Here are the terms of the deal:

Eagles get: A sixth-round pick in 2022

Colts get: Pryor and a seventh-round pick in 2022

Getting back the 6th rounder they gave up for Minshew.  Fully stocked with draft picks for '22, that's for sure.

Great trade for a guy that wasn't going to make the team anyway.

Wtf are they thinking? It will be such a Philly thing if Pryor ends up having to get a start in Indy, and it results in Wentz getting hurt again. Bye bye 1st round pick. 

[EazyEaglez]

My Lord they took Pryor!?! They’re trying to kill Wentz.

Reich knows Pryor.  He must believe that he can bring out the best in him, or otherwise like what he brings to the team behind the scenes.  One thing is for sure, the Colts have a good OL and Pryor is only playing if someone goes down.

Pryor should never play, but why would Reich know anything about Pryor? He was taken in 2018.

Hey, we got something for him!

Only in Philly would we downgrade from a 1st to a 2nd in order to upgrade from a 7th to a 6th.

Howie being Howie. 🤦🏾‍♂️

[EricAllenPick6]

Also, this was not the OL trade I was expecting. When / where is Andrew Dillard going?

[Ajxxx]

Wait what? Someone traded for pryor hahahahhaha. Rather put a garbage bin out there as it would atleast block something running straight into it. Turnstile couldn't even do that hahahaha

It depends on whether the Eagles can get a decent return for him.  Better to sit on your hands and wait until somebody goes down before dealing him.

No - it's a genius move. Reich is going to tell Wentz that unless he gets vaccinated, he's going to start Matt Pryor and call slow developing downfield plays to Zach Pascal.

Win win.

I want Howie fired but he did an excellent job with this

[NOTW]

Howie got a little something instead of just cutting a guy, so there's that.

[PoconoDon]

Howie made the freaking mess, Howie cleaned up his mess. No kudos. No reward. Shouldn't have made the mess in the first place.

I keep saying Howie is like the government:  the cause of the problem, then tells you he's the only one who can fix the problem.

Spot on. I mean look this is a good trade no doubt but ultimately he's cleaning up a mess of a roster that he created.

Well ... The Jets and Patriots saw him in practice ... so not there.

Dealmaker Howie is the best Howie.

Yours is a great analogy. It is exactly how he behaves.

He never coached Pryor. Pryor was drafted in 2018 Reich was gone in 2017.

Maybe that's why he keeps his job. Cause he keeps messing it up so Lurie has no choice but to keep him to fix it. Worked the last time. Lol
