Engram? I'm ready to see him leave. He's a total disappointment because he's always hurt. Time to move on.

I recall seeing Engram on goal line once and he was asked to block... It was a disaster. Round peg into square hole, indeed. If you don't know how to use him, explore what you can get for him. He can't take the pounding on the line, obviously.

Those two were more likely to fall flat on their face when asked to block vs actually making contact with the defender. Good times

Good times Engrams does more than enough as a blocker when his assignment is to block a LB,head downfield at the 2and level,ect A lot of Barkley's runs early in the year were sprung by one of his blocks at the 2and level as well as his big runs in 2018 He is the perfect compliment to Kaden Smith what he does blocking in the run game.

Ah yes, Larry "Flip" Donnell....such memories. I remember going to a 2014 game against Houston and having a clear view of Donnell's signature flip and fumble at the opponents 5 yard line. That was also a week before Cruz's career unofficially ended in Philly.

Good targets in the draft? Hunter Henry is free agent we can try him out for a year due to injury history. The is also DJ conrad we signed to a futures contract.

Good targets in the draft? I don’t want to pair anyone with Engram. I want to get rid of him. I’ve lost faith in him.

Engram? I'm ready to see him leave. He's a total disappointment because he's always hurt. Time to move on. Comparable to Carson Wentz.

Cedric Jones is a total disappointment, Erik Flowers. Maybe the new HC will realize he is more of a big WR than a TE and play him as such.

Who don't you want to sign? You have a 16 player list of players we have to sign or you are going to melt down You can't buy a championship SMFH! I literally signed all the players I wanted using Fanspeak manage the cap, to fair market value deals and I had 20 million leftover just like Gettleman wanted.

What is "fair market value?"

Cedric Jones is a total disappointment, Erik Flowers. Agree with bigblueones.... Erik Flowers was a total disappointment as well but that doesn't mean Engram hasn't been one himself. You draft a guy in the 1st round, he needs to be available and a difference maker. As talented as he is, it's another total disappointment and another miss imo.

For example, I gave Yannick 17 million a year.

Will our new OC be able to keep Engram on the active list each week? If not, this plan falls apart.

Good targets in the draft? Kaden Smith has a ton of potential. Rhett Ellison is the best 2 way TE we have at the moment. He catches everything, was just completely ignored by Shurmur here and in Minnesota.
I would love to draft Cole Kmet out of Notre Dame. He was going to go back to school but decided to come out this year. I seriously think this kid could be the next Gronkowski. I highly doubt we will be in any position to draft him unless some crazy trade backs happen where we end up with a bunch of 1st and 2nd round picks. So you can probably forget him.
I want an offense built around one of the best weapons in the league, Barkley. Figure out how to make that work. I can also see us getting a really good WR in a trade back or round 2 situation. This is a very deep WR and OT class.

Wait till day 3 and get Colby Parkinson,Smith's teammate at Stanford who might actually be better..
