At least we have a quarterback that can test the next 10 years or more for us so the guys we draft now will be developing right along with Patrick MahomesII and they will be doing some amazing things together. So we can build this thing and keep after it one draft at a time.
Boom Ch Ka I'm stoked I think Veach will do just fine drafting for us. He's not even old so he has fresh take for open ideas that even Andy Reid can take from imo. |

I do hope he deviates slightly from Dorsey's philosophy of top picks. It's one thing to occasionally draft for raw athletes. A number of them (Peters and Jones specifically) are okay because the shit that causes them to fall can be overlooked and examined with the excellent coaches and atmosphere on staff. The shit I'm talking about is continually over relying on athletes and potential over solid traits that produce immediate contributors.
No, I'm not saying draft for need. I'm saying maybe it's be better to find pass rushers or OTs that don't stop sucking hippo testicles until their third season. Maybe the less strong guy that doesn't require near the amount of transition time is better. Sometimes. I'm looking for more of a balance |

So, does anyone believe Clark's story and not believe that Reid got Dorsey pushed out now?

Kelce (suspended for weed), Hill (Domestic Violence), Peters (may or may not have punched a coach, dismissed from the team), Chris Jones (lack of motivation and motor, poor work ethic), etc. I don't mind drafting for upside in the later rounds, like he did with Fulton, LDT, DJ Alexander, Ramik Wilson and others, but I'd prefer to see Veach draft guys in the early rounds that are closer to a "Finished Product". The Eric Fisher and Dee Ford approach needs to be a thing of the past, IMO. |

Dee Ford has lived up to the first round choice. He doesn't have to be all-pro to be worth a late 1.

Per Matt Derrick
Derrick Johnson just walked down the sidewalk. Looks like he's reporting with the injured players attending camp with rookies & QBs. |

Reid looks like he has dropped a fair amount of weight during the offseason.
