NGT: Rumor...Eagles looking to trade up big for WR?

Vin_Cuccs : 4/24/2024 10:11 am
Not a lot of detail, but some of the Philadelphia reporters are referencing a rumor/report that Howie Roseman is exploring a big trade-up for a WR.

This is also curious/interesting from the AJ Brown trade front.
I read the other day  
jvm52106 : 4/24/2024 10:12 am : link
that Philly was looking to move up for a CB.
Giants are actually targeting Nabers at #6  
Mike from Ohio : 4/24/2024 10:12 am : link
Which means the Eagles trade up to #5 and select Nabers.

CB makes way more sense. Unless the AJ Brown rumors are true.

True but not as bad when you look at it through the lens of Pick 39 = Brian Burns
I don’t think Chargers would move down from 5 to  
Simms11 : 4/24/2024 10:20 am : link
22! That would be insane, unless they got a Kings ransom, like the remainder of Philly’s picks!

This absolutely makes sense since they traded Diggs and they have nobody outside of Kincaid to throw to. They have to give Allen some weapons. If they can’t move up for Thomas, I think Leggette is a perfect fit in Buff.

True but Dallas has major $$$$ issues with multiple big time players. They will need these picks to fill for stars they will lose or other players they will need to let go when they finalize deals with Lamb, Parsons and or Prescott..

That picture of Gettleman at home with his laptop during the COVID draft should be photshopped to include a kid wearing an eagles sweatshirt standing behind him pretending to vacuum while he peers over DG's shoulder.

Just like when the Giants wanted Devanta Smith and the Eagles traded with the damn Cowboys to jump over the Giants to get him. They do that stuff all the time to the Giants.
I hate that team more than any other in professional sports.

The Giants had purchsed a plane ticket for Smith a week earlier to save a few dollars. Unfortunately, it was non-refundable.

You listed the Eagles picks for Dallas.
IMO, this only helps the Giants  
Shecky : 4/24/2024 12:05 pm : link
All the talks been about the QBs, and teams overpaying to move up in the draft for them.

If that happens, Giants sit pretty with their choice of high end Wars to choose from.

They can take one, or get a ransom from one of these teams desperate to trade up for a wideout.

Or these teams trade up for a wideout ahead of the Giants, and a QB falls. Again, Giants draft him, or let a team offer them a ransom to trade up for the QB.

Three good outcomes. An attempt to get a franchise QB, a dominant WR, or a ransom for a team to move up - and a depleted roster gets an infusion.

the Eagles D fell apart last season  
djm : 4/24/2024 3:05 pm : link
and their OL did too. They have 2 great WRs and a good TE.

I am all for drafting talent first, positional needs second, but They aren't trading up for a WR.
although  
djm : 4/24/2024 3:06 pm : link
maybe I shouldn't think that way because maybe the smart move is to do exactly that. Turn a strength into a dominant unstoppable unit.

Howie Roseman has a flair for the dramatic. Don't know what that conniving cat is up to but he better not interfere with our draft plans. AJ Brown might get the attention of some teams picking high if combined with some extra draft capital.
