It is conceivable that the deal could look like this:Braylon Edwards + #5for Sheldon Brown, Reggie Brown, #21 and 2010 2nd.EDIT: Not saying that's what I think it is, only that it is plausible that the values add up. I would think the Eagles would want to hold onto Sheldon and deal a DE instead and then take a DE with the 5.

I would hate this. I wouldn't mind seeing a top WR come in, but not at this price.

 

[zenzephyros]

Zen:

By the way... the actual rumor that ESPN posted was Edwards and a 5th rounder (not the #5) for Andrews and the #21. Although I cannot see this happening, it at least is in the realm of possibility.

DH:

Who from ESPN is reporting this? Just curious......

Zen:

I actually mistyped... S.Brown was in the deal too. I don't have a link (unfortunately), but this is what Clayton actually said. My brother heard it with his own ears and laughed over the internet rumors that magically turned the a 5th rounder into the #5 pick.

DH:

Interesting. Not what I heard from my source, but I very well may have mis-heard him. Also interesting Clayton is reporting it. He doesn't usually get much Eagles info, Sal is usually that guy.

For what it's worth, this is also the first time I've heard Sheldon's name in that particular deal.

I wish I heard it myself... so I could lend more credence to it. -----

Not sure if you guys read this:

http://www.philly.com/philly/sports/eagles...ossibility.html

When the Eagles signed Stacy Andrews in late February, many assumed it meant the end of the Jon Runyan era in Philadelphia.

And last week's trade for Jason Peters seemed to further cement that notion.

But in a radio interview with Mike Missanelli of ESPN 950, Runyan said the door is not completely shut on a possible return to the Eagles.

"I wouldn’t consider it closed," he said "There’s still possibilities out there. We’ll see what happens here. You never know. Crazy things can happen on draft day. You don’t know what they’re planning, if they’re trying to move someone or not. So you’re just gonna have to wait it out. And that’s really the whole process anyway. After the draft, kind of figure out who has holes and then kind of go out and poke around and figure out if people are interested or not."

It almost sounds like Runyan hasn't had the door shut on him by the Eagles, which is very intriguing considering that the line is more than full right now.

are you joking?break the deal into 2 trades:

Braylon for Reggie Brown (no brainer)

5th pick for 21st pick and a 2010 2nd (no brainer).... our 21st pick and a 2nd rounder should only get us to the teens on the trade chart.. instead, we move up to #5.

if you hated this then perhaps you are a browns fan?

Forgot the 2nd Brown?

yup and if the trade was Andrew and #21 for Braylon and a 5th rounder.. that makes no sense either... Braylon could be had for a 1st rounder (allegedly) so the Eagles are essentially trading Andrews for a 5th rounder? Not going to happen.

 

[Deranged Hermit]

Last tidbit before the draft unless I hear anything tomorrow morning: Talking to my buddy earlier today and the DE they were looking at slipped. Not saying who it is, but I do not believe that player will be there at 1.21. This means that, IMO, the possibility of them taking Moreno went up drastically.

 

[GroveDiesel]

I heard it announced on the radio. Didn't hear Clayton say it, but I heard the Cleveland radio guy talk about it. I was talking to my buddy in Ohio on the phone discussing it when it came up on the radio. He turned up the radio and held the phone up to try to prove me wrong. Instead, they said exactly the same thing I was saying.

And they DEFINITELY said the #5 overall pick, not a 5th round pick.

So it's possible that the Cleveland radio guy got it messed up. But I am 100% CERTAIN that they said the #5 overall pick when talking about it on the Cleveland radio station.

As for the trade, how about the #21 and McNabb for Edwards and the #5?

That is great news. I think Moreno needs to be the pick. In fact I think they should move up ahead of San Diego, Jets etc to guarantee getting him.

I read this 3 times, and still am slightly confused. If the DE that they liked has slipped, then wouldn't it be more likely that he would be there at #21, and less likely for Moreno? Don't mean to nitpick, but if anyone could explain to me what I am missing, I would appreciate it.

I thought Clayton said Braylon and a 5th round pick for Andrews or Sheldon, and the 21 overall

Well you could interpret it as, if his value slipped, he may be there at 21 to pick, but won't be taken by the Eagles.

 

[zenzephyros]

I think that we should just throw a first and fourth at Arizona to get Boldin. The Eagles offense would be absolutely unstoppable. Unfortunately, nothing less than that will get him... or Edwards for that matter, which is why Philly won't be making any trades other than draft pick transactions to move up/down in the draft order.

 

[Lehigh98]

DH,Just the fact that we get to imagine the possibilities of this deal is great. So if we are guessing, I am going with...Browns give B Edwards & #5Eagles give S Brown, R Brown, & #21

Huh??? What planet is this poster from? I always love the people who think that you can just trade their own junk for somebody else's prized possessions. I got a good laugh out of this trade proposal. Thanks!

But its the "Browns" and both their names are "Brown"! They are stocking up!

 

[scratcher]

After reading DH's new comments, I'm really starting to think the deal is:

#5 + Braylon for Andrews + #21 + 2010 pick

If so, I'm not too hot on this deal. Why give up Andrews who's the best lineman we have for a WR? Unless you're going to get a top OL with that pick, then it's not worth it IMO.

 

[Pip's Invitation]

As for the trade, how about the #21 and McNabb for Edwards and the #5?

Heh. Most of the Eagles' moves this offseason have occurred because the window on McNabb's time as a starter is closing. No way they'd do all this stuff and then go into the season with Kolb as the starter.

where there is smoke there is fire. Shawn Andrews is unhappy right now, his brother and Jason peters have just gotten a ton of dough from the Eagles, as newbies to the team. He has been an all pro guard and is only 26, he wants to get paid too, you have to believe. The Eagles would be dealing from a position of strength, and could rid themselves of a guy who will soo command a huge payday, but has shown some tenedencies to give them problems (emotionally and wanting a new deal). I think if the Iggles are looking to move on from Shawn Andrews now is the best chance to do it.They need a WR, everyone in the league could use an all pro OL. I think the Eagles hold the cards with this and I would expect to command a guy like Braylon and get something else in return for Andrews. JMO

What travdogg said.The DE the Eagles like will not, IMO, drop to them. There's always a chance, but I personally don't think it's a very good chance. Thus, I think the chances they'll take Moreno increases because that DE won't drop (again, IMO).

thanks...well I am an Eagle's fan so I could be thinking with my heart. But like I said, I think Andrews is a commodity, and I think many a team would pay a very high draft pick, perhaps even a first rounder for him. I know Cleveland wants a first rounder, but if the Eagles really offered Andrews the Browns would have to hop on that, Andrews is great, but I think Nick Cole filled in well at Guard, and has played in every game since being pickied up 2 years ago. I think Andrews just may be too much of a headache, and that's why this info has some legs, IMO. I could be wrong.I could see a deal that essentially is Braylon and a 3rd rounder for Andrews and a 5th...Talks of the Eagles acquiriung a 5th overall and Braylon seem a little too out of reach in my mond.

 

[jasvic]

Can someone point me to where Andrews said he was unhappy with his contract?

Only thing I remember reading was a "reporter" creating news and speculating that he might be upset, with nothing to back it up.

Maybe I missed it. Either way, I think dealing Andrews would be a mistake.

Well, I'm bored today so I've been thinking about it more. I don't think the Eagles are planning on parting with their #21 (else why would they be so concerned with who's dropping there). I think Andrews is worth 2 1st rounders personally while Braylon is certainly not. So my new revised guess is: #5 + Braylon for Andrews + 2nd round pick + later 2010 pickThat way, we'll have 2 1st rounders again. I don't think they'll go DE with the #5 anymore since they were looking for a DE to drop to #21. I think they'll grab Munroe if he's still there. If not, maybe they'll trade down that #5 with the Redskins who want Sanchez. Then they'll grab Moreno with the #21. This is fun!

Not sure if this is overstated, but does Jets being AFC hurt the Eagles chances? Not sure if you really worry about this or not if you are a GM.Also, Jets have 52, Giants 43 to the Eagles 53 in the 2nd round - at least as the picks stand now.

if the Browns trade Edwards and end up with zero first round picks in this draft the fans will burn the stadium down.no chance this happens, especially for an OL, which is far from their most pressing need.

My original thought was the birds somehow steal clevelands 2010 1st and the #5 and #21 stay were they are...Remember, the idea here is this trade will look last year's deal with Carolina look tame.So Edwards, 2010 1st and some 2009 pick for Andrews, some 2009 pick and some 2010 pick.I can't imagine any other player the Eagles have getting Cleveland's interest, but perhaps it does and that is what makes it tame... but for now, I'm think Andrews too...

Probably not but I would think it would be cheaper to re-do the contract for Brown. Boldin will get a lot more upfront than Brown will.

While I will concede that Shawn Andrews is an elite guard the guard position simply does not warrant two 1st round picks. Put it this way if Shawn Andrews was in this years draft and Braylon as well, Shawn would get pick in the mid teens or 20's while Braylon would be a top 2-10 pick. Your are absolutely insane if you think that the Eagles could trade Shawn Andrews for 2 1st round picks.

 

[Jason Wood]

I haven't listened to ESPN 950 in a long time, but with the draft coming up I turned it on at work.



My god, I have so little in common with so many of my 'fellow' Eagles fans.



Mike Missinelli just got done have a 10 minute conversation with a fan who said we should:

*** Trade 2nd rounder and "something else" for Boldin

*** Use a 'couple of our 4th round picks' to move back up into the 1st round for Pettigrew

*** Use 1.21 on Moreno



Where to begin with that nonsense?

I know - I'm listening for interviews and news.He had 2nd rounder and 3rd for Boldin, use 21 on Moreno and use 4th round magic to get back into the first for Pettigrew... really did not think through the main aspect of plan - how to get in position to draft Moreno and Pettigrew and trade the 2nd for Boldin... What's worse is Mike Miss did not seem to get how incomplete it was either.

OK, I must be one of those Naive Eagles fans...Aside from the Pettigrew scenario the other two are very possible scenarios. If the Eagles traded a 2nd and something else, and were lucky that Moreno fell to them they might do that.Now while I think it is unlikely, i think it is toally possible, what makes you think otherwise (other than you are a realist and it "just won't happen."

That's nice and all, but more than one person suggested scenarios where the Browns would give up BE and the #5 pick and not get the #21 pick back. I don't care if you include Shawn Andrews, William Andrews or Julie Andrews... that ain't gonna happen.Just trying to temper the out of control wishful thinking.Carry on.

 

[Domination]

Just a question for all of the Eagles fans in here...

How upset are you all going to be when Moreno is there at pick #21, and the Eagles don't take him? Either because they pick someone else or trade back.

 

[delusional]

I thought Clayton said Braylon and a 5th round pick for Andrews or Sheldon, and the 21 overall

uh...no GM would do this if they are giving up Andrews/Sheldon and hte 21st

It's the 4th round pick nonsense I'm talking about.1) We don't have any 4th round picks, much less 'several'2) Even if we did, multiple 4th round picks aren't going to net us a team's 1st rounderI can understand a fan talking nonsense, but shouldn't the host of an ESPN radio show and long-time local sports guy know the Eagles draft situation before commenting?

I wouldn't be angry if they took Moreno, but I would prefer they didn't. Assuming, of course, we use a 2nd or 3rd rounder on a RB instead. But judging from all the Eagles radio and message board and blog chatter, the fans will lose their minds if we don't draft him [and he's there]. I can't wait to see the overreaction if that transpires.

I wouldn't be extremely upset if the Eagles don't draft Moreno if they do something of merit with 21 instead - which I trust they will.

I think Eagles need to draft suitable 'backup' RB's for this season who have upside potential to replace Westbrook down the road. They do not NEED to draft Westbrook's replacement this year or in this draft.

I'm OK with Moreno, but would be happy with Wells or D Brown or McCoy later on for this year.

The man-love for Moreno is reminding me of the man-love for Ricky Williams leading up to this draft.

Eskin just said that one team has a offer on the table for Boldin. And its the Eagles.

FYI - 950 ESPN Philadelphia reports that Sal Pal reports:

Eagles have made an offer for Boldin - 2009 3rd, 2010 2nd and Winston Justice.

Also, Sal Pal reports that the sticking point in the Boldin trade talks appears to be Drew Rosenhaus - reportedly seeking Larry Fitz type cash in Boldin's new deal.

Easy to say when I'm not writing the checks, but pay him top dollar. You have the space and I feel he is worth it. Philly should be able to count on top level production over the next 3 years, which is all the contract is really good for anyways. C'mon...new, young tackles, new FB who can catch and convert short yardage, new WR1 and keeping round 1+2 picks (one of which should be RB help)? This could be a complete overhaul/upgrade of the offense.

Great... A new bidding war is opening up for Boldin, and the Eagles' response is a lowball offer featuring an '09 third rounder and Osi Umenyora's favorite turnstile.

for whatever its worth Eskin is denying that this is the offer being made... he is claiming the birds have made an offer but it is not the offer above.not sure if its a 610 vs 950 thing but just throwing it out there
