Posted April 10, 20223 yr ESPN SUGGESTS TRADE WHERE EAGLES LAND STAR WR DK METCALF By Victor Williams April 9, 2022 After the departure of Russell Wilson, the Seahawks’ roster is in flux as the front office puts together their rebuild plan. Seattle has already parted ways with 10-year veteran Bobby Wagner and their top receivers could be the next pieces auctioned off in a fire sale. According to multiple reports, the Seahawks are taking calls on deep-threat Tyler Lockett while star WR DK Metcalf is rumored to be available — if the right deal presents itself: The Eagles have been linked to Metcalf for much of the offseason — primarily due to Howie Roseman passing on him in favor of J.J. Arcega-Whiteside back in 2019. ESPN recently released their ideal trade scenarios for the 24-year-old receiver, one of which included Metcalf landing in Philadelphia: Philadelphia Eagles Tim McManus’ offer: The Eagles would trade 2022 third- and fifth-round picks (Nos. 83 and 154). Inside the offer: The modest offer here reflects that the Eagles might only be in on Metcalf at a certain risk level. They rated him as a top-15 prospect in the 2019 draft, but the neck injury that ended his final season at Ole Miss kept them from drafting him. They’re not going to give up one of their first-round picks to acquire him. Philadelphia tried to trade for Calvin Ridley earlier this offseason and made a run at Christian Kirk in free agency, and Metcalf would give the franchise the impact receiver it seeks. The Eagles would have a stellar 1-2 punch at receiver with Metcalf and DeVonta Smith, with Quez Watkins and newly acquired Zach Pascal filling the third and fourth roles. Jalen Reagor, a 2020 first-round pick who has 64 catches in two seasons, could be moved to get a much-needed fresh start. Jalen Hurts would have all the targets he could ask for to be properly evaluated in his second season as the full-time starter. Acquiring a player of Metcalf’s stature is more so a pipedream at this point. He’s the exact type of building block teams covet when rebuilding — it’s difficult for me to see the Seahawks moving him even with a contract extension looming. The Jets reportedly offered the #10 overall pick for Metcalf and got turned down, so this offer would likely be dead on arrival anyway. Still, if there’s a chance Metcalf could be had, the Eagles should be sprinting to the phones. https://thelibertyline.com/2022/04/09/espn-tradee-eagles-dk-metcalf/

I mean yeah I'd be ecstatic with that value and I don't want the Eagles to give up premium draft assets to get Metcalf he a third and a fifth? No way.

IF it’s true that Seattle turned down the 10th overall pick from the Jets I don’t see how there is any chance they’d accept a 3rd and a 5th … that just doesn’t make any sense.

It's rather ridiculous. I mean... The Eagles should be interested in Mahomes and they should offer a fifth and a sixth round pick.
April 10, 20223 yr What a stupid article. Seattle turned down the 10th overall pick but the Eagles should offer them a 3rd and 5th Rounder. What?
April 11, 20223 yr Turned down a 10th overall but will take a 3 and 5? Yea, that makes sense 🤦♂️. Trade them Sanders and a pick and tell them JJAW comes with his own umbrella girl.
April 12, 20223 yr Who writes an article about trade SPECULATION on TV? There's an over proliferation of sports websites and not enough material to write about.
April 14, 20223 yr Just an insanely weird construction of an article. Float the idea that the Eagles should offer a third and a fifth. Write about how much Metcalf could improve the team. Then, in the second to last sentence mention that the Seahawks have already turned down number ten overall so this would never happen. wtf?
April 15, 20223 yr Let's just draft a bigger wide receiver in the first 2 days of the draft and end this nonsense.
