Dr. Z gives Eagles an A/A- for Draft
According to Dr. Z from CNNSI, the Eagles had the third most successful draft of 2005:
A/A-
EAGLES — Saturation bombing with 11 picks, one behind the Bucs, who had the most on the board. Everyone admitted that USC’s DT Mike Patterson plays in a fury, but what a shame the guy’s only 5-11. It’ll cost him a spot in the first round and about a billion bucks. He’s a player, we’ll take him, said the Eagles, who made him their first-round choice. From that point it was obvious what they were doing — taking real guys, players, not, as the Steelers’ former personnel chief, Art Rooney, Jr., once said, “people who look good in their underwear.” Wideout Reggie Brown, OLB Matt McCoy, RB Ryan Moats, a Brian Westbrook clone and Sean Considine, a productive safety who will step into the Brian Dawkins spot some day — guys like that.
