Eh, I get what you are saying, but it's not like Howard never had a goal line fumble (Miami). Plus, the blocking up front will have more to say than anything else in that situation. That close, I would expect Mike Davis can punch that in or you can qb sneak it in just as easily.

Don't mind that we traded him and don't mind the comp. The issue is we traded him to a contender that just finished knocking us out of playoffs. Not sure why we help competitors take low risk gambles that could pay off for them.

No, just go with a rookie. They already have Mike Davis.

Agree, that is the only thing I do not like about the trade but it is what it is.

As I have seen mentioned a couple of times, the interesting thing in all this to me is that both Pederson and Nagy come from the Reid coaching tree, based on the West Coast Offense. So, why is Jordan Howard a fit for one but not the other? The only thing I can think of is a difference in the blocking up front. Does anyone know if the Eagle use a particularly different blocking scheme vs what Nagy and Hiestand have put in place with the Bears?

Problem with this logic is they traded with a team that has a recent SB and knocked them out of playoffs last year.
So not really hard to imagine Roseman got the better of Pace as he has down so the past few years already.

Not sure where you even got or read that LOL. what i was saying is, i wish we got a better pick. philly is drafting high.not in the front, or the middle of the draft, but towards the end.

I believe Mike Davis converted short yardage runs at the same rate as Howard.
Also, it might be 3rd and 1 because Howard got you 2 yards on 1st down and then was not a threat on 2nd down in the pass game so the defense double Robinson and you were forced to take 8 yards to Burton instead of the bigger play.

Howard was productive on bad offenses and bad teams.
Fox lined up and ran zone left and zone right over and over again, which is what Howard does well. It was not creative, dynamic, they did not score points, or win games. But Howard had big numbers.
Now they want to be creative, dynamic, and explosive and that requires a player at RB who can do more than run zone left over and over again.

Why, they will have given us 2 draft picks in the last 2 drafts.
We knocked ourselves out of the playoffs by not replacing Parkey sooner.

You don’t get a 2019 pick for Jordan, it’s a 2020 6th, which has the value of a 2019 7th. Might as well have held onto him at that point.

I meant to say in the NEXT 2 drafts.
We have a 7th this season for Hall and a 6th next year for Howard.
Keeping him is pointless if he makes the offense worst when he is on the field. Like keeping a cavity.
