Trading for a defensive end is a sure-fire way for the Philadelphia Eagles to make sure they have an elite pass rush this season, a theory that some NFL pundits have already expressed. Still, as ITI’s own Geoffrey Knox pointed out in a recent story on one NFL writer’s proposal for an all-time bad trade, trading Lane Johnson for Jadeveon Clowney is foolish indeed.
Any logical Eagles fan would second the notion to kill that trade, but there is a scenario in which an offer for Clowney as a rental might be doable and acceptable.
