NFL.com<\/a>, the Eagles would do just that. In his pitch, the Eagles would trade up with the Minnesota Vikings, moving from No. 23 to No. 18 overall. Philadelphia would receive picks Nos. 18, 82, and 196, while Minnesota would land picks No. 23 and No. 54.<\/p>\nAdvertisement<\/p>\n
\u201cFor Philadelphia, this trade-up suggestion doesn’t come with one specific target. Maybe the Eagles want a pass rusher. Perhaps a pass catcher, with rumors that they’ll trade A.J. Brown wafting in the wind. How about Lane Johnson’s eventual replacement at right tackle? There’s also a starting safety job open.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis would be more about opportunity for Howie Roseman, the ultimate opportunist on draft day. No GM has appeared as flexible during live draft action, ready to swing a blockbuster (e.g., giving the No. 18 overall pick to Tennessee in exchange for Brown in 2022) or make shorter jumps (going from No. 12 to No. 10 for DeVonta Smith in 2021, going from No. 10 to No. 9 for Jalen Carter in 2023) to get their guy. If a top-10 player on the Eagles’ board slips into the teens, watch out. It has been a quieter offseason so far, and you just know Roseman is itching to strike. Philly has the draft capital and the motivation to move up.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Eagles have multiple areas they could address. To me, edge rusher makes sense, but I also don\u2019t hate the idea of taking a tight end if one is there.<\/p>\n
A move from No. 23 to No. 18 would be to go get someone the Eagles want. No matter the position, this would be about a team that wants a certain player and isn\u2019t willing to lose him due to another team taking them right before they do.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Philadelphia Eagles have shown they\u2019re willing to make a blockbuster trade or two during the NFL Draft…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":852664,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2068],"tags":[8694,7104,5640,25,7,1641,476,5545,259,6,242,109,2476,526,425,8238],"class_list":{"0":"post-852663","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-philadelphia-eagles","8":"tag-a-j-brown","9":"tag-blockbuster-trade","10":"tag-devonta-smith","11":"tag-eagles","12":"tag-football","13":"tag-howie-roseman","14":"tag-jalen-carter","15":"tag-lane-johnson","16":"tag-minnesota-vikings","17":"tag-nfl","18":"tag-philadelphia","19":"tag-philadelphia-eagles","20":"tag-philadelphiaeagles","21":"tag-tennessee","22":"tag-the-eagles","23":"tag-the-nfl-draft"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/116344554023394728","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/852663","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=852663"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/852663\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/852664"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=852663"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=852663"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=852663"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
