Colin Cowherd takes a sly dig at the Philadelphia Eagles
Now obviously as this deal has been concluded, there have been discussions on which team benefitted more from this deal. Some say the Eagles might be at an advantage point given the future picks.
NFL insider Colin Cowherd has made a sarcastic comment targetted towards the Philadelphia Eagles on Twitter. Colin Cowherd said that this arrangement with the Saints would be even more beneficial for the Eagles if they actually knew how to do the ‘drafting thing’.
“I think the @Eagles “winning” a trade for more picks w the Saints, would be even cooler, if the Eagles were great at the drafting thing,” he tweeted on Tuesday.
Some of the fans responded to his tweet. One fan wrote in reply-“The #saints are gonna eat ass next year and have a tough schedule. That pick will be around #5-#7 overall in ‘23. Be even crazier when the #eagles trade down from #15 and PIT gets #saints Future QB and birds get their guy at #20 anyway.”
Another thinks it’s a deal which is in favour of the Philadelphia Eagles. “Just highway robbery what the Eagles did to the Saints….still have 4 1st round picks between this year and next, added a 2nd and 3rd round and one of the 1st round picks next year is the Saints…that pick could be inside the top 10.”
