How not to build a team: Eagles draf history

Decided to take a look back

1995: 0 players remain
1996: 1 player (Brian Dawkins, 2nd 2nd round pick)
1997: 0 players remain (11 drafted)
1998: 1 player (Tra Thomas, 1st round. Do not count trotter as he was cut)
1999: 1 player (Donovan Mcnab, 1st round. 10 drafted)
2000: 0 players remain
2001: 1 player (coral Buckholter, 4th round)
2002: 4 players (sheppard, lewis, brown, westbrook - a good draft, no one after round 3 remains)
2003: 2 players (McDougle (sux) 1st round, LJ Smith 2nd round)
2004: 2 players (Andrews round 1, Tapea Round 5)

So 1 solid draft in 10 years (2002).
3 years no players remain
4 years 1 pler remains (2nd round, 1st round, 1st round, 4th round
(backup)
The last 2 years 2 players remain (1st rd, 2nd rd, 1st round, 4th round)

So from 9 of the 10 years you get 8 players, 4 of which were the last 2 years. No player pciked after the 4th round remains from any year.

Way to go team.

And by the way from the 2006 draft we have gotten 0, I mean 0 production withthe most playing time from 5th rounder gaithers on ST and 6th rounder LeJaun as the 5th or 6th DT.

Then again, look at this fraft from 1984 with only the 12 rounder having any type of career:

For eagles fans who thought the 1991 draft was bad, look at the 1992 draft:

dude, look at the 1991 and 1992 drafts for ALL teams. ONE HOFer in both of them combined.....worst two drafts ever possibly

trotter was not cut, he signed a big money contract with washington and the eagles let him go..
your a clown
you say a good draft in 2002 but no one left on the team after the 3rd round picks, you could say this for probably 75 percent of the teasm in the nfl right now

you cant compare from coach to coach. Reid drafted quite well for the eagles in his time there. probably drafted players better than he coached..
how about trent cole, derrick burgess, reggie brown, hank fraley as a FA signee that starter for yrs, i am not doing research just off the top of my head here.. but im sure i can find more...
