Thanks to the bullshit gift 1st rounder from New Orleans, they add 2 talented defensive players. I just don't see anyone close to them. They are going to have a nice window here to be in NFCC games. Minnesota has a way to go to get into their level and even the level below (Dallas, San Fran). Kudos to their front office. All I can do is sit here jealous.....

This should signal the NFC SB bubble teams like the niners that if they hope to get to the next level they are likely going to have to take some bigger swings.  Should show the Wilfs how woefully deficient our roster is.  That eagles team is stacked and will be odds on SB favorites IMO.

Remember all the jokes a couple years ago about reagor over Jefferson....who's laughing now,  we've got them both and still wouldn't likely keep it within 10 points.   Honestly of these picks work out for them they could make the NFC a laugher.

Yes Denny, I might have just crowned their ass.

Not a big Nolan fan. Most overrated player in the draft I think. And Carter has some serious bust factor. Easily the most talented player in the draft, so if he gets his head screwed on right, the Eagles just got a LOT better. But what are you gonna get? There's a reason he dropped. 

"You better not bring him in your locker room if you don’t have established leadership and a plan in place because this could go either way with the kid. They haven’t found a person yet at Georgia that wasn’t relieved that the season ended and he was gone. Not one."

The way Zygi was celebrating the Addison pick you'd have thought we landed Bryce Young.

Philly is just going to be a huge problem for the next 5 years or more. That defense was damn good last year, and they just added two more Georgia studs. It's an absolute embarrassment of riches. It's them and everybody else trying to play catch up in the conference. IMO they widened theor lead over everyone else with what they pulled off yesterday. Vikings have a long way to go

All teams do that,  it's got to be mostly for the camera,  no way a room of professionals are that excited about making a selection 10 minutes after you know you get your pick of what's on the board.   Looks really cheesy.  I can see being more excited when the team before you picks and you know exactly who just fell into your lap.

Hello other NFC teams, the Eagles built their team in the trenches, & keep adding studs to replenish them along the way. S/b roster building 101…

I pegged them as next year's SB winner before this draft; their picks probably only make it more likely.   You wonder if the Vikings will ever focus on building a real contender instead of constantly selling us "culture" and shiny buildings and nostalgia for guys who used to play here.

Anybody just laugh when they drafted Ringo? They have that whole Georgia defense behind all the other talent they already had on that side of the ball. But don't panic everyone, we are trading down in every round and stacking late round picks
