Schefter says the Eagles and Dolphins will also swap first round picks. How does Howie do it!?
Miami will acquire the players from the Eagles plus compensatory draft picks. ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports the Dolphins will drop down to the Eagles’ 13th pick in April’s NFL draft. The Eagles will move up to the Dolphins’ No. 8 pick.
Philly sports teams can never catch a break
Sure they can; Sixers big man Joel Embiid breaks his foot annually, so have some faith.
Ugh, way to kick us while we’re down
