NFL Network draft analyst Daniel Jeremiah offered a wild trade that would send Russell Wilson from the Seattle Seahawks to the Philadelphia Eagles.
Brace yourselves for what is set to be another eventful offseason for the Seattle Seahawks and quarterback Russell Wilson. A report from NFL Network insider Ian Rapoport noted that Wilson is looking to “explore his options” regarding where to play. Of course, that means everyone will be fixated to their phones in the coming months, waiting for a Twitter notification about whether Wilson will play in Seattle or get traded elsewhere.
NFL Network draft analyst Daniel Jeremiah wanted to have a fun discussion regarding a potential trade that would send Wilson from the Seahawks to the Philadelphia Eagles.
Take a look at the scenario in his tweet below:
NFL Draft analyst offers wild Russell Wilson-Eagles trade scenario
It is no secret that the Eagles have a ton of draft picks at their disposal for them to potentially make a huge trade that could send shockwaves throughout the NFL. Philadelphia gained two additional first-rounders in this year’s draft, thanks to their trade with the Miami Dolphins and for flipping quarterback Carson Wentz to the Indianapolis Colts.
The Seahawks are without a first-round pick this year due to their trade with the New York Jets that brought safety Jamal Adams to Seattle. With Jeremiah’s proposal, they would get three first-rounders (No. 15, 16, 19) this year to help add to their roster that finished 7-10 on the season.
Of course, this will all hinge on whether the Seahawks would accept the deal, and if Wilson wants to play for the Eagles. That will certainly make things interesting, especially as we inch closer to the start of the 2022 league year and the NFL Draft.
Wilson to Seattle for three 2022 first-round picks and a 2023 second-rounder. What do you say Eagles and Seahawks fans? Deal or no deal?
