Eagles in the NFL Thread

[O.M.T. GATA]

Forgive me if there is already a thread similar to this but I couldn't find one. Figured it would be nice to have one thread dedicated to talking about how these guys are performing in the league. Anybody watch the preseason game last night? How did Ironhead look out there?

I think it's better for it to have it's own thread even though there was a lot of discussion in the thread that GSU08 mentioned above, I wonder if the mods or someone could add 2017 to this thread title.

As for Ironhead, he had 4-5 tackles and looked pretty good in his first game as a Safety as opposed to the SS/LB hybrid he played here. He did give up a touchdown to a TE that had almost a foot height advantage on him, but he was right in the guys hip pocket, so his coverage was ok, he just wasn't able to overcome the height mismatch to break up the pass.

the way I saw that play, Ironhead was a step slow in arriving, if he got there sooner he might have been able to make a play. For his first NFL game at a new position I thought he looked pretty good.

Didn't he get some snaps at OLB?

Maybe, Im not sure if OLB or safety edging up to the line?

Georgia Southern leads the Sun Belt in players in the NFL. That 7 number will likely drop, as it includes BJ Johnson who is on the 49ers IR. Once he's off, chances are he gets cut.

Georgia Southern - 7
Appalachian State - 6
Arkansas State - 5
Coastal Carolina - 5
Idaho - 5
Troy - 4
Georgia State - 3
New Mexico St - 3
Texas State - 3
Louisiana - 2
South Alabama - 2
UL-Monroe - 1

Make that 6 Eagles on NFL rosters. Antwione Williams was cut by the Lions last weekend, WTH? I did not see that one coming. I hope he gets picked up.

That's a shocker. just a week or so ago he was named the starter.
