Introducing Our 2022 NFL Sensationally Sardonic (Mock) Draft
David and Greg make 1st round selections that were randomly assigned. Lot of Edges, corners, and receivers, a couple of falling players, couple of surprising 1st rounders, and three QBs.
Potential Surprising Eagles Draft Picks That Should Not Surprise Us
What if they Eagles walk away from the draft with a round 1 tackle, the top running back, and a day 2 tight end? It’s almost impossible to find any of these mocked to the Eagles at top picks but there are realistic scenarios where this is how the board falls. And while different from consensus, these would make the Eagles much, much better.
Top Eagles Free Agent WR Targets: What the Data Says
A quick look at some of the deeper data on the top remaining free agent WRs for the Eagles. Some I think we should cross off the list, but Keelan Cole, Jamison Crowder, and Jarvis Landry are three that would be nice upgrades.
Positional Value, Free Agency, and the Draft
A look at the cost of different positions in free agency, how the value of positions have been changing, and what it means for how to approach both FA and the draft. Also a quick look at the Eagles moves.
Our Consensus Mocks Are Always Wrong. And What a Howie Draft Could Look Like
A look back at the top consensus mocked players for Eagles picks shows consensus is almost never right on the player and rarely right on the position. And I take a shot at playing Howie through days 1 and 2 with a very different looking draft.
A Look at the Eagles at the Start of Free Agency and What History Tells Us
A look at the history of free agency signings and why the mid-tier is where the best value is (and the Eagles have been one of the better teams here). And some free agents I would target, which aren’t the big names everybody has on their wishlists.
What’s the Value of a Good Punt? (And Some More Jordan Stout)
A look at how good (and bad) punts affect actual scoring on subsequent drives, including high quality punts and short-field punts downed inside the 20. Plus, some more data and clips on Jordan Stout, this year’s best punter.
Trading Down: History of Trades and Who May Want to Trade Up With the Eagles
A look back at past 1st round trades that could inform what Howie’s options are this year if he wants to move down. Also, some potential scenarios and teams that could want to move up. And a bonus trade down mock draft at the end.
Offseason Assumptions, a Mock, and What Howie May Look For
My set of assumptions on the Eagles offseason, a final pre-Combine mock draft, and what I am interested in seeing at the Combine.
