2020 1st, 2020 2nd, Dallas Goedert and Andre Dillard.

They're not going to give us Dillard. If you think highly enough of a LT to take him in the first round and place him as the heir apparent to a 37-year-old, you don't trade him the same season you drafted him in.

I could see something like a 2020 first, a 2020 second/2021 first and a player. If I were the Jaguars, I'd ask for a 2020 first, a 2021 first, Zach Ertz and Jordan Howard. Ertz would hold down the fort at TE for a couple of years (under contract through the 2021 season) while the team sees if they've got a player in Josh Oliver, or if another trip to the well is needed.

Howard is a slightly different story, and there are two reasons I think the Eagles might be willing to throw him in. One, Miles Sanders. Drafted in the second round this year and looking really good for them. Two, Howard's contract is up after this season. If the Eagles really wanted to invest heavily in Howard, they probably wouldn't have drafted Sanders that high. So why not let us take him off their hands and deal with re-signing a running back who's worth starter money, but who the Eagles may not want to give starter money to? Light a fire under Three-point-fournette and give us a fallback plan if Fournette continues to find the hole and run straight away from it.
