Breaking news: The Eagles considered a move that would cause first-round shockwaves.
According to reports, the Miami Dolphins and the Eagles have discussed their top cornerback.
We couldn’t resist being nosy and snooping around as the NFL Draft drew closer and the Philadelphia Eagles fell silent (as we’re sure you did too). They usually upset apple carts with unexpected deals or signings during such calm times.
Then it took place. They extended Cam Jurgens. Exciting… Yeah, that was exciting, but it wasn’t really surprising. We figured that was coming. More news… Philly declined Jahan Dotson’s fifth-year option. Yawn…
We’re talking, and we really like the name we heard. Darius Slay and Isaiah Rodgers are gone due to free agency, so Philly lost two of the top players on their depth chart at outside corner last season. If they don’t feel they’re set with Kelee Ringo and/or Adoree’ Jackson, they’ll need to find satisfactory replacement options. The NFL Draft began on the first night, and everyone was waiting for news that Philly would trade up in Round 1.
I don’t mean to offend Slay, but may we bring up a possible upgrade? According to rumors, Philadelphia is considering making a trade for Jalen Ramsey. I appreciate the update from Armando Salguero.
Ramsey has reportedly grown tired of his arrangement down in Miami with the Dolphins. Per Salguero’s write-up, Ramsey wants to play “for a winner”. Keep those eyes peeled. Nothing is set in stone yet, but it’s night one of the NFL Draft. We’ve seen Howie Roseman make magic here year in and year out. Might he have a few tricks up his sleeve? We have often seen him add stellar defensive back talent later in the roster-building process. This one could require Philly to part ways with a few draft choices, but if Ramsey is added to Philly’s nest, no one will care much, unless, of course, the Birds lose a first-rounder. That may cause a few issues within the media and fan base.
