NAKOBE DEAN, Philadelphia Eagle

[PhillyPhreak54]

I think Dickerson becomes a solid player.

But I wasn't comparing ceiling merely saying that taking a flier on injured guys doesn't always fail. Dean is a first round talent.

Even if Dean never ends up playing a snap I wouldn't hold it against Howie. He took a good swing with a third round pick. That said, Howie stated he expects Dean to be on the field for rookie minicamp this week and they don't expect him to miss any time. Dean was very good with blitzing and Reddick had around 23 sacks over the last 2 years, so Gannon could be putting together a pretty exciting D, maybe something we haven't seen since JJ's days.

Woke up this morning loving this pick even more.

commenting about his draft free fall:

(from PFT)

"It's definitely something that will stick with me," Dean said, via EJ Smith of the Philadelphia Inquirer. "It's not my primary or secondary source of motivation — or my tertiary. But it's definitely something that will stick with me throughout my playing career."

The kid actually dropped the word 'tertiary' in a presser, and perfectly.  I doubt most of the reporters in the room could use the word in an article, with a dictionary at hand, and Dean just talks like that.  Bright, well educated dude apparently.

Yeah but does he know what a 3-4 defense is?

[QB Eagles]

You mean the tertiary-quaternary defense?
