Eagles' Jaelan Phillips trade is yet another Howie Roseman all-in masterclass

The Philadelphia Eagles just seem to want it more than any other team, and their trade for Miami Dolphins edge defender Jaelan Phillips is the latest proof of that from GM Howie Roseman.

One could argue that trading a third-round pick for a player on an expiring contract is a foolish move. Come to find out that Roseman convinced interim Dolphins GM Champ Kelly to pay for a portion of Phillips' remaining salary as a premium for the Day 2 draft capital.

This is the type of proactive, aggressive move by a front office that most other fan bases fantasize about.
