If We Are Trading Down, Which Team Can We Deal With?


Chesapeake Fan

Recommended Posts

Yesterday, I proposed a trade-up for Justin Blackmon with Stewart as bait.

Today, let's discuss the possibility of trading down with another team and keeping Stewart.

If we do this, I would LOVE to pick up Michael Brockers from LSU.

He is young (twenty years old) ,naturally big (6'5",320+ lbs), stout against the run, and he has plenty of game tape to prove that he is worthy of the pick.

Philly needs a LT, and they are at 15 pick with 2 -2nd round picks. I can see a the following trade happen.

Philly gets our 1st round pick (9th pick) and we get their 1st round pick (15th pick) and their 2nd -2nd round pick(51st pick).

This can be our selections with the offense picking up a weapon.

1ST: TRADE DOWN DT BROCKERS (LSU)

2ND: ORIG. PICK CB ROBINSON (UCF)

2ND: EXTRA PICK OLB DAVID (NEB)

4TH: ORIG. PICK WO McNUTT (IOWA)

people need to realize that a team will only trade up for a pick if they think a team in front of them will grab their player. if the eagles don't consider us likely to draft an offensive lineman, they won't just trade up with us.

C'mon guys! The trade up one was kinda dumb, but this scenario is very plausible at least. I for one would love an extra 2nd and in this draft, 15 would still yield an impact player, especially since some of the people we've been bringing in are not regarded as top ten picks. I'd be happier with Brockers at 15 with an extra pick than just taking him at 9.

Zod said that the new layout was to deal with the new fans we'll be getting on our board. Instead of being jerks to all newcomers let's welcome them in. With Cam now on our team, our fanbase will undoubtedly grow, and we should embrace the change.

I could see the Eagles trading up from 15 to 9 to get Reiff. They need an OT, especially for the kind of game VIck plays. That would be an awesome scenerio for us. We wouldn't fall back too far and would probally pick up an extra 2nd rounder or 3rd round pick.

    • Have to stop making everything about BY. They will and have been bringing in players to improve the TEAM, not just Bryce Young. Which is something they should have done BEFORE bringing in a rookie QB. Even Metchie is a generally good pickup at a position of need. He just happens to have played with BY in college. And that doesn't hurt his chances or the team's. Morgan just addressed the biggest areas of need on the team via free agency so they won't be reaching for a position of need in the draft. He's legit picking the best player available for the TEAM in the draft. The o-line was in shambles in 2023. He addressed it in 2024. The d-line was in shambles in 2024. He addressed it in 2025. The pass rush and linebackers were in shambles in 2025. He's addressed it in 2026. Unfortunately good young WRs don't hit the FA market, so can't just throw money at them. You have to draft them. I wonder what some would be saying if they'd spent the amount of cap on the offense that they spent on the defense in 2025 and 2026 - and then used both first round draft picks on defense. Would that have been better in your eyes? No. You would be complaining that the defense is too young to compete and more vets weren't brought in because they're trying to prop up BY. This team should be talented enough now to make some noise in the South. If BY is actually holding them back, then QB will be addressed in 2027. They benched him 2 games into their tenure and you think they're tied to his success. No. That doesn't compute. They're tied to the team's success. BY could throw for 5000 yards and if they're 4 - 13, head's will roll.  TLDR: Their decisions aren't driven by making BY look good. They're trying to improve the team and win games. Period. 
    • I still firmly believe that Tepper still has his mandate of make Bryce work or get fired and because of that, it doesn't matter how badly he does... He'll get a long term deal in the 40-50m range and set back this franchise for a decade. Then the Teppers will have another QB infatuation and maybe they get it right then.
