Colin Cowherd put on his Howie Roseman hat on Wednesday and says if he ran the Eagles he would give up the farm for Russell Wilson.
"If I ran the Eagles, I would give Seattle all my picks in the first round," Cowherd said. "Next year's first round as well. I'd give you four first round picks and I'd give you a player. If you want Darius Slay, as good as he is—Seattle needs a corner. I'd give you Darius Slay, four first-round picks. Russell Wilson, I'd believe, would dominate that division forever."
"Jalen Hurts is not going to win a division. You've got too many good coaches, too many good offenses, too many good quarterbacks."
Woah. That's a lot for a 33-year-old quarterback who has a $37 million cap hit in 2022 and a $40 million cap hit in 2023.

Slay, 31, has cap hits of $22 million and $23 million, respectively, in each of the next two seasons. He is coming off an excellent season where he recorded three interceptions and three touchdowns, reaching his fourth Pro Bowl.
There has been plenty of speculation about Roseman and the Eagles going after Wilson, someone they hoped to draft in 2012.

Philadelphia has three first-round picks in this year's draft plus some uncertainty at the QB position with Hurts, making them a possible landing spot for a plethora of quarterbacks who might become available this offseason, including Wilson of course.
