There was virtually no drama for the Eagles in the first round of the 2016 NFL draft. And yet, there was a ton of excitement. The entire world knew the Rams would pick California quarterback Jared Goff with the number one overall selection, leaving the Eagles with their preferred choice of North Dakota State prospect Carson Wentz with the second overall pick.  Wentz, even if he isn’t the starter in…

There’s one thing we’ve got to get out of the way when it comes to mock drafts. No one has any idea what will happen. You may think you do, but you don’t. I don’t. Nobody does. Not a single pick is a lock, not even one that feels obvious. Just wait until the start of the draft. No one will even have their first six or seven selections all…

There’s not as much drama surrounding the Eagles and the 2016 draft as a typical team. Or maybe there’s more drama. I guess it all depends how you look at it. The Eagles have just five draft picks. But they also traded up to the number two overall selection for a quarterback and we still don’t know which one the team will be picking. That’s pretty dramatic.  After the obvious…

Wasn’t this supposed to happen last year? Wasn’t last offseason when the Eagles were going to trade a slew of draft picks to move up to the second pick and select a franchise quarterback?  Those were my first thoughts when I heard the Eagles had actually completed a massive draft day trade with the Cleveland Browns for the number two overall pick. Here’s what the Eagles gave up: 2016 1st,…

AL West: Texas 1, Houston 2, Seattle 3, Los Angeles 4, Oakland 5 Last year’s surprising AL West champion is my pick to repeat, thanks to a strong young core led by Rougned Odor and Joey Gallo. The Astros have the most young talent of any team in the league, with Carlos Correa, already a popular MVP pick, and Dallas Keuchel, last year’s Cy Young winner. They should be in contention…

A year ago, the radio stations in Philadelphia were dominated by the talk of the Eagles attempting to reunite with Chip Kelly’s college quarterback, Marcus Mariota, through a massive draft-day trade. This year, the Eagles are yet again named as one of several teams reportedly in play for the number one overall pick.  Per Robert Klemko of MMQB, the Eagles, along with the Browns, 49ers and Rams, are interested in…

Should the Philadelphia Eagles Give Chase Daniel a Shot to Win Sam Bradford’s Starting Job?

How offseasons have changed in Philadelphia. A year ago, this city was obsessed with the possibility of flipping one Heisman winner, Sam Bradford, for another, Marcus Mariota. Now there’s legitimate talk about whether a 29-year-old undrafted free agent with one career touchdown pass can win the starting job from Sam Bradford.  It might sound crazy, but even a quick look at Chase Daniel’s contract shows that the Eagles may think…

The wait is over, as the Philadelphia Eagles finally agreed to terms with quarterback Sam Bradford on a two-year extension. Bradford’s new deal, worth $36 million with $26 million in guaranteed money, has an interesting breakdown. It’s essentially a one-year deal, similar to the franchise tag, with a team option for the second season. If the Eagles decide not to bring Bradford back for the 2017 season, they can release…

Remember when nine or 10-win teams like the Green Bay Packers, New York Giants and Baltimore Ravens would sneak into the playoffs, get hot and win the Super Bowl? Yeah… it’s safe to say those days are a distant memory.  As it stands, the league’s number one overall seeds have each reached the Super Bowl in the last three seasons. That’s six for six. In this postseason specifically, there were…
