A few players the Eagles likely wouldn't mind trading for draft picks

by Jimmy Kempski

The Philadelphia Eagles have made three picks in the 2019 NFL Draft. They only have two remaining. If they only make those picks and don't find a way to add more picks, they will have only made five picks. Trust me, I double-checked the math on that. And so, the Eagles will likely be looking to trade some of their veteran players for more picks, difficult (and rare) as that may be once the draft is already underway. By popular request, here are some players who might make sense in a trade.
