  • a steal only if the FO hits on those picks. how many years now have we had many, many picks and maybe 2-3 players are actually still on the squad and actually starting?

    pass on wentz or goff and one becomes montana or elway and all those picks mean doodley squat.

    Or, pass on them, they become David Carr and Joey Harrington, and then it is a good thing.

  • Per a story on Bleacher Report, the following trade is rumored.

    Browns send:
    2016 1st round pick (#2)

    Eagles send:
    2016 1st round pick (#8)
    2016 3rd (#77)
    2016 3rd (#79)
    2017 1st
    2017 3rd

    If true, a steal by the Browns.

    I heard that it would be only for one of the 3rd rounders this year, not both. But both sounds better, yea.

  • Rams did not come to us for a reason. Why are we dealing with #8Philly & not 49'er at #7? Good Lord, get me to draft night please..

    Yea, the reason is that we only had #2, not #1, and the Rams thought someone else could go up to get the guy they wanted at #1 if they traded at #2 for us.

    Again....apparently in the scouting circles of these teams some see a vast difference between these top 2 guys.

  • I like the Wilkerson and picks from the Jets scenario far more than any of the Eagles terms I have read

    Another rumor ........ we are taking Tunsil at 2 and trading Joe Thomas and his contract ......... smokescreens galore everywhere.

    Says Lions and Seahawks fancy trading for Thomas .....believe that when I see it

    If Browns Stay At No. 2, Some GMs Believe They'll Take Laremy Tunsil & Try To Trade Joe Thomas http://bit.ly/1SiqlBU

    I say bull on this Eagles stuff. No one is trading up to #2 until the Rams pick their QB.

    Actively shopping? I say gauging value.

    Sure, but a tentative trade can be worked out pending the Rams taking their pick. Then they would just have to finalize it when the Browns are on the clock.

    but your opinion means shit just as mine. only one of us will be going 'told you so' in 3-4 years. mel kiper, todd mcshay, adam schefter, ron jaworski........you have just as good a shot as calling a 'good' pick as them.

    but i don't like the fact that a QB 'guru' will pass on wentz or goff. tells me these guys like rg3 way too much and that's not a good thing.

  • Grossi: I was told, there is a chance this trade could be done before the draft. #Browns

    Deal is we switch ones and take their first 3rd rounder this year and we get 1 and 3 next year

    I would like their other number 3 too for one of our late 5th rounders if we cannot get both done in the original deal

    Or, IT IS a good thing.....like you said, none of us know for sure. To me, if our QB guru is willing to pass on those guys in favor or RG...it says they are not high on them at all, and they are high on him.

    They are the ones that ultimately get to make the call, not us.

    I agree, unless they include a young, productive current starter like maybe Fletcher Cox? If we tip the scales, tip 'em OUR way!

    Me too, but forget NEXT year's stuff (a total unknown). If we made the trade as outlined above, we'd be screwed for THIS year. I'd rather we screw them than they screw us.

    Mike

  • Rumor from Philly is that a deal has been made and that the Eagles own the pick. No details yet.

    Screwed by picking six picks lower and having two extra day 2 picks? Eagles aren't contending this year -Giants and Skins are the team to beat in the NFC east, and they sure as hell aren't getting a wild card. That pick is top 20.

    Some may remember I proposed going after him last year and with Kelly there, who knows?

    But Pederson (sp?) took Cox off the table (say what?) a couple days ago...

    The Philadelphia Eagles are not going to trade Fletcher Cox. But don't just take my word for it. (That's) what Eagles executive vice president of football operations Howie Roseman had to say in a media session on Monday

  • http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000654501/article/eagles-acquire-no-2-overall-draft-pick-from-browns

    For the second time in less than a week, an NFL team has made a bold move to potentially draft a franchise quarterback.

    The Philadelphia Eagles acquired the No. 2 overall pick of the 2016 NFL Draft in a trade with theCleveland Browns on Wednesday, the Eagles announced. Philadelphia will receive a 2017 fourth-round pick along with the No. 2 pick in exchange for five picks, including this year's and next year's first rounders.

    The deal puts Philadelphia in a prime position to select one of the two quarterbacks that every NFL Media draft analyst has projected as the first players set to be taken off the draft board in Chicago on April 28. Cal's Jared Goff and North Dakota State's Carson Wentz are expected to be the first two selections of the draft.

    For the Eagles, the move to No. 2 gives executive vice president Howie Roseman and new coach Doug Pederson a promising opportunity to mold the direction of the franchise for years to come. Last year's offseason acquisition of Sam Bradford -- a former No. 1 overall pick -- did little to bolster theEagles' offense in 2015. Until Tuesday, the Eagles were poised go with Bradford and former Kansas City Chiefs backup Chase Daniel as their quarterbacks for 2016.

    The Eagles-Browns trade comes six days after the Los Angeles Rams pulled off a blockbuster dealwith the Tennessee Titans to secure the draft's No. 1 overall pick.

    Around The NFL will have more on the trade soon.

  • Trade confirmed, on NFL.com.

  • http://www.clevelandbrowns.com/news/article-5/Browns-Eagles-agree-to-trade-of-1st-round-draft-picks-other-selections/9d0667e4-ed78-4e13-95de-067103f33f6b

    The Browns and Eagles agreed Wednesday to a trade of first-round picks and other selections in the 2016, 2017 and 2018 drafts.

    Cleveland will trade Philadelphia its 2016 first-round selection (No. 2 overall) and a conditional 2017 fourth-round selection for Philadelphia’s 2016 first-round selection (No. 8), third-round selection (No. 77), fourth-round selection (No. 100) along with the Eagles’ 2017 first-round pick and a 2018 second-round pick.

  • So thats:

    Eagles: #2 overall, conditional pick in 2017

    Browns: #8 overall, 3rd round pick, 4th in 2016; First round pick in 2017; 2nd round pick in 2018

  • First, Third, Fourth, 2017 First, 2017 Second.

    All in on RG3
