The Philadelphia Eagles are Super Bowl champions.

0:07.0

Eagles fans everywhere. This is for you.

0:12.0

Let the celebration begin.

0:15.6

Hey, Rube, you can see this piece of paper here. This is all the ingredients we need to be successful.

0:22.2

Number one, do a podcast, number two, unmute our lines, number three, have fun.

0:32.0

Yeah, so we spoke to Howie, Doug and Andy Weidel, after everything was over today and how he kind of said that his outline for the off season, he went at Doug's office the day after the Seattle

0:44.8

playoff loss with a piece of paper and he held it up it was if he just happened to have it right next to him

0:50.4

but he just happened to have it there he's just been carrying that around for months for months since January and the piece of paper said can he run? Is he healthy? Does he love to play? That was kind of the libretto for the for the kind of

1:06.0

player the Eagles wanted to go after this off season. So that was there.

1:09.8

That was the blueprint. Yeah and for the most part in the draft that kind of checks out, and we'll go through the entire draft here.

1:16.3

1:57.7

2:14.5

seventh rounds. That's just the reality of football and drafting and

2:18.0

finding players. So I don't think there's anything he could have done once once he picked Jhel and Hurst in the second

2:24.8

round that would have gotten the overall grade above C minus type area.

2:30.5

Yeah, that's funny you say C minus because that's kind of where I am. I would liked what he did on day three and we're going to go through pick by pick. I thought he did a good job. He, you know, he got some, in day three you're just trying to get guys, you're throwing darts, right?
