It would be funny if the new GM takes a guy like Fisher from a small school after the fans kept complaining about small school guys.

Freeman is gonna look so silly in practice. I don't think it feasible Revis is there week one but I'd love to see him own Mark Sanchez.
Al is gone. Seems like they have become more level headed in their decision making. They are going to go with the safe pick on defense, since it is so depleted. They have all that dead money, so they are going to make sure that they get a return on whatever they invest in going forward. Hence the safe pick in my mind.

The Eagles take Jordan. 100% no doubt at all.
Explain...

Dion Jordan would be a great fit for the Eagles defense.
Dion Jordan for the Eagles. Would take Eric Fisher if he was available. They need some more playmakers that fit their 3-4 defense since Cole and Curry aren't perfect fits, Chip Kelly coached him at Oregon, and their starting CBs are decent enough to wait until later to add to it.

I'm in the minority but I honestly think looking back at their college careers and who they played that Jarvis Jones is the better pick between Dion Jordan and Jones.
Eagles are going 3-4 right?
edit: You'd also have to wonder if Chip Kelly would be excited to take one of his own college players. Dion Jordan is about as known of a quantity as Chip Kelly can find but I think if Chip Kelly passes on him in the draft, that's damning evidence against Dion Jordan.

would think eagles go offense to hrlp chip run his offense. but eagles d does need some work

Wildcard berths that can't beat teams without a winning record should have homefield advantage
If Dion Jordan is available, the Eagles will take him and complete the worst-case scenario for Detroit.
I think that even though he's medically cleared, teams are still scared of Jarvis Jones and his spinal stenosis injury and he drops on draft day.

Chip said he wants freaks and that is Jordan. They are switching to a 3-4 and need another LBer.

ill go with jordan then. did not know they were going 3-4 this year
Lions being in the worst-case scenario means this is exactly what will happen.
Sounds good to me. I don't follow the Eagles closely enough to know what they need or want to do.

I think if we're talking about what teams *should* do, I can't imagine a single quarterback taken before the third round.....maybe maybe the middle of the second.
Which was also Gruden's biggest criticism on Manuel iirc.
If he's the guy, then he's the guy. The Eagles have a very real need at the position. I think Manuel fits that need. He's also not going to be around when the Eagles pick again. That's why I put it out there.
I can sit here and tell everyone that these qb's aren't worth high picks, but Manuel is a better talent than Gabbert, Ponder, Locker etc. Teams are going to reach for quarterbacks, it's just a fact.
According to his agent, Revis has officially agreed to terms with the Bucs. So glad he's out of the AFC East.
I can see the Eagles taking another quarterback, but they'd be nuts to take one at 4. Geno Smith, EJ Manuel, Matt Scott... they can wait and strike when they feel the value is right. There's no saying the QB they draft can even beat out Vick, Foles, or Dixon for the job.

Manuel throws INTs. With Geno, he holds the ball too long and seems to not feel the hit coming, and when it does, he can't hold on to the ball. He is down my list of QBs, really b/c he's the guy I've seen the most. Neither guy make sense this high
chuck: You are making the pick. We would never have drafted Ponder or Locker as high as they went.
I think it's all about the teams in the top 10 being willing to take less. Best case for OAK is if Fisher is still there. Who do you want, if you have to make the pick?
Remember when Pete passed up Taylor Mays for Earl Thomas. Mays was mad.
I do think the Eagles take an OT.
But we also aren't making trades. That's what really makes this exercise futile. I think Manuel is the perfect guy for Kelly, that's all. I also think they'll try and get him or another qb in the first, especially if you're going to put him on the bench for a year or more, because of the extra year on the contract.

No guaranteed money basically means a one year deal right? That's how NFL funny money works?

Fucking awesome. One first and maybe a third next year. Trade rape.
That's a good deal. Revis gets paid if he's helathy and productive, Bucs didn't give up a lot. Considering. Jets had no leverage so hard to say how they did
chuck: Trades are just too complicated. Not every team will be trying to trade their pick, but it is a little murky here in the top 10. Just for fun
Well it gives the team total control, that's for sure. But because they just sent a first rounder + to the Jets, there's basically no way Revis is cut unless he can't play football anymore.

J-E-T-S! SUCK! SUCK! SUCK!
I think that the Jets got all they possibly could have gotten out of it. I'm just glad Revis is out of the division, we'll still play him next year though, but oh well.

For the Jets.
They just got a 1 and a 3 for a guy they couldn't franchise tag and weren't going to resign no matter what and is coming off a torn ACL.
This.
It's a great deal for the Jets and it'll be good for Bucs if they can keep Revis focused.

No guaranteed money at all means you can expect a Revis holdout within 2 years.
If he ever dips over the next years they are going to want to cut him or restructure.
