Funny how when you hit on drafting your QB, drafting becomes alot easier.

Did you even read...or look at the history. 1 stud from your first round picks in 14 years is not very good. Yes his first round picks have produced some NFL starting caliber players more than not, but they are AVERAGE, AVERAGE at best.
If you look at all the picks it even gets worse. |

The thing you are missing, is that the position they were drafting, isn't a spot where you are gonna get top notch studs for the most part. There will be from time to time, but outside say the top 10 give or take, you're looking for solid players with ability to get better and become something.

And yet even after all those hits and only 1 stud... He still has 9 playoff appearances. Your attempt to discredit our new coach has failed.

If the point of the NFL was to win drafts you might have a point (but not really), but the point of the NFL is to win games. If you win games who gives a **** how your drafts turned out?

I'm not sure Clark is going to open the checkbook like the Eagles did. |

For the 12 years prior to that, the Eagles lived and died with the draft, and constantly replaced guys with new picks as soon as they hit their 30s. |

Meanwhile, Clark hired only one of the most expensive coaches, who is working to assemble an all-star staff and FO. Clark is cheap. |

Quite the opposite really. I have Zero doubt that Reid will get anything and everything he feels like he needs to win. |

So the draft is only one round now?
14 years and 1 stud? That's ****ing lunacy.

How has he done in other rounds? Off the top of my head, DeSean Jackson was 2nd rounder and Westbrook was 3rd rounder?
Ive stated this alot: Not every 1st rounder is going to be a stud or a HoFer. But if you get a solid contributor for several years, its still a good pick.

If you have a top 5 pick, you're looking for cornerstones.
Once your get out of the top 10 or really top 15 or so, your looking for good solid football players that have lots of upside. |
