This whole draft is so ironic.
How many times has this board discussed who is the best QB from Syracuse - McNabb (who I peg 1) or McCord (who I peg 3 to Donnie Mac)

Now we have a NFL perspective. 
McNabb was drafted second by the Eagles and became a multi year star as a starter.
McCord was drafted in the sixth round by those same Eagles.

McCord was great for us - no ifs, ands or buts. 
And I will cheer for him when and if he plays for the Eagles.
But despite what the fans said - he was not a QB good enough for the first 3 rounds.
He should have gone 4th round - Pitt will rue the day they decided to play the waiting game.
And all this screaming about Shedeur Sanders - Kyle was a better all around player than him.
Your arm and legs are not the only things that are important - what is between the ears is also important.
That is why I envision a long career for Kyle - whether as a starter or a backup.
He will grab everything he can from the experience and leave the locker room in a better shape than when he first arrived.

As for Jalen Hurts, I dont know enough about him to compare to others.
I kind of left the Eagles after McNabb and Reid left.
I follow the Chiefs and Bills a bit but that is it.
I will follow McCord wherever he plays.
I just think barring an injury it wont be with the Eagles.
They will develop him and trade him elsewhere is my guess.  But they will develop him, he wont be forgotten.
