Schefter: Eagles acquire WR Marquise Goodwin

[Jenkins27]

Never liked him. All his has is speed. No route running, no hands, no nothing. 29-30 year old waste of a roster spot. 

Howie is killing it this draft week.

If that's all we gave up, then so be it.

It is!

Our 6th is the Falcons(11th ovr) So thats a big jump. NFL Tracker does not confirm it yet though. 

Don;t like this trade at all. 

[Mike030270]

As I said in the blog this feels like an ok here Eagles fans now shut up kind of trade

[DeathByEagle]

I would have rather gave up a 5th for Bredia and used him at WR over Goodwin. 

[Uscg-green]

for a 6th? Fine with it. 

Niners got Trent Williams? For that cheap? Dam it I wanted him. No way the foreskins would have traded to us though.

Howie is out of control. How old is this guy? 

[PhillyPhreak24]

Great. A 29 year old receiver coming off a 12 catch season.

I think he's just older than me, so 44 I think.

 

Oops, just realized you meant Goodwin, and not Howie.

12 catches is more than what arthegawhiteside gave us last year so we’re moving in the right direction 

[jsdarkstar]

Looks like It's official.

He played in 11 games in 2018 and just 9 in 2019 before he landed on IR thanks a chronic knee injury. 

[HowiesBroman]

I mean it's a 6th for a tryout for a speedy WR with nfl experience. He's not guaranteed a roster spot but he might be better than WR we find in the draft at this point.  Likely a competition between Hightower/Goodwin/x?/x? for WR5 / WR6 at least until Alshon is ready to go.

[UK_EaglesFan89]

He's still really good when he's healthy and we don't need him to be a starter...

[EagleJoe8]

I'm ok with this. I was ok with drafting 3 receivers, but I was a bit more in favor of drafting two and bringing in a vet.

[thedanone82]

People complaining over 20 spots in the 6th round?

[NOTW]

This is fine for just swapping 6th round picks.

He's old and injury prone, will fit right in on IR with Jackson and Jeffrey.  But I get it, low risk and they're all about that speed this year.

Agreed. He's a good player when healthy. To give us extra speed and a bit of depth there it's really a no brainer. A swap of 6ths? Done.

We could have had a camp body with 25% chance at making the roster instead of a camp body with 15% chance though!  

 

[Wormlegs]

another body to compete for a roster spot. Maybe he is a 350-400 yds kinds of guy?
