I love how these so called "insiders" have just been repeating the same exact thing about AJ Brown for several days now. "The Eagles are willing to trade AJ Brown but their asking price is really high. We'll see if a team is willing to meet their asking price. He might get traded, he might not."

I saw an interesting video on Youtube tonight from Hail Mary Sports and it had the Eagles trading back in the first round. We traded with the Broncos ( so they could jump ahead of Buffalo and San Francisco )

The Eagles receive - picks 30, 94 and a 2027 4th round pick.

The Broncos select KC Conception

at pick 30 the Eagles select CB Chris Johnson from San Deigo State ( only because there werent any decent tackles left in this scenario )

I know the video is just a guy giving his viewpoints on another mock draft but I thought it was something different.

The asking price has to be high to eat that much cap, especially since they won't have a replacement this year unless they blow a high pick who still won't be as good as him. It's not like they can eat that cap and sign a FA either. Honestly, I hope they keep him and see what he looks like in the new offense.

Something different and something horrible. They can't keep investing high picks in the defense. It's time to start replenishing the offense with young talent along the OL, at TE, and possibly WR as well.

Good point just brought up on Birds Huddle. The Chiefs now own picks 9, 29, and 40 and Rashee Rice is in trouble yet again and could be facing a suspension. The Chiefs could be a player in a potential AJ Brown trade using pick 29 OR 40 as the main trade chip.

The media will just be waiting for him to make a mistake, drop a ball, do something that they don't understand or agree with, and whamo, they will jump on him and he will be shredded. The guy can't win. And if he is playing flawless then they'll just conjure something up like they did before. It feels like he will never get ahead here ever again which is a damn shame.

Poor AJ Brown, what a victim he is.

They’ve been trying to trade AJ for 2 years now. This is the excuse they’ll use when he isn’t dealt. Then the eagles will let him go next year and everyone will act like they were right all along

Stone cold mortal lock AJ BROWN ISNT being traded to rams

Do people still believe the Eagles will trade him pre June 1st?

Chiefs are more likely to use that #29 pick to move up from #9 to 5 or 6 to get the best player on their draft board. If Andy believes that to be Carnell Tate or Jeremyiah Love then they’re much better situated now to get that done.

They don't need a draft pick to be as good as AJ Brown, smitty will be WR1. They need a competent 2 and a decent TE. They’re not trading him but they don't need to replace AJ Brown (smitty will do that), they need to replace Smitty's position (also doesnt need to be at smitty's talent level, because not many are). Is it an overall downgrade? Sure. Does it matter? Not with this offense, I don't believe we're going to see some monster shift this year. Not as long as sirianni is around.

Honestly would not hate Smitty, DJ Moore and a rookie slot (or darius cooper?). Still need a solid TE but that's a solid top 2 and depending on cooper/rookie performance could be a top 15 group

Is Will Dissly cooked? Good blocking TE in his prime, who I imagine is cheap. Folks seem to like Kolar (sp?) also in that role.

Daylen Everett is a tall fast Georgia CB which may sound scary. But he is used a bit like DeJean it seems. He is inside and outside. And seems to actually have some IQ for the game sorting through responsibilities in coverage. So, maybe not Ringo.

Still want a guy who actually catches the ball. But I wouldnt actually hate the pick if we ended up with him.

Wonder why we have heard nothing about this WR who is probably the best tackle breaker of all the WRs in this draft. Even better than Kendrick Law possibly.

6'`1'' 222, hes looks like AJ Brown out there.

That's what they said about Treylon Burks.

There was a stretch where Howie used to look for clones to draft (JJAW was supposed to be the next Jeffery, Reagor was supposed to be the next DJax, Pumphrey, the next Sproles). I'm glad he got better after those failures.

"They" were clearly wrong. I never thought Burks looked like an NFL player.

He was waived with a failed physical designation or something like that. He’s probably cooked. If not, he’d be a great post-draft signing.

His career was a combination of bad team to be drafted on, bad injury luck and him being a bit of a nutter. A what if player
