Fletcher Cox has been the subject of trade discussions for over a year now and Ian Rapoport is reporting that teams around the NFL are still looking to acquire the future Hall of Famer.

Cox started 16 games for the Eagles during the regular season, logging 35 tackles, 3.5 sacks, two forced fumbles, and a fumble recovery in what many deemed another down year.

Cox dealt with questions about his fit in Jonathan Gannon’s defensive scheme and if not for a huge dead cap hit, could have been a potential candidate to be released.

Philadelphia has Javon Hargrave and Milton Williams at defensive tackle and could look to address the position during the first round of the NFL draft.

Five NFL trades that won’t happen in 2021… but should

With the NFL’s trade deadline right around the corner, here are five deals that won’t happen… but probably should.

For every trade that happens, there are 10 that don’t. Enterprising general managers are on the phone with other enterprising general managers all the time, and they will propose the most preposterous deals just to see where teams are with even their best players. Most of these out of the park ideas have no chance of happening, but even the weirdest deals have potential for both teams involved if the conditions are right.

So, with the NFL’s 2021 trade deadline coming in at 4:00 p.m. EST on Tuesday, November 2, here are five deals that could work well for all involved, as ridiculous as they may seem on the surface.

NFL trade news: Eagles getting calls about Fletcher Cox as deadline approaches

Here are several key takeaways from the news that teams from around the NFL have inquired about trading for Eagles star DT Fletcher Cox

The Eagles are preparing to take the field against the Lions in about two hours, but that hasn’t stopped the business of the NFL from reigning supreme on Sunday morning.

According to Ian Rapoport of NFL.com, teams around the league are clamoring to trade for Philadelphia star defensive tackle, Fletcher Cox.

Teams have been contacting the Eagles about Cox, figuring they could take a run at him to see if they could get him for a mid-to-late-round pick. On the heels of Cox airing grievances about the defense, teams have reacted. Cox is one of the core veterans GM Howie Roseman wants around, so he’s unlikely to part with him for anything less than a high pick.

With the Eagles sitting at 2-5 on the season, teams are expecting Howie Roseman to start selling off valuable assets.

Cox has just 11 tackles and 1 sack in 7 games this season and most recently publicly voiced his frustration about his usage in Philadelphia’s defensive scheme after the loss in Las Vegas last week.

Here are several key takeaways from the news.
