Trades in the NFL don't always come when you expect. Last year, I wrote a column pitching 13 trades. The first deal on that list was a swap between the Eagles and Cardinals, with veteran tight end Zach Ertz making his way to Arizona. It might have taken a year, but Ertz eventually made his way to the Cards last week.
I'd love to take credit for being a genius, but being off by a full year means I don't get any. On top of that, in my deal, the Cardinals were sending Haason Reddick to the Eagles.
