Friday’s blockbuster trade involving the Eagles, Bills and Rams sure seemed to come out of nowhere, and isn’t the type of move you normally see in August.
On paper, though, it makes sense. Both Sammy Watkins and Jordan Matthews are entering the final year of their respective contracts, and neither have really developed into the player their teams hoped they would become, especially having been high draft picks.
The funny thing is, though, that Eagles fans who follow the team on social media may have known the move was coming, even as unexpected as it may have seemed at first glance.
