Eagles need the 49ers to keep Jordan Matthews

CAUTION: COMPENSATORY DRAFT PICK DISCUSSION TRIGGER WARNING.

I know some people get annoyed with nerdy comp pick talk so if you’re one of those, well, you can’t say I didn’t warn you.

As it currently stands, the Eagles are projected to receive two compensatory picks in the 2020 NFL Draft for losing both Nick Foles and Golden Tate in free agency.
