Trade Deadline

[Rey]

Sounds like Dolphins WR DeVante Parker could possibly be an Eagle soon. A lot of trade rumors on WR's this year ... both Broncos Emmanuel Sanders and Deymarius Thomas are on the trade market as well as Amari Cooper from the Raiders. Interesting to see how our receivers do against Carolina this week ... it could ultimately determine if we make a move. Would live Emmanuel Sanders as as Eagle.

I think we get Parker, and girls gets Cooper.

 

[Orlando Eagles]

I think we get Parker, and girls gets Cooper.

Just based on what we have seen from Parker and Cooper thus far I would rather it be the other way around.

Parker just never impressed me. Amazing size and talent coming in....but he hasn’t done much. Always a chance that natural skill and size could work here.

But it would rather have Sanders or Cooper....possibly even Thomas for the year or two he has left.

 

[Screamin Eagle]

WR isn't the Eagles biggest need.

 

[mannyz]

WR isn't the Eagles biggest need.

They need a RB thank can carry the load and close out games. They also need a new D Coordinator. Schwartz stinks.

I wonder how much it would take to rescue RB David Johnson from the football hell which is Arizona by the trade deadline?

 

[old duke]

Nothing Howe does will surprise me. A stud, ala DJ makes the most sense, especially when we get Hollins and Wallace back, they are as good or better than Parer, IMO.

 

[Orlando Eagles]

If their asking was a 2nd and Howie has been resistant to this point I get that. If he were to continue to be resistant to this price I don’t think I would be cool with that.

Really though....if the price were a second all along for a proven talent already locked into a cap friendly deal for a while I think Howie would have done it. I could hear the press conference where he says while future draft capital is important this is the kind of player you spend it on.

Based on that thinking I don’t think Arizona is talking back to anyone, unfortunately.

My take; The Eagles need...
CB
S
RB
WR
DT
OT
New DC or scheme or both
Pederson needs to revise himself

 

[Iggloo]

They need more things than they can fix with trades at the deadline frankly. But I think the biggest need is safety, followed by running back.

Totallly agreed on this. My thought this morning is that any secondary help by trade would be most optimal. We cannot fix all gaps with trades, but we can work on the most important parts.

Burn the lines for Peterson, or even Conley.

Oh, is that all? LOL.

Howie: Go get Patrick Peterson, except not a 1st rounder. Give them a 2! We need an all pro CB! Give them Darby, who is still on a rookie contract. Whatever!

[Taddy Mason]

sounds like they just did get him (cooper to cowboys)

 

[eaglesnut]

Patrick Peterson please.

 

[mannyz]

Give a 1st and a 2nd for Patrick Peterson, David Johnson and a 3rd. Problem solved. The DB's get better, and you have a RB that you can count on to close out games.

 

[old duke]

I'd hate to give up a #1, especially we will probably draft in the middle of the 1st round + 2 #2s. If Peterson was in his mid twenties, I'd be OK, but isn't he near 30?

Dude's a true lock-down Corner, but he is also 28 ... so maybe he could be had for less than a 1st

 

[Rey]

We need that 1st rounder next year for a LT ... Peters is done and we need to protect Carson first and foremost.

I'd give up 2 #2's, not this year, but 1 this year and 1 next year.
