Eagles To Use Sheppard To Move Up The Draft? (1 Viewer)

[DeuceMcAllisterFan]

I’ve spoken to a source that told me that the Eagles will look to use cornerback Lito Sheppard in a trade that would allow them to move up in the first round of the draft. Apparently, they really want an offensive tackle and don’t believe their guy will last until #19.

Sheppard and first round swap?

Sheppard and first round swap?

Umm, yes please? I'd take Mayo at 19.

I keep hearing about one unknown team interested in trading for Lito on draft day and wouldn't be surprised if it was us. Think it would be great to get Sheppard just for moving down 9 spots.

 

[Super Dad]

I would die for that

 

[BlackNGoldblood]

I'm more convinced than ever that if we want to get the most value out of our early round picks we need to either trade up or trade down. That's because the guys we need won't be there at 10 or would be too much of a reach at that spot.

Payton will make this trade so we can take DeSean Jackson at 19

and get their 4th for our 5th and id call it a deal

 

[supersaint15]

If ellis is gone this trade will happen

 

[NOLAnuffsaid]

i would take sheppard in a minute.

now that leaves an interesting question, do we take LB Dan Connor or FS Kenny Philips?

yeah really moving down 9 spots for sheppard is a rip off we would need additional picks

who thinks DRC might be there at 19? could be a great way to massivly improve the secondary.

 

[supersaint15]

imagine doing this getting mayo and drafting laws in the 2nd

I actually wouldn't mind that at all, even if you were kind of joking. Sheppard + Jackson > only Rivers or whomever else we're slated to take at 10.

DRC is shaping up to be a huge disappointment.

Easily Kenny Phillips. Imagine if we came out of the 1st round with Lito Sheppard and Kenny Phillips. That would completely fix up our secondary. Mike Mckenzie and Lito Sheppard at corner. Kenny Phillips and Roman Harper at safety.

Now that I think of it, I'd rather have Lito Sheppard and Kenny Phillips than Sedrick Ellis, just maybe...
