Howie Roseman got his guy on Thursday night but it came with some controversy after the Eagles GM first refused to trade up for CeeDee Lamb and then he passed on Justin Jefferson for Jalen Reagor.
The Eagles entered the NFL Draft hoping for a run on tackles and quarterbacks and that’s what initially happened, but not even Jerry Jones could have imagined CeeDee Lamb sitting there at No. 17 overall.
Roseman not only refused to move up for Lamb, but he ensured that the Eagles will deal with him twice a year for the next decade.
When No. 21 came out, Roseman pulled the trigger on Jalen Reagor of TCU, bypassing Jefferson, Brandon Aiyuk, and others.
