Philadelphia Eagles: 4 Horrendous trades during Doug Pederson’s tenure

The NFL trade deadline is now ancient history, but we can still revisit the worst trades the Philadelphia Eagles made during the Doug Pederson era (so far).

By the end of the coming weekend, you probably won’t hear the term ‘NFL trade deadline’ again, unless, of course, there’s a blockbuster deal and everyone sees that guy has led his team to the Super Bowl and was a key cog in them winning a Lombardi Trophy. There’s also this if you’re a Philadelphia Eagles fan. Does anyone believe that Doug Pederson‘s chances of leading this team to a Super Bowl have increased dramatically just because they added Genard Avery?

Ladies and gentlemen, these days it’s hard for an NFL team to legitimately take a huge leap just because one guy shows up. We’re talking about a game where 22 men are on the field at the same time. It’s also ridiculous to believe that adding those key guys at key positions doesn’t sometimes put a team over the top either.

With that being said, another NFL trade deadline has come and gone. Philly made no moves other than adding Avery, and it appears that they are no better or worse than they were before the day began. At least this can be said. At least they haven’t screwed themselves either. You can best believe that there were some times that they did.

Here are the worst trades of Doug Pederson’s coaching tenure so far.
