Riley Reiff doesn't seem like a Howard Mudd type of O-lineman. He's more of a mauler type. He's not that athletic. I would be surprised if they picked Reiff.

OL is no where near the top of the needs list! Almost any other position makes more sense.

Alot of these mock drafts aren based off of common sense but rather Andy Reids draft history. They need to throw that theory out of the window~

I want either Barron, Cox, Kuechly, or Michael Floyd. Move up a few spots and get one of them. If they draft another OL I'm jumping.

0% chance this happens... as stated above this is not a Mudd lineman, not to mention a reach here. If this is what the Eagles have at 15, they'll trade out and ill be ok with that.

The Philly media and they wonder why Reid is arrogant with them..... The only way they take an O-Lineman is if Kalil or Decastro falls to them.

Memo to Reid/Roseman: please either trade up into top 10 and get dt-Fletcher Cox or lb-Luke Kuechly, or trade down and get an extra 2nd rounder and draft dt-Devon Still and olb-Zach Brown. Good luck! Go Phillies!

I think Domo is only throwing out the most outrageous scenario possible because its impossible to predict what direction the Eagles will go.. Id take every player from 16-22 over an overrated Tackle, that is destined to play guard.

Domo you are a moron! You literally wrote this piece to get a rise out of the readers. "Hmmm how can I get more people to read my horrible column. Oh I know I'll suggest the birds take an OL" THERE IS NO WAY THAT FATTY ARBUCKLE IS GOING TO DO THAT

Huge mistake if this happens. If the previous 14 go as predicted, take Brockers

We are trading down and picking up Cleveland's late first and second round pick so they can pick Tannehill at 15. Coples or Mercilus with fall to us at 22 and with the second round pick we will take Kendall Wright from Baylor.

I'm sure I am wrong but if Reid takes Reiff...why should this draft be any different from any other.

I just threw up reading this Eagles selection, let's hope this mock draft does not pan out!

I think this is not that far off. If they cant get Cox, Kuechly, Barron or even Gilmore then they go OL. It is a much safer bet than gambling once again on a DE or DT although I think a DT would be a safer pick the DE. Im fine with OL over DE if all our top choices are off the board.

I'd rather see Decastro picked before Reiff. At least that way they can erase the memory of last years #1 pick! Unless, of course, Reiff is a Chimney Sweeper from England, 28 yrs old and took up football as a hobby while in the U S. Then I would understand the thinking behind the selection!
