With the trade deadline two weeks away and the Eagles squarely in the buyer’s column, let’s look at 15 potential deals it would make sense for Howie Roseman to explore.

Since this was an exercise on Tuesday’s show, I’ll also include Bo Wulf’s grades for each of the trade proposals we discussed.

More help on the edge

Eagles acquire Bradley Chubb from the Miami Dolphins in exchange for a third-round pick

There are a few edge rushers that could use rescuing from the ship that’s currently sinking in Miami, but Chubb feels like the one that would make the most sense for the Eagles to pursue. The 29-year-old has experience playing for Eagles defensive coordinator Vic Fangio, leads Miami with four sacks this season and doesn’t have any guaranteed money left on his deal past this year.

There are some questions with this one, though, most notably whether Chubb moves the needle enough in a market that could feature a handful of rushers who could make an impact. It’s also possible the bidding war for pass rush help drives the price up to a second-rounder here. (Bo’s grade: 86)

Eagles acquire Jermaine Johnson for a third-round pick

It might require slightly more to make this deal happen, but the Eagles’ history of valuing players like Johnson makes this one an interesting one to consider. The 26-year-old is a former first-round pick, with extremely high-level athletic traits and even has some connections inside the NovaCare Complex after being drafted by former Jets GM and current Eagles personnel director Joe Douglas. Johnson had 7.5 sacks in 2023 and made the Pro Bowl, but suffered torn Achilles last season and has just one sack in seven games this year on a struggling Jets defense.

With another year left on his rookie contract after this season, Johnson is exactly the type of upside play the Eagles have taken in the past and could develop into an impact player for an edge-rusher rotation that could still use one even after signing Brandon Graham out of retirement earlier this week. (Bo’s grade: 91)

Eagles acquire Maxx Crosby from the Las Vegas Raiders for a first-round pick, a fourth-round pick and Kelee Ringo

Using the compensation of two first-round picks and an established player for Micah Parsons earlier this year as a template, this would probably be the starting point when considering the price for Crosby if the Raiders considered trading him (big “if”). Crosby, 28, is older than Parsons and not quite at the same level, but would represent a true field-tilting presence off the edge and will cost accordingly nonetheless.

Citing the salary cap as the limiting factor is always a dangerous game with Roseman (and it’s worth keeping in mind that the Eagles were reportedly interested in acquiring Parsons before the season) but Crosby’s contract is still structured in a way where the team acquiring him would take on the brunt of his $30 million/year salary. Most of that deal isn’t guaranteed, but for a player like Crosby, restructuring might be difficult to do anyway.

With the necessary caveat that this seems highly unlikely, it would be the type of move Roseman would at least explore if Crosby becomes available.

Secondary solidifiers

Alontae Taylor from the New Orleans Saints for Kelee Ringo and a third-round pick

With 43 starts in 54 career games, Taylor would solve the Eagles’ No. 2 cornerback woes and also give the team another young building block in a secondary already full of them. The 26-year-old has inside-out versatility with high-level physical traits at 6-feet, 199 pounds.

As a former second-round pick out of Tennessee, Taylor checks plenty of the boxes the Eagles covet with draft pedigree, elite athleticism and an argument to be made that his best football is still ahead of him. The Saints would reportedly consider offers for Taylor, but it’s worth keeping in mind it might require a premium price to dislodge him.

For this exercise, Ringo and a third seems to be at least a starting point. Saints coach Kellen Moore will have some familiarity with Ringo from last season and defensive coordinator Brandon Staley could view him as a high-upside developmental player with experience playing in a similar scheme. (Bo’s grade: 96)

Eagles acquire Denzel Ward from the Cleveland Browns for two third-round pick

We won’t spend too much time on this one because A. It would be a steep price at a position the Eagles have already used some draft capital trying to address and B. Ward is on an expensive contract that would be prohibitive for the Browns to trade during the season.

With Roseman and Cleveland general manager Andrew Berry, there’s always the potential for unexpected trades and complex salary-cap maneuvers, but this still seems like one with too many obstacles even though Ward would give the Eagles arguably the best cornerback trio in the NFL. (Bo’s grade: 90)

Eagles acquire L’Jarius Sneed and sixth-round pick from the Tennessee Titans for a third-round pick

Another veteran corner on a struggling team, Sneed hasn’t been as dominant as he was in years past but could still represent an upgrade for the Eagles at outside cornerback. He’s 28 years old and has shown he can be a reliable press-coverage cornerback on a Super Bowl contender in the past and shouldn’t be as expensive to acquire given the Titans struggles this season.

This one is somewhat reminiscent to the Eagles acquiring Darius Slay, although it’s important to remember at the time of that trade there were legitimate questions around how Slay would age as he approached his age-29 season.

(Known Sneed appreciator Bo’s grade: 96).

Eagles acquire Cam Taylor-Britt from the Cincinnati Bengals for a fourth-round pick

If the Eagles want to add another cornerback to the depth chart without paying a hefty price, Taylor-Britt would be a prospective starter available for slightly less. The 26-year-old has 39 career starts in 43 appearances, but hasn’t been a consistent starter for the Bengals this season.

Perhaps the Eagles feel like the former second-round pick would represent an upgrade over Ringo, Adoree’ Jackson, and Jakorian Bennett. If so, an early Day 3 pick makes sense to expend. (Bo’s grade: 51)

The final offensive piece

Eagles acquire Dawson Knox from the Buffalo Bills for Kelee Ringo

Buffalo may have incentive to move on from Knox, who is in Year 2 of a four-year, $52 million contract extension but contending for snaps with rookie tight end Jackson Hawes as an inline blocker in the Bills offense.

If Knox is available, he’d fit well into what the Eagles want to do offensively as a second tight end capable of holding up as a blocker while also posing a threat as a receiver. That said, there may be younger, cheaper tight-end options that would also be available on the trade market. (More on that later … Bo’s grade: 82)

Eagles acquire Kyle Pitts and Arnold Ebiketie from the Atlanta Falcons for a third-round pick

Why not double down on draft pedigree? Both Pitts and Ebiketie were top 40 picks and Pitts even starred at Archbishop Wood and grew up in Abington. Ebiketie has a slightly less local connection, but some nonetheless as a Maryland native who played at Penn State.

Pitts is still just 25 years old, which is important to consider when measuring the upside that made him the fourth pick in the 2021 NFL draft despite five years of average production for the Falcons. His rookie contract expires at the end of this season, though, which makes trading for him slightly less straightforward unless the Eagles are willing to risk losing him on the open market this offseason.

Ebiketie might not represent the impact rusher the team could use, but the 26-year-old had six sacks in each of the last two seasons and would be another explosive option capable of working in the rotation. He’s also on the final year of his rookie deal, though. (Bo’s grade: 91)

Eagles acquire Chig Okonkwo from the Tennessee Titans for a fourth-round pick

Okonwko could be an expendable piece for the Titans because his contract expires at the end of the season, but he’d also be an interesting addition to the Eagles’ tight-end room. At 6-3, 238 pounds, the 26-year-old would be more of receiving threat with some long-term upside rather than a true inline blocker, though. (Bo’s grade: 86)

Eagles acquire Mark Andrew from the Baltimore Ravens for a fifth-round pick

Andrews fits squarely into the ring-chasing veteran category, but he’d be a solid No. 2 tight end for the Eagles going into the postseason stretch and should be capable of standing in for Dallas Goedert if necessary for a few weeks. He’s not the All-Pro-caliber player he was a few seasons ago, but he’s could still provide value as a one-season rental on an expiring contract. (Bo’s grade: 92)

Rapid-fire fun ones

Eagles trade Sydney Brown to the New England Patriots OR Minnesota Vikings for a 2026 fifth-round pick (Bo’s grade 85)

Eagles acquire Michael Mayer for Kelee Ringo and a sixth-round pick (Bo’s grade: 85)

Eagles trade Sam Howell to the Los Angeles Chargers for Trey Lance (Bo’s grade: 0)

Eagles acquire Jack Stoll and a seventh-round pick for a sixth-round pick (Bo’s grade: 98)

Eagles acquire Kayode Awosika from the Detroit Lions for a sixth-round pick (Bo’s grade: 99)
