If the Philadelphia Eagles want to bolster their roster, they have options.

None of us will ever be given the opportunity of playing the general manager role outside of our Fantasy leagues or the Franchise or MUT (Madden Ultimate Team) modes on EA Sports’ Madden game, but that won’t stop any Philadelphia Eagles fan from channeling their inner-Howie Roseman and throwing out a few redrafts or potential trade packages that Philly’s G.M. and vice president would never pay attention to.

Call it a crazy theory, but good old Howie is a little better at his job than we give him credit for being. That’s why he sits in the chair. That doesn’t mean we can’t overstate our interest in possible trades for Yannick Ngakoue or get pumped over the Jamal Adams rumors. Maybe we’re all so fired up because we can play the role of imaginary G.M. without having to worry about anyone firing us.

The 2020 regular season approaches (at least we hope so), and even though Philly addressed many of their needs in free agency and the most recent draft, it still feels like something is missing from what could be a playoff team. Could a preseason trade or another roster shakeup be on the way? If that’s something in this proud franchise’s thought process, there are guys on the roster who would serve as decent trade capital. Here are four of the more obvious choices. Be sure to forward this over to Mr. Roseman if you have his contact info.
