    Spoiler: They didn't do so hot...

    6 right out of 32 for most of them. Hell the first two picks are a gimme so they really got 4 of 30 for 13%. Mocks drafts are crapshoots. Never any reason to get too stirred up about them
    Wait until next year is a terrible philosophy
    Hope is not a strategy
    RIP

      Mocks are crap shoots as are grades. Most of these grades are against what these people thought they should have did against their mocks.

      Honestly if you look at what Howie said he wanted to do, if you look at what we all wanted this team to do, Add speed, add receivers, add linebackers, add offensive lineman. They achieved all of that. Now you can not like the player they choose that is fair. But overall they achieved what they wanted to achieved. Time like everything else will tell if they are right.
      Were from Philly F in Philly no one likes us we DON'T CARE!

        and the next big odds are actually being a contributing NFL player
        We're looking for people that are fundamentally different,” vice president of player personnel Andy Weidl said Saturday night. “The love and passion for football, it's non-negotiable. They're caring, their character, they do the right thing persistently, and they have a relentless playing style that you can see on tape. The motor, it burns hot. You see them finishing plays. They have a team-first mentality. They're selfless individuals.

            They're entertaining, and that's all. Years ago I used to buy all of the pre draft publications to try to divine who the Eagles might pick. Especially when I was stationed overseas. As this past draft shows once again, no one knows! So when these experts get bent out of shape over draft picks/slotting, I've learned to take it with a grain of salt. What matters in regard to prospects and draft slot is what the team thinks. Not the experts or the fans.

            (I will say that if I were to buy a publication today, it would have been the Pro Football Weekly draft book. Didn't have a mock in it, but it did have loads of scouting information on draft eligible players.)
