Carson Wentz

For what rounds these guys are drafted, it blows my mind that these guys drop as much as they do and play as bad as they do. it blows my mind even more that they have been this position from college to the NFL and they are still dropping passes. Terrelle Pryor was a QB in college, selected in the supplemental draft, played QB in the NFL for a couple of seasons and then converted to WR. The sad part is that he is way better than all the WRs on the Eagles.

Chip Kelly really did gut the Eagles. I thought he would be a flop in the NFL with his stupid college offense he is using. I can see why they chased him out of there.


This week is going to be hard to watch. Seahawks are a great defense. The plus side is that the schedule should get a little easier after this week for the rest of the season.

As a Vikings fan the only thing I think of when I hear bad receiver Troy Willimason...

Is five drops per game a lot?

.......a little.......

That's because they are drafted based on their athletic ability instead of their skill. There are a lot of players in the NFL that I don't think are really all that good, but they had the physicals so they got drafted and once a team is invested in them they are going to try to get something out of them.

And then there's guys like Treadwell. Can't catch, no speed, average height, can't run routes. But he was strong and physical and played in the SEC so he was 1st round worthy according to Spielman.

Treadwell is not fast. He dodged the 40 at the combine. He did dominate in the SEC

If CW can somehow help the Eagles beat the Hawks in Seattle sunday they will be in the playoffs. Even if they don't but stay undefeated at home that may just be enough.

They need to win their next round of division games (goes without saying I guess)

He literally said "no speed".....? Just because we haven't seen Treadwell yet doesn't mean he is a bust. Everyone just chill the f out. Rhodes looked like a bust too, but he's turned into a pretty stellar CB.

Exactly. 0-3 in the division right now. Would have been great to get wins over Dallas and NY when they had the chance. They will need to win those 3 at home now.

He was a development project at best yet was still a first round pick. He's not a bust yet...but he also hasn't contributed what you'd expect out of a #23 pick. I'm just supporting my point of why a lot of NFL receivers aren't all that good.
