05/09/2006 | Good draft overall for the Eagles, who should do better this year with Donovan McNabb fully recovered from injury and with the Terrell Owens situation well behind them. Picking Winston Justice in the 2nd round was an absolute bargain for this team. Justice's talent is 1st round caliber. However on the negative side, they did not really address their need at wide receiver. They took Jason Avant in the 4th round to address this need, but I don't think he's quick enough for this offense. But overall, I like many of the picks. 1st round selection Brodrick Bunkley is solid and 3rd rounder Chris Gocong has some very good pass rushing skills. On the whole, they had a good draft and will likely be contenders this year.

05/01/2006 | The Eagles had a great draft. Bunkley is a big body who will make an impact on Philly's D-line. Winston Justice was described as a top 15 talent, but fell to round 2 because he has a shaky past. If Justice shows that his prior misconduct was just immaturity, than his selection is a steal.

05/01/2006 | The Eagles addressed all their 2005 shortfalls in this draft. Good picks, McNabb and Westbrook returning healthy, Owens gone -- I thing Philly is back.
