Eagles could reportedly trade for No. 2 overall after missing out on No. 1

The and cemented a blockbuster trade Thursday morning that and a slew of other picks back to the Titans. You can argue whether the Rams won the deal or whether the Titans won the trade, but there's no arguing the ramifications for the rest of the draft.A Andrew Thomas Jersey large number of NFL teams, particularly those picking early, are now reshuffling their plans for the draft and parsing through the rumors and information to make informed decisions about who they want to draft.The are the gatekeepers for the remainder of the picks because of their No. 2 overall position, and while many think they will take a quarterback there, it's far from guaranteed. In fact, Cleveland could stand pat and take a stud player like Myles Jack from UCLA or Jalen Ramsey from Florida State.Or they could really stir the Kool-Aid and try to trade down. One potential trading partner? The , who, according to Will Hernandez Jersey Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, were in the mix to move up to No. 1 overall as well. If the see the take the QB they want, don't rule out a trade with the for No. 2. Philly was in discu sions for No. 1. Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) If the Eagles -- or anyone -- are making a move up to No. 2, it's got to be for a quarterback. No one's making the bold play of giving up picks to go from No. 8 to No. 2 just for Jalen Blake Martinez Jersey Ramsey or Ezekiel Elliott. (Not that they aren't great players, but a team like Philly is already short a second-round pick as it is.)So the Rams do still hold cards here after leveraging themselves in position to be at the top of the draft. They could wait until draft night to take the player they want -- Wentz or Goff -- and leave the Browns hanging. . Either way it would make things much more difficult when it comes Riley Dixon Jersey to planning for trades.But let's say the Rams take Goff, who the Browns prefer, .The Browns are then in a position to call the Eagles, who reportedly like Wentz (and have / on the roster to bridge the gap while he develops), and see about making a deal that sends Darius Slayton Jersey Philly to No. 2 in exchange for picks and the No. 8 pick. It's not a brand-new idea actually, but if Cleveland is truly firing up a full-blown rebuild.Everything hinges on the Rams' selection matching up with the Browns' preference at quarterback, but it's entirely po sible the crazine s of the 2016 NFL Draft has only begun.
