  • Reid gave Howie all the praise for Watkins pick after the pick

    FWIW

    Philadelphia media likes to stir things, but when it comes to tough questions, you don't get them. I guess they worry more about future access to the Eagles.

    Someone should throw this quote in Howie's face: “Howie had this guy, right from the get-go, at the top. This was a guy that he really wanted and liked,” said Reid.

    ...and then ask him to comment on it.

      Look at the Def players other teams snagged in that draft! That draft set the dream team back 4 years.

      1st-4th round picks make me naucious. How can you fuck up a draft any worse than they did?

        Whoever ultimately made the decision on Watkins, Howie's group was responsible for the due diligence on the bum.

          Yep. Reid's day to day is coaching. Howie and his guys bring him their list of guys they have scouted and want him to consider.

          They turned him on to Watkins, not vice versa.

            gotta have a new target to hate or it wouldn't be igglephans.

            Howie. Your turn.

            If Chip Kelly eventually wins a super bowl, it will be despite Howie's ineptitude. If he fails to win a super bowl, it will be because of.

            Welcome to your new role.

            Hate on, Igglephans. Hate on.

              That doesn't change the fact that Howie is clearly accountable for the Twatkins, according to the Reid statement.

                  Reid said that at the time they drafted Watkins. You think he was lying?

                    I just find it nauseating he refuses to take any responsibility at all for the Watkins pick.

                    Weasel tactic.

                      Its not about hate its about accountability. If you want to criticize anyone maybe you should look to jeff lurie instead of the fans. Lurie is the one who lied and tried to rewrite history by claiming roseman wasnt responsible for the epic fail that was the 2011 draft.

                      I dont hate roseman. I think he has done some good things. But to absolve him from blame for a total and complete fuckup pretty much makes you a lemming.

                        you know if a fire had broken out in the locker room in the last couple seasons, the eagles would have looked pretty damn smart having watkins around to organize the response. maybe he's the reason there hasn't been one.

                          And you know that if Twatkins HAD turned out to be the balls, Howie would step over his own grandmother to take credit. Jeez, he daily crows about the last two drafts which, as near I can tell, include a bunch of players who really haven't done dick in the NFL so far.

                            Howie studied under the best self-promoter in the NFL.

                            Somebody tell me how Roseman is an improvement over Banner.
