[Jeremiah] This game was absolutely dominated by Eagles front four. Good news for the rest of the league – this draft is loaded with DL. Good draft to double up at the position.

Dude, they dominated everywhere while the chiefs only could stop Barkley.
They got the best defense in the league with a top DL and depth they can actually cycle through. They have top coverage with DBs like Slay and Dejean.
Their offense, apart from a top offensive line which is so often overlooked, they got hurts as qb, ajb, Smith and Dotson as wrs who is also a 1st round pick plus goedert who probably is in the mix with the best receiving TEs in the league, but the slice of the cake is too damn small on that offense for him to feast.
That team doesn’t have a hole. The chiefs offense is flawed across the board and their defense was outclassed. The eagles team is the #1 roster in the league. They played themselves to the SB. The chiefs got gifted their spot by corrupt refs.
I definitely think we need to leave with an edge and DL for depth.
Both Jared Ivey and Savion Jones have drawn Denico Autry comps and I would love to have that kind of flexibility again.
A front 4 assembled after they had found Jalen Hurts. If you want to follow the Eagles formula, you get QB first and then you build an insane roster around him.
Mahomes playing behind Levis’ offensive line would look like that a lot more often
The fact that they scored 40+ points helps a lot too I’d say
If they draft Abdul Carter at pick 1 or in a trade back scenario, awesome.
If they draft a QB at pick 1, sign a top free agent edge and draft an edge at the top of the second round, also awesome.
If everyone else is drafting d linemen and edge rushers and we get a steal at tackle in some scenario (NOT AT PICK 1 THOUGH PLEASE NO) to shore up the remaining biggest hole on offense besides QB, awesome.
We’ve got a long way to go before this roster can really compete with anyone, but this will be the second big free agency class and now we have more draft capital. Add in some vets traded and hopefully the ball will get rolling with a tough young talented team. Get a couple of hits out of that and we’re cooking
Please let this be a lesson, just trade back or draft best available. If it’s not Abdul then we have to trade back and get additional picks
Chargers drafted Herbert and have no playoff wins to show for it. The reality of the situation is we need to build the team AND then find a qb to capitalize on it.
