Ladies and gentlemen, if you’re a Philadelphia Eagles, you can go to bed smiling after the first night of the 2021 NFL Draft. The guy many of you wanted, DeVonta Smith, is a Bird now. There isn’t a member of the Inside The Iggles staff that doesn’t love the pick, especially after seeing who was already taken and who’s available.
The question is, however, was it necessary to trade up to land him? Philly swapped first-round picks with the rival Dallas Cowboys.
