If these Eagles trade reports are real we have to make this trade...
We get their 2015 and 2016 first and second round picks...
This is a no brainer situation, take the picks...Mariota has no shot of being a success in this league without Chip Kelly and we will very likely miss out on Amari Cooper...Nobody else is worth grabbing with that pick...
The only thing is if we take this trade, we're basically guaranteed to miss out on some of the other WRs (Kevin White & Devante Parker) and pass rushers (Shane Ray, Vic Beasley, Dante Fowler) as well.
But if you're ok with that, then pull the trigger.
If the Eagles wanted to trade up for Mariota, they certainly aren't going to wait for the Jets' position. They'll trade up to 4 or 5 and grab him then. I am not sold on the fact that the Titans won't take him at 2. Lot of misinformation being leaked this time of year.
I highly doubt the Titans take Mariota, he doesn't fit their system. Ken Whisenhunt likes big QBs with strong arms and whom are pocket passers. Mariota isn't a Whisenhunt QB.
After Tampa, there's no team in between us that I see taking him. Philly could try to trade up in front of the Jets if they feel we'll go ahead and take him though
