Dolphins gave him permission to seek a trade but it will likely cost a first rounder next year. He was the 11th pick last spring so a first next year for a top 11 drafted player is a good deal IMO. Especially at a position we want to strengthen. Sounds like Dallas is interested bit not sure how they could pull it off after the Cooper trade.

Very interested, but not for a first. It would take a while for him to learn the system, and then you control him for 2 years plus likely an expensive 5th year. I would give them 2 and 4, esp bc
we could recoup the 4 by cutting the straw man. LaGarrett and Vernon say hi.Russian reporters to Bobby Clarke: Can you imagine hockey without fights?

In any case we should be picking later than #11 so renting him to Miami for 1 year in exchange for moving up to the 11 spot seems like a great deal to me. Hopefully Howie has the same thought....Official Driver of the Eagles Bandwagon!!!

Originally posted by Jukin View PostFitzpatrick would fit the cheap labor bill since he is in the second year of a rookie contract. The draft picks are the cost of doing business. If we can get him for just a first rounder I do that deal. He is a top 11 pick (the mock I had back then had him ranked as the #2 safety in the draft and a top 15 pick). As a top 11 pick we would end up getting a steal since we will have the 32 pick in the draft next year

Maybe Howie is waiting to see how much Spence helps this weekend before he spends anymore money? As for Fitzie why not unless their software says no?"Hey Giants, who's your Daddy?"

Very interested in Minkah for a 1st rder and maybe a 6th or 7th. The Guy can play all 3 DB Spots & would Greatly improve that Secondary. I think waits until after Tonights Game to evaluate the DB's, the Starters are Solid but Zendejo looks shaky to me. Minkah & that Contract are worth it.Just give me ONE before I go!

Kinda depends on how they felt about him coming out and how they feel about his skill set now. He has taken away the questions of being able to play with the big boys and you would be giving up a late first rounder for an early pick. Also gotta know what the depth of this draft looks like. You might have one whale of a pick with far less risk than taking a shot in the draft. Howie has more than likely already thrown his hat in the ring if in fact they are interested .We're looking for people that are fundamentally different,” vice president of player personnel Andy Weidl said Saturday night. “The love and passion for football, it's non-negotiable. They're caring, their character, they do the right thing persistently, and they have a relentless playing style that you can see on tape. The motor, it burns hot. You see them finishing plays. They have a team-first mentality. They're selfless individuals.
