Expect a Sheppard Trade

It looks like the Eagles are fielding offers from the Saints, Rams, and Buccaneers. The Saints second round pick (#40) seems to be the best offer available. The Eagles are in love with Vanderbilt offensive tackle, Chris Williams, and they may used their first round pick and their acquired pick to move up. The likely target would be the Buffalo Bills who want to trade down and draft Devin Thomas.

There were rumors that the Buccaneers were going to add WR Michael Clayton to their offer, but the Eagles are not interested in him. The Rams were not willing to trade their second round pick (#33) in the draft.

Draft day is finally here and it will begin at 3pm today. We already know that Jake Long, an offensive tackle out of Michigan, is the first overall pick.
