I faced a lot of heat for this prediction, but it turns out the Eagles are in fact asking for a second-round pick for Tanner McKee. It doesn’t mean they’ll get it, but that is what the Eagles value McKee as. FWIW: Pittsburgh still does not have an answer at quarterback.

@KBeckEagles @JimmyKempski Should be a conditional 3rd that can become a 2nd based on PT

@KBeckEagles @JimmyKempski Stand firm @Eagles. This is the right value. Whether he’s dealt or not, Tanner is a top 5 backup in the league and better than 1/4 of the starters. If a team isn’t as confident in their starting qb as we are in our backup, that’s the price. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

@KBeckEagles @JimmyKempski He would THRIVE in Pittsburgh. Run 1st offense with two big targets outside. Tanner would do well. I would be happy if the Birds used Tanner to trade up 2 spots w Pitt & got like a 4th rounder back. 2 spots in a thin draft matters.

@KBeckEagles @JimmyKempski Pittsburgh can afford to tank now that the 9-8 merchant is gone

@KBeckEagles @JimmyKempski Cards have a high third. No qb

@KBeckEagles @JimmyKempski And the Eagles shouldn’t come off that price.

@KBeckEagles @JimmyKempski He’s better than hurts
