  1. I personally think J.Carter is a huge risk!! I hope it works out. I like Carter way more thrn drafting an olinemen ! Or edge . I wanted robinson! I hate ATL now. Lol. Oh well. Carter and edge rusher is a very solid 1st round. I kind of wanted branch at 30 though .

  2. J.Carter raced on city streets that lead to two deaths that is horrible, and is a huge deal, this is a risky pick. Eagles drafted him, these questions need to be asked and Eagles opened a bad can of worms drafting Carter, im sorry. This also shows they aren't haply with Jordan Davis, I don't care Davis is used as a true NT. Davis was a huge disappointment last year.

  3. Between outstanding player, coach and office leadership carter should be just fine.
    I have faith Big Dom did his homework

    You didn’t have to shit on his big night either

  4. Winning the draft doesn’t mean squat. It doesn’t win you games in the regular season or the Super Bowl, if you’re good or lucky enough … injuries were minimal last year … to get there. It’s just a peek into the future, two to three years down the line. And in that respect, this was a very good haul … so far … with the drafting of Jalen Carter and Nolan Smith. Kudo’s to Howie, Laurie, Nick and the whole Eagles organization. There was no gambling, like Howie did in the past, only to fail spectacularly … Danny Watkins anyone? [bangs head on wall]. They listened to their highly regarded scouting department and Howie maneuvered … trades and whatnot … the franchise in such a way, to make all of this possible. Go Birds!!!

  5. He was racing a non race car on a street city! It's 1000% not safe, the car and street isn't built for that. Race on a race track which is built for racing. This pick is a huge risk because of the player!! Two people died because of both cars that were racing. If both people do not make this awful choice , everyone is alive today

  6. Rueben starting to come off as a jerk. The kid lost two friends doing something stupid that most young people do stupidly. Damn everyone make mistakes dnt beat the kid up prolly got ptsd knowing his two friends died in front of him. And Reuben frank is rubbed the wrong way about how the kid responded to a question wtf. If this kid fails here the media will play a major factor. Damn Philly media deserves all the negative comments they get they are super critical and invasive in people personal lives. I bet u can find some skeletons in all they closets if u had the time too

  7. Would point out that the risk is relative to who else was available. Robinson wasn't available anyway. Given the Eagles philosophy they probably would have taken Carter even if Robinson was available. There isn't anyone available at 9/10 that could even compare to Carter.

  8. Roob, you could have let the kid enjoy draft day. There are more appropriate times.

  9. Not gonna lie, y’all might’ve just lost a fan. Roob, even asking him about that on a night when he’s supposed to be celebrated was a complete embarrassment. But what’s more embarrassing is how you’re acting after. What is the kid supposed to say ? He lost two friends doing something stupid. Newsflash : KIDS DO STUPID SHIT 🤦🏾‍♂️. To bring that up tonight of all nights is invasive, heartless and shows a complete lack of empathy. And to say “he didn’t handle it well” is crazy. How tf would you handle being asked about the biggest mistake of your life on what’s supposed to be the biggest night of your life by the people who will basically be soon writing the story of your life ? It can be overwhelming. Not your best moment Roob. Not by a long shot.

  10. Everybody is the moral police. He was charged with a traffic violation. It wasn’t a malicious act. Ppl are responsible for themselves. Of course he learned his lesson. You think he’s willing to throw his career away?

  11. Not saying what Carter did wasn't wrong but 85 percent of kids that get a car races that car even if it's there mom or dad's car .. I get that people died but they were in another car and they chose to race too . Not all on Carter. So come on you guys are acting like the kid was drunk and killed them kids himself. Leave the kid alone, just cuz you guys were nerds and didn't do them kinds of things don't mean u bash him . Do u know how many people race cars these days .

  12. enough linemen. we need safety, linebacker, and running back. carter does not owe you an explanation. case closed.

  13. Roob is a j/o for this. Drag racing is like medium bad. Unless you think he secretly wanted there to be a car crash.

  14. ALL the IDIOTS showing themselves in the comments. Nobody holds anybody accountable for their actions then wonder why thing’s are the way they are

  15. Seems like Reuben has his mind made up about JCarter..He probally still processing what happened. Everyone deals with Trauma differently

  16. Wow! I think Jalen Cater shouldn't be answering any questions until he's mentally and emotionally prepared to handle Philly media. We may run the risk of having another Ben Simmons situation.

  17. Bunch of assholes trying to pummel this kid cause he raced a car. Give me a fucking break. He raced a car… omg. You want him to get down on his knees and beg forgiveness. Whoever asked him that question is a pure asshole.

  18. Jalen Carter doesn't owe ruben's "fat behind" an explanation!!! No one cares what rubs him the wrong way, that's why Howie and Nick shut ruben down at the press conference. Jalen is a kid and he did something dumb, who hasn't at that age? He doesn't have to satisfy these overweight reporters by answering their disrespectful questions.

  19. how do you know what the comp picks will be? they are determined by salary, playing time and post season honors. we could have higher picks than 5th rounders. Hargrave already worth a 3. sanders at least a four. post season will determine what level of picks we get not now.

  20. All podcast he looked like he knew he fucked up with his questioning….poor form

  21. Shoutout to Howie and coach Nick for checking Rueben immediately and putting him in his place during the press conference

  22. Jalen Carter was the RIGHT move at 9. DT was a position of need and on tape Carter was the clear cut best player in the draft. I'd rather Howie miss on this pick then for him to overthink it like he did when he drafted Reagor over Jefferson. I feel like these last two drafts Howie has really learned from his mistakes. Sure, your're not going to hit on all your draft picks but it's important to hit on one's especially in the first one. Taking the wrong guy could really set back an organization.

  23. in all seriousness tho, if u r about $millions the rest of ur life dont drag dont do sH*it. chill n Netflix and if u cant do that c therepist. most these top prospects have no perception of real life bc no1 puts them in there place

  24. Roob, I enjoy yours and Zangaro’s podcast but that accountability question was out of line.
