What the hell are you talking about? Some one "and-one" my post in question. Once again, I don't care if you disagree with my opinion, but I gave you a detailed explanation as to why Huff could be better and you retorted with.... NOTHING! Just don't quote my posts anymore if you don't feel like contributing anything to the prospective conversation you are generating.

Let's see Matthews was considered a top wr and huff wasn't in many people's top 20 plenty info out there that I don't need to waste my time typing scouting reports on my phone

Not trying to get involved in a discussion I wasn't in to begin with, but no one truly knows who will be the best in any draft class for at least 3 years. Even the so-called "experts" (who interestingly enough are not currently employed by NFL teams despite their incredible mock draft skills..yes, that's sarcasm Mel Kiper) don't know despite them already publishing draft grades.

Of course no one knows all I stated was his opinion was an unpopular one and it is and that he was wrong about huff having better hands at least based on the tape

I find it hilarious how many WR have question marks about bad hands, such as Benjamin out of FSU who I was glad the Eagles did not take. Their position is all about catching the ball. If you can't catch or have trouble doing so, switch to CB.

Definitely, I wouldn't want you to waste your time. You're right, the Lions should have definitely taken Charles Rogers over Anquan Boldin or Mike Williams over Vincent Jackson. All the analysts and mock drafts said so!

No, you said that EVERYONE would disagree with my opinion. If you said it's an "unpopular" opinion, I would agree.

And I'm not wrong about Huff having better hands. Provide me statistical evidence that I'm wrong and I'll concede. I know this is a futile request because you never provide any support to your claims, so I am the one who is, in fact, wasting his time.

Every scouting report you can find backs up what I saw on tape which is that he often drops uncontested balls. Usually that can be contributed to lack of focus so maybe he fixes that maybe he doesn't

"Every scouting report" doesn't shed any new light on this conversation. Jordan Matthews having a 7.69% drop rate (above average drop rate) is more information than you've provided. As usual, I'm not going to continue this argument because its fruitless arguing with someone who provides no statistical backing to their claims.

It's okay. Just don't say that Jordan Matthews' hands are better than Huff's since it's painfully obvious you have no idea.

My money is on Chip not George the armchair QB that works 3-11 in the factory. The mock drafts all over Espn and the internet makes people think they know more about the game then the scouts. McShay and Kiper would actually have NFL jobs if they knew what they were talking about.

Drops have a lot to do with the QB. Remember how the eagle receivers used to lead the league when McNabb was the QB.

im not even saying he will suck im saying he wont be as good as matthews. which obviously chip thinks as well given he traded up for matthews in the 2nd

Eagles won't be drafting 1. And your point? Foles is accurate and doesn't throw worm killers. Drops aren't a problem with the Eagles.

I think Reynolds is a much smarter player.



I hope so! I was just talking about how he's built and how he moves around the field/how he hits tho :D

Mcnabb was elite. And he had a lot of drops. Some QBs aren't accurate or throw a good catchable ball.

Not to worried about players with drop problems. Wasn't that one of Ertz' traits coming into the draft last year ? He seemed to not have many problems last season.

I like the Jordan Matthews pick btw. Probably my favourite pick of our draft. Kid seems really likable.

the draft is a crapshoot for the most part. Not everyone turns out to be good we can't really assess the draft until years down the road. I think chip made the best points that if people who draft well in the 6th round are so smart, why didn't they draft the player earlier? You can only do so much when evaluating all this talent on the board. Almost everyone in question looks good, you just have to find the guy you want.
