Really what? Our interior defense is maxing out at 310. That’s not the Eagles by a stretch. They have a physical interior DL. We don’t. 

 

I know Sanders isn't as big as everyone wants but he's actually a very physical player with very strong hands. He's also close to 300 pounds so its not like their taking a 280 pound guy. Thats more than big enough for a 3T

I mean we didn't get Jalen Carter if that's what you're asking. But interior pass rush was one of the biggest reasons they just won a Super Bowl. They didn't have Jordan Davis chasing down Mahomes, it was Carter and Williams on the field at the same time wreaking havoc.

Would you have taken him over Sanders at 41?

 

Personally, yes. I have a higher grade on Scourton. Not by a ton, but Scourton was my best remaining excluding the three sliders. Sanders was my 4th best excluding sliders.

As dumb as it sounds on the surface, knowing what this roster looks like…in the 3rd round take the best punter in the draft. We have so few open roster spots and nowhere for anyone to start. Go get your punter for the next 10 years. You hope not to need them to often but it absolutely can help you if you have a good one.

It is as dumb as it sounds.

Swinson's traits testing wasn't really good from what I recall, got me worrying about how he'd translate. That's why I'm gar for Oladejo and 6... i mean 72 now. If he's out then maybe the dominos fall to take safety there, and then you're waiting till 132 unless Beane can engineer a move down-move up squeeze trade again...

 

Scourton to Carolina, so he can get trained up on the farm team and help the Bills in 2029.

 

Yea he didn't do most of the testing  but he tested well in the agility drills which means he can change directions well and I'm okay with his size.

True but they also had Davis eating up double teams allowing those guys to chase 
 

Im all for pass rush but I was a little surprised we didn’t go for more of a 1T to take on doubles and help free up Ed and our smaller LB’s.

Meh. We need a NT. Not sure like giving that much for a questionable need.

“Questionable need” - it’s a starting role vacant

Jordan Davis has actually been a really big disappointment for Eagles

The people crying are just fixated on size.  “The eagles are big.  We need to get big!”  When we just need to get off the field on more 3rd downs. That’s why pass rushers are so important and why Sanders is a Bill.
