McCoy the steal of the draft?

POSTED: Monday, April 27, 2009, 12:40 AM

The draft grades and evaluations have already started to roll in, and we'll round them up all week here at MTC.

Some quick ones to get us started.

ESPN's Todd McShay named LeSean McCoy his steal of the draft tonight on SportsCenter. McShay will undoubtedly become a favorite of Eagles fans. He also picked the Cowboys when asked which team had the worst draft, adding that he doesn't think Dallas got a single impact player.

Meanwhile, Paul Domowitch of the Daily News gives the Eagles an A-plus.

And Ray Didinger said on TV tonight that the Eagles are one of five teams he awarded with an A.

Again, those are just for starters, but it sounds like national opinion is going to be pretty high on the Eagles' performance this weekend.

    Everybodies all excited about the draft. I like this draft but remember, Andy doesn't play rookies very often. Especially on offense. Deshaun was an exception.

    While I was pleased by the Eagles' performance in this year's draft, I was surprised that they traded up from 21st to 19th in the first round to secure Macklin, rather than taking Pettigrew. Also, before we get too excited even before the first mini camp, let's not lose sight of the fact that Winston Justice and Max Jean-Gilles were rated the second best Offensive Tackle and Guard, respectively, when they came out of college, too.

    I agree with you all, good job on the draft, let's see how it works out, we got a lot of speedy WR's and RB's. Let's MAKE IT HAPPEN!
