| 0:00.0 | But the Eagles did have a good weekend. We think anyway, let's see what Jeff Mosher thinks from the Inside the Birds podcast. They broke it all down. And let's get his takeaways on the weekend that was for the birds. And obviously it all the way goes back to Thursday night. Jeff, you weren't on Friday. So I'll get your reaction to the decision to trade up. Mackay Lemon is the new pick and the new toy at wide receiver. |
| 0:24.6 | Let's get your thoughts on Lemon. |
| 0:27.6 | Yeah, really an interesting pick from an eagle standpoint. |
| 0:31.3 | Obviously, a person of value and knowing that AJ Brown is out the door, even more so. |
| 0:46.3 | Not your typical Eagles trade up for pick in terms of athleticism, but certainly, certainly in terms of production. This is one of the most productive wide receivers in college football last year, over 1100 yards, double-digit touchdowns, very versatile, |
| 0:55.1 | plays slot, plays outside. We'll complement what they want to do offensively really well, |
| 1:00.3 | will compliment Devante Smith really well, probably about as pro-ready as any of the guys |
| 1:06.6 | drafted in the first round, regardless of position, which is always great. |
| 1:13.2 | You expect them to be able to play right away. |
| 1:16.8 | So, I mean, I think like most of us, Mike, I'm sure yourself as well, |
| 1:22.5 | and you kind of thought going into the night offensive tackle was going to be the spot and that where they were picking might be the sweet spot. |
| 1:25.0 | But I did start to feel as we got closer to the |
| 1:28.5 | draft that guys that they might like like a Caden Proctor or a Blake Miller were going to go |
| 1:33.1 | a little earlier because of how much people value that position and because this was an interesting |
| 1:38.2 | year for those guys to get one. So and that's really what happened, you know. It would have been a |
| 1:43.8 | pretty steep price to have to move up to get Proctor So, and that's really what happened, you know. It would have been a pretty steep, |
| 1:44.4 | steep price to have to move up to get Proctor or the other guys. It seemed that they may have |
| 1:49.8 | tried to go up and 19 was an interesting spot when you go back to that night because, you know, |
| 1:55.7 | it seemed like Philadelphia may be talking to the Panthers there. And if the Panthers were feeling like Monroe Freeling was going to be the Eagles |
| 2:04.4 | pick, they probably decided, no, we're not going to trade with you because I think |
| 2:07.5 | they wanted the Eagles themselves. |
| 2:09.3 | Maybe the Eagles tried to move to that spot for Freeling, couldn't get it, and decided, you |
