Twitter: Eagles trading Ertz to AZ

[TwoCentPlain]

CB Gowan was a 6th round pick. Doesn’t appear he has any stats for this year. Guess he has yet to play. People said he was riding up on draft charts but he ended up going in the 6th round.

I think the remaining portion of Ertz’s salary is about $3M.

AZ lost for the year their TE Williams to injury last game. I guess the Cards had no depth at TE.

Had McKeon been on the PS, AZ would have poached him instead of trading in my opinion.

Was a big fan of Gowan at UCF. Now I get to hate him lol

Did Shefter have that properly edited before posting?

Fletcher Cox will be worth some very serious consideration by our FO, in my opinion. Not sure what he'd cost at his age, but he's still a monster

Looks like the Iggles on giving up on the season, while the Cardinals are trying to go as deep into the playoffs as they can, by giving Murray another weapon.

Hard to hate a player when the player is pulling splinters out of his rear end.

Ertz was basically the Eagles version of Jaylon Smith this year. Team didn’t want him any longer.

Had Ertz had a injury guarantee in his contract, no way any team was trading for him.

I’m still bitter over Aaron Ross lol

 

[Stash]

Fletcher Cox?

Not after looking at his contract!

 

[NotForLong]

So AZ gets another weapon

When I hear people say the NFL is not Madden . . . then Tampa wins a Super Bowl and Arizona is aggressively pursuing one

Ertz was 11 receptions away from breaking their franchise record.

 

[ChronicCowboy]

Glad to see him out of the division..he was a thorn in our side for a while.

 

[Hawkeye0202]

Keep tell ya, this is all part of Howie Roseman 2022 plan........the guy I feel for is Hurts. They are using the kid as a placeholder this year knowing he has no shot as their future QB. IF I'm wrong. I'll eat my crow but I'm 100% confident they will acquire an elite vet QB ( Rogers, Wilson, Watson ) after the season. The problem with that is their roster has aged a bit.

 

[darthseinfeld]

Yeah. Depending on Wentz deal.

At 1-4 you gotta figure they will probably sit him soon after midseason to avoid giving up a top 10 pick.

If it conveys to a #2, it would still likely be the the 30's, which is still a pretty nice get for Philadelphia

 

[MountaineerCowboy]

However, you feel about the wisdom of their moves, you have to admit their front office isn't afraid to make big, bold moves. They have evaluated the situation and decided they have to unload & restock. I think they are right.

That's why they've actually had success recently.

I'd be glad to see McKeon get activated and maybe replace Jeremy Sprinkle, whom we could swap for a CB, perhaps?!

 

[darthseinfeld]

Ertz isn't close to what he was, but he is still a weapon and a starting caliber TE

 

[Established1971]

Did Adam get permission to release that news?

 

[TequilaCowboy]

Appears Philly is throwing in the towel on this season and is looking to rebuild. I believe they have three first round picks next April.

They've seen Dallas up close and personal and know they cannot catch them this year and so have begun their tank job. No other team will come out of the NFCE. Personally i think their QB and HC are also not a good fit, but don't tell them that. let them build their team with them.

 

[MountaineerCowboy]

Eagles have some draft picks coming up for next year's draft. 3 first rounds I believe

Not just 3 first round picks, but if the season ended today they'd have 3 top 10 picks.
