[Palmer] The #eagles always thought the way the top half would fall, they’d have their pick at CB. Philly had the top 10 CBs in the facility during the process. They did a ton of work and considered Quinyon Mitchell the best CB in the draft.

Why does he look upset for being picked here
Unreal that this guy drops so low, I wanted the Lions to sneak up and grab him. Damn, oh well, lets go to the cowboys sub and watch them rage.
I cannot believe it. I legit can’t even fucking believe it lol
there’s simply no way they thought the draft would fall this way or they wouldnt have been exploring trades
So fucking glad I wore my white pants tonight!!
Trade the 2 2nd rounders to move back into the first Howie!
Just goes to show they already know the draft in the first round picks. I mean it’s chump change to the NFL to buy a jersey for every player, for every team, in the first round. Then add Mailata having a card to read from. That shit wasn’t live. I guess someone was sent to Australia with a bunch of potential cards for Mailata to read from…. gtfoh
Dude walking to the podium like Idris Elba in the Wire. Swagger.
This is gonna backfire on whoever drafted before us and needed help on defense lmao
Jerry Jones draft room looks like vader on the death star
Minnesota gives up a 3rd, 4th and 5th to move up 23 to 17
Howie stands Pat and gets first DB off the board.
Tremendous.
Howie did it again, wow
Fuck it trade up and take Arnold too. Lito Sheppard and Sheldon Brown all over again.
Thank god they didnt trade up
I love how these WIP analysts, who never played a lick of high school or college sports, are saying the eagles made a mistake. Lol.
Complete idiot dolts
Ah, yes. The exact kind of tweet you expect after a pick is made.
But yo….. Quinyon at 22 is insane!!!!
Well they did and so did almost every analyst, player, and fan. Hoping so much this dude is as advertised.
I had to whiz so bad for over an hour but I held it because teams kept passing on a cb, figured it was bringing good luck!
Not only did they get the guy they wanted but they also got the best remaining player on the board and did not have to trade up to do it.
6’1/195 and 4.33 40, dominated at Senior Bowl and has an alpha mentality. Arnold has a great track record but this dudes ceiling is higher. Hope he can keep Lamb under 175 yards a game.
from my review of draft rankings via top sources the lowest i found Quinyon Mitchell at was 11th overall. Crazy to see him fall to 22 as the first CB off the board. Let’s fucking go!
Once it hit around pick 17 I was like TRADE UP YOU ASSHOLE ARNOLD AND MITCHELL ARE BOTH THERE. Thanks, Howie.
