I can't speak for anyone but myself, but I'd imagine to most people, part time player at a position of desperate need is more important than a part time player at a position of much lessor need.

And considering we just took a NCB last year, and we have the worst run defense in the league, I can see why people would think that.

So instead they reached for McCluster because they knew that he was going to go with the next pick. They should have reached and taken Troup at #36.....at least it filled a ****ing need. We could have got our slot receiver at #50 with Golden Tate.

I'm sorry, but I'm not buying this bullshit that Philly was taking him.

There's no way in hell they were taking a guy that at absolute best, in a fantasy world, gives you what you already have in Jackson and Maclin - over Nate Allen.

Picking McCluster would have not only given Cobb the most dynamic receiving corps in the game, but a weapon out of the backfield and a wildcat.

So you know more than sal pal who has been covering philly for like forever.

I am not buying your bullshit.

If we reached for Troup at 36, then people would be bitching that we could have gotten him later in the draft.

McCluster is a better player than Jacoby Ford.

It's not bullshit that the Eagles were going to take him after us.

Totally agree with The Bad Guy about people being ridiculous for complaining about part time players but then mentioning Cody.

You can't calculate your draft based on other teams needs.:D

Sal Paolentonio is the most connected person in this country to the Eagles. He lives 10 miles from the Linc and is at the facility basically every day.

When he says they were taking McCluster, I believe it. I don't know why anyone would not believe what that guy says, but to each his own.

Just like Cleveland was going to take Tyson Jackson.

Or the Bears were going to take Alex McGee.

More like the time that Drew Rosenhaus had Willis McGahee act like he was on the phone with a team so Buffalo would think they had to reach for him.

Yeah, the draft is always on the up-and-up.

The Eagles may have wanted McCluster. The Eagles have different needs than KC. What makes sense for them, doesn't necessarily make sense for KC.

To think they need a player who is a smaller, slower version of the two WR's they already have, and gives you nothing the two of them don't give, is pretty ridiculous.

Everybody and their brother knew they wanted one of the top safeties.

To each their own.

Brian Westrbook caught 426 passes in his career with the Eagles. Andy Reid likes to throw to his RB...that's where McCluster fits...not as a "smaller, slower version of the two WR's they already have".

I agree with Boss about the nose tackle situation. After Buffalo reached for Troup, I kinda figured that we weren't going to be able to get a nose. If Dorsey and Jackson can make significant jumps, we might be able to get away with a serviceable at best NT.

So let me see if I understand this.

We addressed needs with UDRAs?

LMAO
