I do think he has a very good chance of being there. Big time self control issues that right now has teams backing off.

I can see the Jets scooping him up. They aren't exactly collecting character guys.

Then they take a 26 year old O-Lineman last year. They Eagles are so random with their selections. You have to hold your breath when they select, its almost embarrassing.

Yes, he was benched towards the end of the year for getting too many personal foul penalties.

He's now considered a late 1st round possibly early 2nd, it could change.

The Eagles dont take guys like him. He plays nasty and with and edge. Eagles want someone who is going to be able to knit and make nice sweaters for the coaches wives.

Their offensive line was terrible. Didnt get good till the end of the season. Vick was running for his life all season. Once they moved Heramanns out to RT they did much better.

Eagles have the Cardinals second round pick, of course they blew a 4th quarter lead at home to Red Skelton to help make the pick worse.

Too early but I'd think the Jets want a DE or a OLB to replace those aging players they currently have at those spots.

Hard to judge offensive lineman sometimes. Each quarterback is different. Vick holds the ball longer and uses his legs more to create time but also takes alot of sacks and hits bc of it.

Doesnt matter the Eagles will select a player who cant get on the field for atleast two years. Then when he does he wont be any good.

Kolb is awful. Cardinals have already given up on him. Look for Eli's big brother to land in the desert.

They did get better towards the end of the season. Im more concerned with turnovers by the offense.

The defense needs some playmakers. They basically played with 6 guys cause they have no LBs and Safties. They definately need to upgrade there first with as much talent as possible.

can't wait for this regime to end. they should at least have brought in an outside talent evaluator. this coming yr seems like it could be a waste for so many reasons.

He will be the starter next year. Samuels will be another player that will be traded.

I dont care where he goes as long as he brings back a nice pick and cap space.

You might be right. The Eagles could have a ton of picks if they deal Jackson and Samuels before/during the draft.
