Thanks. I had a feeling Arizona might be interested but wasn't sure. Him along with DRC would be annoying to face for the next few years. He'd definitely be an upgrade from McFadden opposite DRC.
Being able to keep both my early 3rds and my early 4th was an added benefit. With that said i think it's a great trade for the Ravens as well. They basically reacquire the picks they traded for Anquan Boldin when they didn't see much of value for themselves in the first.
Yeah, good trade for both teams. Arizona needs help on D, though pass-rush is a bigger need, but if Wilson was there - it will be tough to pass a CB like him. I think he will be a top 20 pick come Apr 24th
Yeah, there is nobody on the board who could make in impact on a need position for the ravens. So i traded back 10 spots and got two more picks in a deep draft. Especially positions like 3-4 DE or MLB are positions than can be adressed in these rounds. So this trade was a win-win in imo.
Yeah, I liked the trade. It worked out great for both the teams. The Eagles really needed help in the secondary and viewed Kyle Wilson as a can't miss CB that late in the first. It was hard passing on him with the 24th pick but Mike Iupati was a huge need at that point and presented great value as well. You have to give up some to get some. Had 3 3rds and 2 4ths so i saw an opportunity.
After the Ravens traded for Anquan Boldin they had a huge void in the 3rd and 4th rounds in a deep draft. I'm sure Kyle Wilson would spark some interest here but be able to get a 3rd and 4th rounder while only going back 13 spots is a good trade for them.
According to the value chart this was great for both teams as well. I could definitely see a trade like this going down come draft night.
