FINALLY! After an offseason of speculation, the best day of the football offseason is here. The NFL Draft. As of right now the Eagles have 11 picks in seven rounds. Numerous questions need to be asked:
1) Will we trade Lito Sheppard? And if we do, who will it be to and for what?
2) Will we make a play for a BIG WR like Chad Johnson, Anquan Boldin or Roy Williams?
3) Who will the Eagles select with their first pick? An OL or a CB? Maybe a WR?
4) Will the Eagles move up in the first to get a player they covet?
5) How will different trades affect what the Eagles do?
6) Will losing a couple minutes this year hinder the draft process? Instead of looking for the best offer will teams just take a chance on certain players or trades?
7) Will the Eagles draft a Special Teams Returner?
8) Will any other players other than Lito get traded? The past couple years we traded 1-2 role players to move up.
All this will be answered in a few short hours. Draft begins at 3:00. Three hours later than usual. Both ESPN and NFL Network will have coverage.
