Eagles to Trade Up to #1 Overall?

[Mr. Scot]

Kelly might be crazy enough to try it.

I'd laugh my ass off if the Bucs accepted a trade for the #1 pick only to watch he Eagles take Winston rather than Mariota

[KendrickPanther]

Winston is good at football but he could also plumet that franchise even further with his antics.

I am not trying to be flippant when I say this, but I could care less.  No one has a crystal ball. Winston could be great, or he could suck. The same goes for any picks that they would acquire.  As long as we take care of our business, that's all I am really concerned with.  As for draft picks who haven't established themselves, anything can and does happen.  G-man does give me a sense of security however.

 

You are very correct.  I don't support moving up the ladder that much just to take a certain player.  You need picks more than focusing on one individual.

I think everyone on this forum should watch the movie Draft Day.

It basically cost the Redskins 3 first round picks and a second to move from the 6th to 2nd on the draft.

Eagles going from 20 to 1 is beyond what I could even guess. They would have to give up like there next 5-6 first round picks to have the #1 overall spot

3 1sts and a few 2nds

That was bascially the cost for the Washington to move up for RGIII. 6th to 2nd.

That isn't nearly enough for a MUCH bigger move

If I'm Tennesee, I act like Mariota is the second coming, and try to get Philly to jump.

You mean he's not?

I watched it the other day.

When the other teams would clown Kevin Costner, I thought that's probably how teams treeated Marty Hurney. I mean, can you imagine how hard the Patriots were laughing when we traded up for Armanti?

I don't trust Winston if I am a GM.

[JJman Returns]

I've started a cult following for Mariota. I really hope Tampa doesn't get him. So I'm fine if they take Winston.

Foles will suck for Tampa under Lovie Smith's offense that was designed by a mental patient on Valium with crayons

[panthers34]

Winston= Vince Young/ Jamarcus Russell... Bring him to Tampa please

[Snake]

If its was us picking between Newton and more picks, I know what I would pick. Yet we are talking Lovie Smith here so I could totally see him trading for a vet QB and more picks on defense. No matter what QB goes to the Bucs they will be a game manager.

If I am the bucs, I take the picks and Foles.  I then use most of the picks of them to move up to #2, drafting Winston.  When the dust settles, I get Winston, Foles, and a second rounder.  I then trade Foles for another first rounder in 2016.  Essentially, if it works out, I would get Winston, the player I wanted all along, and a first and second rounder.
