Trading Jordan Matthews makes sense for the Eagles

Yes, Jordan Matthews has good numbers over the first three seasons of his career, but in a way, his numbers almost kind of work against the possibility of him staying an Eagle past 2017. So if you can get something for him now, like, say, a third round pick, it might be wise to take it before you lose him for nothing this time next year.

Report: Eagles will tender restricted free agent TE Trey Burton at second-round level

Burton is a special teams standout, and at a minimum, a quality third tight end who has the potential to do a variety of things in the offense. In 2016, Burton had 37 receptions for 327 yards and 1 TD. On special teams, he had eight tackles and two forced fumbles. In 2015, he had 13 tackles.

Brandin Cooks makes sense for the Eagles in pretty much every way possible

Brandin Cooks is fast, and quick, with the ability to take the top off the defense on long pass plays, and the ability to run after the catch for big gains on short pass plays. Almost as importantly as what he would give the Eagles on the field, he makes a lot of sense from a financial standpoint.

Eagles probably won't spend big on cornerbacks in free agency

Noticeably absent from the rumor mill are any mentions of the Eagles and their interest in any of the cornerbacks in this year's free agent class, despite corner being every bit as big a need as wide receiver.
