Philadelphia Inquirer's Jeff McLane reports the Eagles are "getting closer to trading" Carson Wentz.​

This confirms reports from NFL Network and ESPN. Teams are making "aggressive offers" to the Eagles currently, and Wentz "wants to move on" from the organization that opted to draft his eventual replacement (Jalen Hurts) instead of adding more help in last year's draft. Philly will be taking on $33.8 million in dead money by trading him, but the relationship may be too fractured to keep him inside the building. The asking price is what's delaying a trade right now. McLane believes GM Howie Roseman is "probably" searching for multiple first-round picks after seeing what Matthew Stafford was traded for. It's unclear how many teams would be willing to give up even one first-round pick after Wentz finished 31st out of 32 quarterbacks in passing EPA per dropback, but the Colts and Bears are potential suitors. Both teams were involved in Stafford talks and currently sit outside of rookie quarterback striking distance.
a couple of 1st round picks for a back up QB on a 4-11-1 team? Who could be that stupid?

The Colts make the most sense, but the Bears are really dumb and might outbid them.

Wentz is the 4th QB to lead the League in INT's AND sacks in a season.

Nagy is desperate to save his job and is over Trubs.....fancies himself as a QB whisperer.
