The Eagles traded for Tank Bigsby.

The Eagles gave up a 5 and 6. Two years left on his rookie deal.

This was on at the gym this morning with no sound. I always thought he looked like a cartoon cat, or the guy from South Park's Imaginationland, then someone told me about the Shane Gillis comments.

Cam is resentful for not falling on the ball and has become bitter and just says crazy takes to get attention

I guess Shipley broke some ribs

I guess the ship has sailed on him returning anytime soon

Maybe he meant to ask for CB instead of RB? Not too far apart on the keyboard

I gotta admit I don't like the trade. Probably means Dillon is gone because he's Dillon esque. I get those aren't high picks, but why for a RB? Just sign a guy off the practice squad. Bigsby has done very little in this league and if the Jags were willing to trade him, that says something.

Odd doesn’t seem to be a huge need even with Shipley out unless he’s out all season

I like the player, but this has been a weird off season.

They did this to get a returner?

That’s actually interesting. I think KR is an underrated position with the new rules.

Did seem like a lot to give up tho

There’s nothing that grinds my gears more than every reporter saying "to my understanding”. Just say you heard it from an anonymous source and move on.

Omg new and exciting dynamic nfl kickoff coming to life

Is he a good returner?

If they don't need him then use a 5th and a 6th to get a decent backup at guard or CB. Sometimes I think Howie just gets bored and says screw it I need to make a trade.

He F’ing better be.

Howie is not trading away a 5th and 6th just for a guy who can return some kicks. I'm sorry, but that's not adding up. Down to I think 10 picks now. Used to have 13.

Tank Bigsby sounds like the villain in a ‘Rocky’ sequel that never got released because it was too violent.

I suspect they may be underwhelmed with Shipley. Add in that he didn’t make it through one game without getting hurt, and here you have Tank.

Agreed. Loved Bigsby at Auburn. Would probably be great in a shared backfield. The Eagles have Saquon, Dillon and Shipley. We know Shipley injured his ribs, but I'm sure he's OK. Just weird.

I know Howie is itching to get rid of these draft picks, but using 2 late round picks on a backup backup RB seems odd.

Howie should be more worried about OL depth since the best RB in the league couldn't run behind them
