I believe we should hold onto our two first round picks and take chris wells and nicks from usc. That will be alot of weapons for mcnabb.Also we should try to use our 2nd and a fifth to go after edwards clevand will give him up. The with our 3rd and fourth pick up the best OL and DB the with our other two fifth pick up Bradon Tate from UNC he was a star before he got hurt and Chase Daniels he could be a steal and a star with his size.

We need to find a way to ship some our 12 draft picks to move up in the first round and get one of the 4 top offensive tackles. My favorite being Jason Smith but i don’t see that being possible. Then with our second pick i think we would have to see what falls to us. I would like to think running back or even if Pettigrew would fall. If all else would fail i think you would have to look at the best player on the board, possibly a guard or center to make a dominate line. Offensive lines are the most important parts of football teams as much as no one likes to hear that. Safety seems to me to be alright with Sean Jones. He is a major pick up, the best safety you never heard of. I feel we can get a quality receiver in the second round like Kenny Brit. A quality TE could be picked up in the third round, I see someone like Shawn Nelson or Chase Coffman. I also think running back is something you really need to consider. Someone who can run in between the tackles. I would like to see a compliment to Westbrook not a second coming. I like Beenie Wells except is injury factor. McCoy is ok to me maybe a reach in the first round but most likely wont be their in the second. Rashad Jennings, big boy, small school, very productive, can he make it to the NFL, a third or 4th round pick might be worth it to find out.

Dawkins is the heart and soul of the eagles team… but the eagles are notorious for letting older veterans go at the right time. just look at jerimiah trotter and hugh douglas. I think it's safe to say the eagles know what they are doing when they released him.

Ok right now i don't give a crap about the draft what i am worried about is them getting rid of dawkins there is no one else in yhe nfl that is more valuable then him if they get rid of someone get mcbad out not dawkins! dawkins was the heart and soul of the eagles that was probably the dumbest choice they ever made and probably the dumbest choice they will ever make!

I disagree Chad. Harvin is far too undersized to complement DeSean well. Remember what happened to the 'Skins with Santana Moss and Antwaan Randle El. Two smurfs just don't work. And Scott, while a prospect at DT would be fine for the late late rounds, I think a much more pressing need on defense is depth, or even a starter, at safety. Demps is an unknown quantity basically, and though Mikell has really stepped up his game, we lack depth with #20 close to the end of his career and at this point out the door. Someone like Louis Delmas from Western Michigan would look great in Eagle green if we could snag him at a value point.

I think they should get in the first round Percy Harvin and Cris Wells.
Percy and DeSean would be awsome together with their speed.
Cris would be good power HB for the eagles.
