3rdand12 Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Can't teach speed and....evidently you can't stop an organization from imploding! Eagles are a lock to finish 4th in that division. but they will have 30 million + invested in QBs YAY! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augie Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Apparently the Eagles new play book includes the "Jump Catch". Well done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eball Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 I'll never forget TJ's "play dead" role on the Jets' KO return team against the Bills two years ago. Good times, TJ...good times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. WEO Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 I remember the Bills trading up and the hoopla around that it might be Russell Wilson... Oh n o...he was way too short. The best part was Buddy describing the move up to TJ not just as "bold", but proof that "we're riverboat gamblers." His awfulness cannot be overstated.

That's on a coach who'd rather trick teams than beat them. (Not naming names.) I wonder if TJ was ashamed to be doing that? I hope so, for his sake.

Miyagi-Do Karate Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 Funny that those that laugh at TJ Graham support olympic hopeful Goodwin. TJ has been a FAR more productive player I pretty much laugh at both. But you gotta admit that TJ's jump catches, critical mistakes (fumble 6, wrong route on game-ending pick), and camaflouge hideout in the end zone are pretty comical.

starrymessenger Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 Funny that those that laugh at TJ Graham support olympic hopeful Goodwin. TJ has been a FAR more productive player They both suck. Especially when you consider the number of physically comparable (small and fast) good WRs who came into the league at or around the same time. Buddy didnt know wideouts.

Especially when you consider the number of physically comparable (small and fast) good WRs who came into the league at or around the same time. Buddy didnt know wideouts. Buddy was too risky with receivers. Passed on polished guys for people with better speed numbers. Goodwin is a great example. The bills passed in Markus Wheaton, who was taken by the steelers a pick after Goodwin. Wheaton was considered a pretty accomplished receiver, and Goodwin a better athlete. Wheaton has been far more productive in the NFL. Even with Graham, his big knock was being a poor route runner. There were smoother WRs later in that same draft, like Sanu and TY Hilton. But we had to go with speed over polish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And then there are all the good burners that teams like Pitt and Zona always seemed to find in mid to later rounds. Buddy, or whoever was advising him, just didnt know wideouts.

Our coaches likewise might not have been acing the test with regards to developing mid rounders. I mean there was Stevie but he was turned into what anyone would call polished. His success was almost based on his lack of playing within the norms of how things should be done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC Tom Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 Fun fact: with the Bills, TJ Graham had as many tackles as receiving touchdowns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manther Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 And he brings the art of the jump catch to Philly. GO BILLS!!! I boggles my mind that people think he can play in the NFL when he can't catch like an NFLer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC Tom Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 I boggles my mind that people think he can play in the NFL when he can't catch like an NFLer! Of course, according to NFL rules, no one can catch the ball consistently anyway... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CardinalScotts Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 obviously he flopped but why does Goodwin get a pass, like Graham selected 69th overall - Goodwin 78th. Graham was more productive and he stunk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agent 91 Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 Oh n o...he was way too short. The best part was Buddy describing the move up to TJ not just as "bold", but proof that "we're riverboat gamblers." His awfulness cannot be overstated. According to some people on this board that was Whaley's pick. You see... this is his 6th draft and all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
