If they got a 4th out of this, and they swapped from 8 to 13, it's not tragic.
If this ends up true...**** it...
Vaark called this bull**** from day one...granted I will wait until the deal is final, but damn...
Tbaum is trying to kill the franchise and currently has one foot on the neck....
If you go by Draft trade value charts you get the following.
Going from 8 to 13 is a difference of 250 points.
Eagles giving us the 114th pick is worth 66 points.
So we lost 184 in draft points which is equivalent to last player selected in the 3rd round or the 1st player selected in the 4th round.
We gave up an early 4th rounder in compensation for the trade essentially.
To all the people bitching about moving down in the draft:
Some of the differences between #8 and #13 the past few drafts.
2015 NFL Draft:
#8 Vic Beasley (Atlanta Falcons)
#13 Andrus Peat (New Orleans Saints
2014 NFL Draft:
#8 Justin Gilbert (Cleveland Browns)
#13 Aaron Donald (St. Louis Rams)
2013 NFL Draft:
#8 Tavon Austin (St. Louis Rams)
#13 Sheldon Richardson (New York Jets)
2012 NFL Draft:
#8 Ryan Tannehill (Miami Dolphins)
#13 Michael Floyd (Arizona Cardinals)
Talent is there... just depends who we get at the end of the day. Stop being negative fools like there's no talent down 5 spots in the draft.
You guys gotta be kidding me lol... Over dramatic much? Jesus...

Quit using facts man.. Clearly we ruined our franchise moving down 5 spots because there is absolutely zero talent past pick #8.
Picks and money, picks and money.
