Why the Eagles aren't drafting a RB in the 1st round - NJ.com

A back the Eagles definitely like is Pitt's James Connor, a bruiser who Eagles fans will love in a hurry and who should be there in the fourth round, maybe even with the Eagles' second fourth-round pick. Finally, and this might be the most important reason the Eagles aren't taking one of the top three backs, the team really likes what it saw from 2016 fifth-round pick Wendell Smallwood. It was a small sample, mainly because he missed the final three games of the season, but when given the opportunity Smallwood produced.

NFL draft in Philly draws record fan interest - Inquirer

The NFL draft, in Philadelphia next month, has received its most fan interest since the event moved from New York after 2014. In the 16 days leading up to Wednesday, 156,000 fans registered for the NFL Draft Experience, said Kamran Mumtaz, the league's director of communications. That is the most fans to have signed up in the first 16 days since the league moved to the fan festival format in Chicago two years ago. During the same period last year in Chicago, 48,000 signed up, so it's a 225 percent increase this year in Philadelphia.

Q & A - Iggles Blitz

Do you think the Eagles draft Dalvin Cook at 14? No, I don’t. I am not a big fan of spending 1st round picks on RBs. As I’ve written here, Cook is the kind of special player that could make me make an exception to that. He was a great player for Florida State the past 3 years and would be a terrific fit in the Eagles offense. But…there are just too many issues with him. Character. Medical. Fumbles. Bad showing at the Combine. Cook is incredibly talented, but you want a pick that high to be someone you’re really comfortable with.

NFL execs unfiltered on every team's free-agency moves - ESPN In$ider

It has been a transformative offseason at the wide receiver position within the NFC East. The Eagles made the biggest net talent gain by adding Alshon Jeffery and Torrey Smith. "I think both of those moves were really good moves for them," a pro director said. "The only problem that you get is, you kind of want to get a younger guy that will grow with your young quarterback. Alshon, if he is healthy, is a really good jump-ball, down-the-field receiver. Torrey Smith was in a system last year where the quarterbacks could not throw down the field, and he cannot run intermediate routes. That is why he didn't look very good."

Eagles draft targets at No. 14: Florida State RB Dalvin Cook - CSN Philly

Cook is a true dual threat, and a perfect fit for the Eagles. He has the ability and skill set to follow in the footsteps of Brian Westbrook and LeSean McCoy, who made their names in the west coast offense. At the same time, Cook represents a huge risk with the No. 14 pick in the 2017 NFL Draft. Ball security is a serious issue, more so than most prospects. Durability is a concern as well, with a history of shoulder injuries that required surgery. Cook, who will turn 22 in August, has also run afoul of the law on numerous occasions, though the charges were either dropped or he was found not guilty in all instances.
