ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter joined the John Kincade Show for his weekly hit (8:10am every Wednesday) and spoke about, what else, the Eagles QB situation. It seems like every week there is another wrinkle in the saga but if the Eagles move on from Jalen Hurts what could they get for him? Most fans think it would be a 3rd day draft pick but Schefter told the Kincade gang that might not be the case.
“Denver, Indianapolis, Tampa, Carolina, Washington, Pittsburgh… that’s 6 teams right there, so where is everyone getting their quarterbacks from? If you’re looking at Jameis Winston, Marcus Mariota, or Mitchell Trubisky, would you be willing to trade your 2nd round draft pick to Philadelphia for Jalen Hurts? Oh yeah!”
But when could we expect some movement? Aaron Rodgers is putting out cryptic Instagram posts and Russell Wilson hasnt requested a trade. No one has seemed all that interested in coming to Philly but the whole situation is fluid. But when can we expect some movement?
“Here’s the deal. I think there already have been subtle calls, there are teams checking in on quarterbacks, again none of these QB situations are going to be quick… There’s not going to be a QB that gets franchise tagged… it’s not going to be a rush out of the gate this year.”
