league power hitters.

Its so true. Its like blaming Cole Hamels for giving up a 2-run-homerun in the bottom of the 8th inning of a 0-0 game.

I'm still waiting for Darin Ruf to properly develop.

#Eagles get No. 2 pick and 2017 fourth-round. #Browns get No. 1, No. 77 and No. 100, along with 2017 first-round and 2018 second-round.


I guess they are going after that QB

I am a Cowboys fan so I like it. I am hoping Jalen Ramsey falls to them at 4. I think He is best player in this draft.

I don't follow college football, but from what I've heard, there's no Peyton Manning/Andrew Luck in this draft. More Joe Flacco types.

See, many people know this stuff happens, even in the playoffs. It happens every two or three years or so

But because Jeremy Roenick has ZERO perspective beyond what he saw five seconds ago, Mason's goal is the worst goal ever

Take a look at some more "worst goals ever," including some in the playoffs:

The kid that everyone is clamoring about was an afterthought until the draft combine.

At least Griffin had played in a tougher conference

If it's Wentz...JFC. He played at North Dakota State. And while that doesn't mean he can't get the job done...Dear Lord.

North Dakota State.

By all accounts he definitely will. And AGREED!

If by some chance he doesn't, Joey Bosa will be a nice consolation proze.

I love how NFL draft order is determined largely by a 40 yard dash, how high you can jump, and the amount of pull-ups one can do.

If they take Wentz -- and they will -- two things:

1. They've got a bigger set of brass ones than I ever will

2. IF Wentz can't play, careers will end and NO ONE, and I mean NO ONE, will ever forget

Still scared the Charges take him since they lost Weddle. I am hoping for Ramsey in the 1st and then maybe derrick henry in the 2nd if there. If Jaylen Smith from ND drops due to his injury I would love to grab him in the 3rd and stash him since he cant play next season

The decision is clear.

Trade the #2 overall pick and that guy who's really good on defense, #91 I think, to the Rams for #1.

While there's no way to say for sure, I read today that they were looking to take Goff

I can pretend that Goff can play
