I mean if the Patriots gave up a 2nd for Sanu and the 49ers gave a 3rd and 4th for Sanders a couple years back, Fletcher is much better than either, IMO, and a position easier to plug and play.
Defense has been above average, imagine adding Za'Darius, Jaire and Cox, 3 all-pros to it?
Mercilus, Gary, Smith, Smith, Cox, Clark, then even throwing in Garvin and Big Dean with how they have been playing, that is a deep hungry get after you front there.

I don't think the Eagles get a 2nd. I think a 3rd is the most they would get as Eagles media admits that Cox's play has been on the decline.
But I wouldn't be mad at giving up a 3rd either. No matter who we pick this decade, a 3rd round selection is the kiss of death for the Green Bay Packers.
And pretty much any price is worth it if it means we get that ring.

The only thing with Cox that is so surprising is that the Eagles moved so much money in his contract to signing bonus. To eat all that and then trade him is tough. I think that's why the price is higher. But that's what teams need to do now, see Von Miller.

If they turned down a 4th, bad move I think. Like 26 million cap hit next year, they are gunna have to release him for nothing.
Why is this the most confusingly-written reporting of a trade of all time?
Totally had to read it a few times. Like what team was LDT on now and where is he going?
I read Dan Brown as the Browns and thought there was a 3rd team involved.

No news...
But if we're looking at non-Geno Atkins DL - this guy played for LaFleur in Tennessee DaQuan Jones 6' 4 322 means he's a Big Dude capable of handling double teams and giving Kenny a breather
Although feel like if we really wanted him. Might have flipped them a pick or something.
He'll go through waivers, but given he has already, twice, I wouldn't be surprised if we get another shot at him if we wanted to. I wouldn't hate it.
Yeah it’s clear by now that he’s not very good at playing football, but familiarity with the scheme, team, and role might be enough.
But as a reminder, we still have 4 TEs on the roster right now without Tonyan. So no move is the most likely move

I was under the impression D-Jax played with Rodgers at Cal. Nope, they missed each other by a year; I got him mixed up with Marshawn Lynch who were both on the team in 2004. Still, I'm sure they are familiar with one another.
Jackson would be a huge boost to our return game. Not sure there's a role for him on O, though, which kinda puts him back at Square 1 if he leaves LA for that reason only to join us. We already have our deep threat in MVS and a quality slot receiver in Cobb, and this team runs though Jones and Adams on offense anyway. It's probably not a question of playing for a contender, either, seeing as LA is one of the top dogs.
