Intresting Trade I saw on Eagles Forum

[Munch4455]

Eagles Receive: 9th Pick

Panthers Receive: Asante Samuel and 15th Pick

Would you guys pull the trigger?

I think I would, not much value at 9 for a spot we really need. Trade down, pick up a bonafide starter to play opposite Gamble, and take the BPA at 15 for a position we need.

[JawnyBlaze]

Eh, Samuel is good but he's also old. And I think he's on the last year of his huge contract anyway, isn't he? I dunno.

[DaCityKats]

plus he has a 8.4 million base salary next year so il pass. i thought you were going to say they send us their 1st and their 2 2nd rounders.

[Jackofalltrades]

I'd do it for sure. Maybe take Barron at 15, or Martin. Another CB or OLB in the second. You get a proven guy while you still get to see what Hogan can do. Samuel had a very good year last year once the D figured out what it was going to be.

[Clicheking]

Thanks but no thanks. Would'nt be long before he's accusing Marty of playing fantasy football.

[jb_online]

Wow, that would be tempting... I haven't seen him play in a while, but if he is still elite, I might have to do that. I know he's costly, but just think how much of a boost our defense would get from having him on the field.

[Cat'sGrowl]

Resructure Samuels contract and it's a done deal. If it's only got one year left, Id want them to...I believe it's called a sign-and-trade, yes?

[rayzor]

his age and his contract bother me.

i think he would for sure be an upgrade and maybe we could get a couple decent years out of him.

it would at least take care of CB this year so we wouldn't have to worry about addressing it and could focus attention on DT, OLB and FS in the draft.

[panther4life]

Sure i'd love to have Asante and a top 15 pick. Fills the same need the 9th likely would have been used on anyway and we will still find a starter at 15. Sucks he's already 31 but still one of the best in the game at the moment.

[rayzor]

i'd rather have the bengals 2 first rounders, fwiw.

[C47]

I think I would rather throw in our second along with 8/9 and see if you could get 15, DRC and a third out of them....not likely, but I really don't think Samuel is worth moving to 15 for....

[The TrueGrit]

Pass on trading high draft picks for players in their 30's with huge contracts. Wait til the Eagles cut him, and they will, sign him cheap.

[Cat'sGrowl]

I think I would rather throw in our second along with 8/9 and see if you could get 15' date=' DRC and a third out of them....[b']not likely, but I really don't think Samuel is worth moving to 15 for....

I'd be horrified if we made this trade.

We move down out of the range of the top tier picks, give up a very valuable second, and in turn acquire a CB most Eagles fans would tell you is overrated and a third.

I would do this if there is some contract restructuring involved, as we desperately need a CB and we can still find a quality starter at 15.
