The Indianapolis Colts’ interest in trading for Carson Wentz was confirmed over the weekend, and the consensus buzz indicates that they are currently entrenched in negotiations. However, that process appeared to hit a snag when it was reported that the Philadelphia Eagles were seeking at least two first-round draft picks in return for him.

Anybody who watched Wentz this past season knows that he isn’t worth anything more than a first-round pick AT BEST (many would argue a single second-rounder), so to call the Eagles’ evaluation of him unreasonable would be hitting the nail right on the head.
