Surprised that there hasn't been a trade yet. Wasn't expecting a lot before the draft but at least one.

Okay let me clarify lol. I meant today. A draft day trade prior to the draft.

Actually most teams will now wait until they are on the clock to finalize a trade now, assures them they get the highest value, assures the team trading for that pick, they get the player they covet.

Yea, it's been a quiet, boring afternoon. Not even much slop out there. I scrolled through Dan Sileo and Vin Fosh and even they got nothing.

Vin should shut down his Twitter. He struck out. Unless Mathieu rings the bell in game 7.

My biggest draft surprise will be the Titans moving up for a QB

It seems that the top 15 is weaker than most other drafts, but 25 - 50 is stronger than most.

If we can't go up and get one of the top players, then we should bail out of 15 and 18 and get more picks in that 25 - 50 range.

A small trade up from 15 if their guy is within reach and trade back from 18 to late first to pick up a late 2nd would be ideal

Is there a precedent for this?

I don't recall any this close to the beginning of the draft.

If they trade up to where all the smoke is putting them, I'm not even sure there will be top players. A move up for Stingley when you can just keep assets and trade back for Booth/Elam sounds better to me.

It’s been a wild offseason so was hoping for some wild pre-draft trades to spice things up. But yeah generally they won’t happen until the draft.

I like this kid. Watched Carson Strong highlights and he caught my eye.

Is it pronounced Doobs? If so he’s my new favorite player

Alabama receiver Jameson Williams is among the favorites to end the night with the Eagles. He was a top-30 visit to the team’s NovaCare Complex.

"I’ve been hearing that a lot,” Smith told John Clark of NBCSportsPhiladelphia. "I’ve been keeping in contact with the Eagles. It was good.

"They told me they’d love to see me alongside DeVonta. I think that would be a great explosive offense, just something that no one’s seen before. We complement each other very well so I think that would be good.”

" In the draft class, according to Sports Info Solutions, he ranked No. 1 in catchable-catch rate (96 percent)"

I think Raegor was 57.9%. Which make me wonder why we picked him in the first place.

Ok, this is tight.

Icy drip

I’m only just watching his highlights for the first time because of that article, and he kinda moves like Moss. I know he’s only 6’2, but just the mannerisms and the way he shifts during breaks. plus virtually everything Bryce young is throwing to him is under thrown, implying we’re not see the top speed

Eagles better not be only trying to move up for a CB and if that CB goes earlier than expected just stand pat. Multiple players they could move up for who could help. I hope they don't think they're settled at pass rush with Reddick.

I'm not as sold on Johnson as others. That's simply because of late rise.

A move up for Stingley would be a great way to start the draft off bad

Trading up from 15 and then trading down from 18 to KC would be probably the best scenario we could have. Obviously player dependent.
