🚨BREAKING: Philadelphia Eagles Trade For All-Pro CB Jaire Alexander | Eagles News & Reaction

[Music] Breaking news as we have a rare Saturday trade in the National Football League. Welcome in the Philadelphia Eagles now. My name is Chase Senior and as always, no matter where you are, how you’re tuned in, thank you so much for making today’s show a part of your day and I hope all of the real ones out there having a fantastic weekend. Wow. I talked about this on the show the other night, but I didn’t see it actually happening. The other night, I was talking about how Roseman is supposedly infatuated with the idea of trading for Miles Garrett. He could give up three first round picks for one of the best defensive players in the history of the NFL, one of the top defensive players in the league right now. And in that show, I mentioned how the Baltimore Ravens and Gy Alexander could be parting ways soon because he was a healthy scratch going into Thursday Night Football against the Miami Dolphins. And I talked about an option for Howie Roseman at corner being Gyier Alexander, but it wasn’t a move that I would have explored and it’s not a move that I thought that the Eagles are going to make. But here are the trade details here. The Eagles are trading for Ravens quarterback Gyier Alexander, who the Eagles showed a lot of interest in during the offseason. He was a big topic on this show. The Eagles get him and a 2027 seventh round pick from the Ravens in exchange for a 2026 sixround pick. So, the Eagles are giving up that sixth round pick in 2026 with the Tank Bsby trade. They also gave up a couple of late round picks. But look, Howie Roseman is going to exhaust every avenue to try to improve his football team. Outside corner has been a little bit of an issue for the Eagles. This is the second trade that he’s made this week at corner. Slot corner Michael Carter. Perimeter corner Gyier Alexander. and how he has said, “We love our draft picks, but we will give them up if that means that we can improve our team.” And the Eagles are still locked and loaded with a lot of draft capital going into the future. Other roster moves here for the birds, they placed safety Marcus EPS and edge rusher Aziz Ojelari on injured reserve. Now, before we continue to dive into this, this is why you subscribe to the channel. I’m at home. I was going on a walk and been watching college football all day. Just wanted to get some fresh air, some sunlight, do some grounding. The real ones know. And then I got the notification. Howie Roseman making another move. Not for a pass rusher, but for another corner. Regardless of where I am, what I’m doing. We talk Eagles every single day, year round. And I always had the bird gang covered here on the show. Lockas subscribed. What’s funny about this trade, too, is that Gyar Alexander has an opportunity to make his Eagles debut against his former team in the Green Bay Packers. once the Eagles come out of the buy and play the Packers on Monday Night Football in week 10. And that is going to be a massive game. Currently, the Packers are the number one seed in the NFC, even though the Eagles have more wins than the Green Bay Packers. The Eagles are the two seed. This is a game that could very well determine homefield advantage in the NFC and the number one seed in the conference come playoff time. And at the very least, Gy Alexander in this game potentially for a playoff rematch could give this Eagles defense some intel on an NFC power because prior to this year, he had spent his entire career with Green Bay. Signed with the Ravens this off season, one-year contract worth like $4 million, potentially up to $6 million, and he was teammates at Louisville with Lamar Jackson. And so that relationship is still really strong. And so Gy Alexander went to Baltimore. Obviously for as long as I’ve been following football, they’ve always had really stout, good defenses. They’ve done a great job of maximizing and developing corners. But this was a rare move for Baltimore on defense where it didn’t really work out. And Gy Alexander only played in two games for Baltimore this year. had 43 coverage snaps, allowed five catches on five targets for 116 yards. And a reason why I was never in love with the Eagles making this trade is that one, he hasn’t played well this season. Two, he’s been injured a lot throughout his career. Now, I understand there’s not a lot of risk here. You’re not paying him a lot. You didn’t give up a lot. But for a player who’s playing poorly and hurt a lot, how much is he going to be able to help you this season? And what does this mean for Chicorian Bennett who should be coming back after the bye-week? Is he dangled in a trade? Could the Eagles look to trade Achily Ringo and Adori Jackson? Could they cut an Adori Jackson? All those are possibilities. What does this mean for the Eagles trade of Michael Carter? Is he just going to be a backup slot corner because Cooper De is so elite there? Do the Eagles still have plans to use Deene on the outside? Is this bringing in a player in Gy Alexander who’s been a former AllPro who gives you more depth at the corner spot? Wouldn’t surprise me if the Eagles tried to dangle a corner in a trade on top of draft picks to maybe trade for a pass rusher. I think those are all things to keep an eye out for. As far as Alexander’s resume, it really speaks for itself. He’s been an elite player in this league for a very long time up until somewhat recently when he’s been hurt a lot. First round pick, 18th overall out of Louisville in the 2018 NFL draft. And right away comes in as a rookie for Green Bay and has an interception, 11 pass breakups, and gave Green Bay lock down corner play on the outside. That came in 13 games, 11 starts. Year two, 16 games, 16 starts. That was still when the NFL was only playing 16 games. He had 17 pass breakups that year. And let’s see, two interceptions. Year three, 15 games, one pick, 13 pass breakups, and a force fumble. That year, he was a Pro Bowler and a second team all pro. This is where the injury started to happen for him. 2021. This is year four. Only played in four games with four starts. Had a pick. Comes back in 2022. Plays in 16 games with 16 starts. Had five interceptions that year. 14 PBUs. Was once again a Pro Bowler and a second team allpro. So, two times in three years, he was a second team allpro and a Pro Bowler. Twice in his first four years, Pro Bowler and a second team allpro. But he was hurt a lot in 2021. Only played those four games. 2023 played seven games. 2024 played seven games. 2025 has only played in two games. So what do the Eagles expect from him? A veteran whose best days probably behind him at the best. You’re probably getting a depth piece you can maybe rely on and maybe he can find something. I mean, he’s going to be a free agent after this season, but maybe he can be that veteran presence in a young corner room that the Eagles have kind of missed without Darius Slay, without Isaiah Rogers. The resume impressive. What he’s done of late, not that great as far as missing a lot of time and not playing that well, especially this year with Baltimore. This is notable as well, and I think this did go into the Eagles decision to make this trade. Eagles defensive back’s coach Christian Parker, who Vic Fangio loves, who I think is going to be an elite defensive coordinator before we know it, and has done a great job in coaching up and developing Quinan Mitchell and Cooper Deim. He’s well acquainted with Gyier Alexander from his stint as the Green Bay Packers defensive defensive quality control coach from 2019 through 2020. So look, maybe Gyier struggled with Baltimore because it’s a completely new scheme. That defense prior to Thursday had also been pretty bad. Now he has familiarity with Christian Parker, Jeff Hafley, Vic Fangio. I wouldn’t say they run the same defensive system, but they ask their corner sometimes to do the same types of things as far as man, zone, and assignments. But I just didn’t see this trade coming. It’s a very surprising one for me. More to get to here in just a moment. Let’s get to our sponsor though. This episode of Philadelphia Eagles now brought to you by Prize Picks.

Philadelphia acquiring Gy Alexander 2027 7th round pick from the Ravens in exchange for a 2026 sixth round pick. Marcus Eps Azizo Gelari on injured reserve. You put another edge on IR. you do get back Nolan Smith and Brandon Graham. Look, wouldn’t surprise me if the Eagles and Howie Roseman make a move for a pass rusher. That could be determined by what happens tomorrow on Sunday. Eagles have their buy. They’ll be monitoring teams who are in a spot where they don’t know yet if they’re going to buy, if they’re going to sell. If some of these teams with some really good pass rushers lose on Sunday and some of these players become expendable, whether it be Trey Hendrickson of the Bengals, Germaine Johnson, Jaylen Phillips, who according to everybody’s favorite reporter Diana Rousini, who finally stopped on the AJ Brown reporting, uh she reported that the Eagles have shown interest in Germaine Johnson and Jaylen Phillips. Whether it be a Bradley Chub, I think the Eagles aren’t done. I I just think they want to wait to see what dominoes fall going into Tuesday’s NFL trade deadline. And I’ll be live all day on Philadelphia Eagles now. So, be sure to join us. Let’s see. The Eagles cornerback room now. Quinan Mitchell, Cooper Deene, Gyar Alexander, Jakoran Bennett, Mac Mc Williams, Ador, uh, Adori Jackson, Keely Ringo, Michael Carter II. I mean, this is why I said earlier as we’re reacting to this in real time, obviously almost 6 pm Eastern, you could trade a corner, whether it be Adori Jackson, whether it be Keely Ringo. I know the popular talking point is always, hey, move this player to safety. Could the Eagles put Michael Carter at safety? He’s played on the inside. Maybe in some personnel packages, depending on the scheme, depending on the play call, depending on the personnel for defense and offense, you could put him there. I will say he’s a really good run defender. So, if you want to put him in the box, I think that you can do that. He does have 4-3 speed. He runs really well and sometimes that’s why safeties convert to safety because they don’t run well. That could be a possibility as well as we spitball here. Jeremy Fowler also saying Eagles might not might not be done on the trade front. The trade is viewed as adding competition and depth to the defensive back room from Tim McManis. I saw Zack Burman say something I thought. Yeah. Alexander played two games this year, was buried on the depth chart. Gives him a chance to play, huh? Yeah. Just surprised by it. But look, Howie Roseman’s not only going to target stars, he’s going to try to build depth with the football team because he knows it makes Eagles better. So, that is the breaking news on a Saturday afternoon going into the evening. Good college football slate to round out the day. Game seven of the World Series between the Dodgers and the Blue Jays. What a crazy ending to game six last night. I’ll be watching college football. I’ll be watching game seven of the World Series. No watch party tomorrow obviously because the Eagles are on that buy. Put out a show a little bit earlier. mailbag segment content to come tomorrow because the content never stops. Live on Eagles now on Tuesday for the NFL trade deadline. Probably going to put out a preview on Monday. Eagles Packers. It’s going to be a huge one. Can’t wait for it. All right, this is Philadelphia Eagles now. Don’t forget to hit that subscribe button.
